Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Cramer's rule, the value of x is ...

x = 7

Answer:
x = -10/13
Step-by-step explanation:
10x + 7 = -3x - 3
Add 3x to both sides
10x + 3x + 7 = -3x + 3x - 3
13x + 7 = 0x - 3
13x + 7 = -3
Subtract 7 from both sides
13x + 7 - 7 = -3 - 7
13x + 0 = -10
13x = -10
Divide both sides by 13
13x ÷ 13 = -10 ÷ 13
1x = -10/13
x = -10/13
Answer:
Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52
Step-by-step explanation:
In 3 years their ages will add up to 71 so you have to subtract 6 as there are two of them to get 65. Lacy's age is represented by x and since Jack is 4 times older his age is represented by 4x. So added together their age is 5x. So 5x=65. Then 65/5=13. So 13=x. So Lacy is 13 and Jack is 52 as 13x4 is 52.
