Multiply the second equation by 3, so 4x-y=6 becomes 12x-3y=18.

x + 3y = -5
+ (12x-3y = 18)
______________
13x = 13

So x = 1

Plug x = 1 into any of these, such as 1 + 3y = -5, which becomes 3y = -6, and then y = -2.
x = 1
y = -2

What is the value of x? <br><br><br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B5%7D%20x%20-%20%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10%

Answer:

x = \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{4}{5} x - \frac{1}{10} = \frac{3}{10}

Multiply through by 10 ( the LCM of 5 and 10 ) to clear the fractions

8x - 1 = 3 ( add 1 to both sides )

8x = 4 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2}

Charles can do a job in 1 hour, bill can do the same job in 2 hours, and bob can do the job in 3 hours. How long does it take th
KiRa [710]
Charles can do the whole job in an hour, Bill can do 1/2 of the job in an hour, and Bob does 1/3 of the job in an hour.  Therefore, they do a total of 1+1/2+1/3=11/6 of the job in an hour, meaning it takes them 6/11 of an hour.  This is 6/11*60=360/11 minutes, or approximately 33 minutes.
