What is 5x - 8y= 24?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Fittoniya [83]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 8y = 24

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8y' to each side of the equation.

5x + 8y + -8y = 24 + -8y

Combine like terms: 8y + -8y = 0

5x + 0 = 24 + -8y

5x = 24 + -8y

Divide each side by '5'.

x = 4.8 + -1.6y

Simplifying

x = 4.8 + -1.6y

You simply put 40 over a hundred and 55 over n (which is the number were trying to find)  so you do cross multiplication. 55 times a hundred and after you get the answer. You divide it by 40 and should get 137.5.
