If you simply it down you get
so X can technically be any number
Answer:
x = -2 and y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
4x + 5y = 7 -----(1)
3x – 2y = –12 ----(2)
<u>To find the value of x and y</u>
eq(1) * 3 ⇒
12x + 15y = 21 ----(3)
eq(2) * 4 ⇒
12x - 8y = -48 ---(4)
eq(3) - eq(4) ⇒
12x + 15y = 21 ----(3)
<u>12x - 8y = -48 </u> ---(4)
0 + 23y = 69
y = 69/23 = 3
Substitute the value of y in eq(1)
4x + 5y = 7 ----(1)
4x + 5*3 = 7
4x = 7 - 15 = -8
x = -8/4 = -2
Therefore x = -2 and y = 3
Hi there!
The Eqn. is :-
1.5 (x + 4) - 3 = 4.5 (x - 2)
1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9
Combining the like terms :-
1.5x - 4.5x = - 9 - 6 + 3
- 3x = - 15 + 3
- 3x = - 12
x =
x = 4
Hence, the required answer is → x = 4
~ Hope it helps!
Answer:
the answer is equal because 8/12=2/3 so 2/3=8/12 (2/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
8g = 12 + 28
g = 5 packs
Step-by-step explanation:
Share of the sticks of gum
Manuela = 12 sticks
Sinah = 28 sticks
There are 8 sticks in each pack
g = number of packs of gum that sinah bought?
g × 8 sticks = 12 sticks + 28 sticks
8g = 40
Divide both sides by 8
g = 40 / 8
g = 5 packs
