X=y-2
2y=5x-17
Substituting for x into the second equation, we find
2y=5(y-2)-17
2y=5y-10-17
-3y=-27
y=9
So x=7
Thus, the two numbers are 7 and 9.
In simplifying inequalities, there are a few things that you have to remember. Here are some:
<span>Many simple inequalities can be solved by adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing both sides until you are left with the variable on its own.
But these things will change direction of the inequality:<span>Don't multiply or divide by a variable (unless you know it is always positive or always negative)
We simplify as follows:
2i/2<6u/2
i<3u</span></span>
Christine crawled:
3 ft* (3/4)= 2.25 ft.
3 ft+ 2.25 ft= 5.25 ft
We already know that 1 ft= 12 in.
5.25 ft* (12in/ 1 ft)= 63 in.
The total distance the two children crawled together is 63 in~
Answer:
1. y = -5x+2
