Answer:
x = 4 and y = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
-5y + 8x = -18
5y + 2x = 58
First you will want to get rid of y from both equations, so you add both equations together.
You will get 10x = 40, then subtract 10 from both sides and you get x = 4.
Now substitute x as 4 in any of the equations to get y.
-5y + 32 = -18
-5y = -50
y= 10
<u>Answer:</u>
x = 4
y = 10
Answer:
31/40
Step-by-step explanation:
Find a common denominator
2/5= 16/40
3/8= 15/40
16/40+15/40= 31/40
Answer:
(x,y)=(0,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify -5x+3y=2x
2y=2x
multiply both sides -7x+3y=0
-x+y=0

Answer:
y= -100 x= 100
Step-by-step explanation:The form y=mx+b means slope m and y-intercept b; similarly, the form y=mx+a means slope m and y-intercept a. The form y=m(x-a) is essentially different from the other two forms, and means slope m and x-intercept (instead of y-intercept) a.
So we have three numbers
x
x+12 (a number 12 more than our original one)
x-12 ( a number 12 less than our original one)
the sum of all these numbers was 15, thereful:
x+x+12+x-12=15
3x=15
x=5
mikes original number is 5
