Answer:
x=18, y= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
if x+y=24
x= 24- y
in second case
x= 3y
24_ y = 3y
24=4y
y= 6
hence x = 24 _6 = 18
Answer:0
Step-by-step explanation:2≠8,10 so we use the bottom formula. We get 4 - 6 + 2=0
Parallel lines have the same slope. So the slope of the other line =2/7
[ ( x + 4 )( x + 5 ) + 4( x + 1 )( x + 5) - 5( x + 1 )( x + 4 ) ] / [( x + 1 )( x + 4)( x + 5 )] = ( x^2 + 9x + 20 + 4x^2 + 24x +20 - 5x^2 - 25x - 20) / [( x + 1 )( x + 4)( x + 5 )] =
( - 2x + 20 ) / [( x + 1 )( x + 4)( x + 5 )] = ( - 2)( x - 10) / [( x + 1 )( x + 4)( x + 5 )]
