Answer:

x^2 - 5x = 14

x^2 - 5x-14 = 0

Now, we have to find the multiples of -14 and numbers that add/subtract to -5; this helps to find the factors.

-7+2 = -5

-7*2 = -14

Based on the above info, we can find out my factors; they are:-

(x-7)(x+2)

Solve the system by substitution.<br> 4y =<br> 5x -10y =-50

Trava [24]

Answer:

$x = -20 ; y =-5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Eqn. 1 ----> 4y = x

Eqn. 2 ----> 5x-10y = -50

(Simplifying eqn.2 further)

$=>5(x-2y)=-50$

$=>x-2y=\frac{-50}{5} =-10$

(Substituting the value of x from eqn. 1)

$=>4y-2y=-10$

$=>2y=-10$

$=>y =\frac{-10}{2} =-5$

Now, substituting the value of y in eqn. 1 ,

$x = 4*(-5)=-20$
