The two numbers are -6 and 7
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that eight times a number plus five times another number is -13
The sum of two numbers is 1
To find: the two numbers
Let the two numbers be "a" and "b"
From given information,
Eight times a number plus five times another number = -13
eight times a number "a" + five times another number "b" = -13
8a + 5b = -13 ---- eqn 1
Also given that sum of two numbers is 1
sum of two numbers = 1
a + b = 1 ---- eqn 2
<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2 to find values of "a" and "b"</u></em>
From eqn 2,
a = 1 - b ----- eqn 3
Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 1
8(1 - b) + 5b = -13
8 - 8b + 5b = -13
8 - 3b = -13
-3b = -13 - 8
-3b = -21
<h3>b = 7</h3>
Substitute b = 7 in eqn 3
a = 1 - 7
<h3>a = -6</h3>
Thus the two numbers are -6 and 7
Answer:
15/7
Step-by-step explanation:
8/7 + 7/7 = 8+7 = 15
Therefore, the sum of 8/7 + 7/7 is equals to 15/7
Answer:
5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3=4/6
4/6+1/6=5/6
Answer:
The answer is: 7% ; 13% ; 0.15 ; 4/25 ; 21/100 ; 0.28
The gcf of 12/15 is 3 (simplest terms is 4/5)
