<u>To make this problem solvable, I have replaced the 't' in the second equation for a 'y'.</u>

Answer:

<em>x = -9</em>

<em>y = 2</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solve the system:</u>

2x + 3y = -12       [1]

2x + y = -16       [2]

Subtracting [1] and [2]:

3y - y = -12 + 16

2y = 4

y = 4/2 = 2

From [1]:

2x + 3(2) = -12

2x + 6 = -12

2x = -18

x = -18/2 = -9

Solution:

x = -9

y = 2

What is the answer to 9-x over 5
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{9-x}{5} = 3

Multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction

9 - x = 15 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

- x = 6 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

x = - 6

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

52 young calves

Step-by-step explanation:

At a dairy farm the ratio of adult milking cows to young calves was 9:2. If there were 234 adult milking cows at the farm, how many young calves were there?

The ration is given as:

adult milking cows to young calves

= 9 : 2

= 234 : x

= 9/2 = 234/x

x = Number of young calves

Cross Multiply

9 × x = 2 × 234

= x = 2 × 234/9

x = 468/9

x = 52

Hence, the number of young calves on the farm is 52.
