x+y=10
x-y=8, x=y+8
y+8+y=10
2y=2
y=1
So, x=10-y=10-1=9.
Numbers Would be 9 and 1.
Answer:
Jim's current weight = 119 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
1 Stone = 14 pounds
stone = 1.5 stone
1.5 stone = 1.5 (14 pounds) = 21 pounds
Jim lost 21 pounds
Let X be Jim's Original Weight
Y be his present weight
As per given statement in the Question:
After losing 1.5 stones (21 pounds of weight) Jim now weighs Y
Present weight = original weight - 21
Y = X -21 <u> Equation 1</u>
Also Current Weight = 85 % (Original weight)
Y = 85 % (X) =
Y=
put in Equation 1
= X-21
85X = (X-21) 100
85 X = 100 X -2100
or
2100 = 100 X - 85X
2100 = 15X
or
15 X = 2100

X= 140 pounds ( Original Weight)
Current Weight = Y = Original weight - 21 <u><em>(From Equation 1)</em></u>
Y = X -21
Y = 140 -21
Y = 119 pounds (Current Weight)
Y=Mx+B -> slope intercept form
The answer would be -3y=-5x-9
Divide the -3 on both sides and you get
y=5/3x+3
