What is 7x30 = 7 x --- tens = --- tens = ---
4x - 5y = -12
-x + 5y = 18
Add the equations together:
4x + -x = 3x
-5y + 5y = 0
-12 + 18 = 6
So now you have:
3x = 6
Divide both sides by 3:
X = 2
Now you have the value of x, replace x with 2 in one of the equations and solve for y:
4(2) -5y = -12
8 -5y = -12
Subtract 8 from both sides:
-5y = -20
Divide both sides by -5:
Y = 4
The solution is x = 2 and y = 4 which is written as (2,4)
Answer:
Veronica's age now =8 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Veronica's age now = x years
Georgia's age now = 5x - 7
Veronica age after 6 year = 14
x + 6 = 14
x = 14 - 6
x = 8 years
You can divide 16 and 12, which will get you 1 and 1/4 a person left, but rounded will get 2
5 times (-17)= -85 so you should have said -85
