That is correct as 17 is a prime number and can only be divided by 1 and itself
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
x = -1 and y = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let u = 1/x, and v = 1/y
Then the pair of equations
-3/x + 4/y = 11
1/x - 2/y = -5
Can be written as
-3u + 4v = 11 .................................(1)
u - 2v = -5......................................(2)
From (2)
u = 2v - 5 .......................................(3)
Substituting (3) into (1)
-3(2v - 5) + 4v = 11
-6v + 15 + 4v = 11
-6v + 4v = 11 - 15
-2v = -4
v = 4/2 = 2
Substituting this value of v in (3)
u = 2v - 5
u = 2(2) - 5
= 4 - 5
= -1
That is
u = -1, v = 2
Since u = 1/x, and v = 1/y, we have
1/x = -1
=> x = -1
And
1/y = 2
=> y = 1/2
Therefore
x = -1 and y = 1/2
Combine like terms. So that means combine the X's and combine the regular numbers.
- add 2x to 8x
- combine +15 -5
- then add 11 to that
- once you're done, find X by dividing 10x by whatever you have after the = sign

Morgan is right because to find how much something is per minute you need to divide. In this case, you need to divide 68 and 8. The answer then is 8.5
