Answer:
x = 1
y = -2
Explanation:
First, solve for x by subtracting 7y from both sides of the first equation and then divide both sides by -5.
-5x + 7y = -19
-5x + 7y - 7y = -19 - 7y
-5x = -19 - 7y
-5x/ -5 = -19 - 7y/ -5
x = -19 - 7y/ -5
Next, substitute the value of x into the second equation and solve.
6 - (-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
Then, solve for y
- 6(-19 - 7y)/ 5 - 2y = 10
-6(-19 - 7y) - 10y = 50
114 + 42y - 10y = 50
144 + 32y = 50
32y = 50 - 144
32y = -64
32y/ 32 = -64/ 32
y = -2
Finally, substitute the value of y into the x value we found earlier and solve
x = - 19 - 7y/ 5
x = - 19 - 7 • -2/ 5
x = 1
Answer:
3) 8
4) 5.25 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
3) cross multiply:
36 × 10 = 360
45 × x = 45x
equate them both:
360 = 45x
divide both sides by 45
360 ÷ 45 = 8
x = 8
4) 8 people : 3 cups of flour
14 people : how many cups?
14 ÷ 8 = 1.75
to get from 8 people to 14 people we multiply by 1.75, so do the same thing to the 3 cups:
3 × 1.75 = 5.25 cups
