If 3x + 7y = 12 and x-y= 1, then what is the value of 5x + 5y?

Mathematics

lilavasa [31]3 years ago

Answer:

14.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 7y = 12

x - y = 1           Multiply this by -3:

-3x + 3y = -3     Add this to equation 1:

0 + 10y = 9

so y = 9/10 = 0.9.

x - 0.9 = 1

x = 1.9.

So 5x + 5y = 5*1.9 + 5*0.9

= 14.

Given that the prime factorisation of 198 is 2x(3×3)x11. State the minimum integer value of
mylen [45]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

198 = 2×3²×11

For 198n to be a perfect square, each prime factor must have an even exponent.  So the smallest 198n would be:

198n = 2²×3²×11²

198n = 4356

n = 22

The Nuthouse offers a mixture of soy nuts and almonds, Almonds
elena55 [62]

Answer:

  14 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations can be solved for y by substituting for x. The first equation is convenient for writing x in terms of y.

<h3>Solution</h3>

  x = 20 -y . . . . . . . subtract y from the first equation

  7(20 -y) +5.5y = 119 . . . . . substitute for x in the second equation

  140 -1.5y = 119 . . . . . . . . simplify

  21 = 1.5y . . . . . . . . . . . add 1.5y -119 to both sides

  14 = y . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 1.5

14 pounds of soy nuts should be used in the mixture.

<em>Additional comment</em>

There are many ways to solve a system of two linear equations. The attachments shows a matrix solution using a suitable calculator. It tells us that x=6 and y=14, as we found above.

5b - 5 - 126 - 7<br> I need steps please and thank you
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

5b - 138

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright let's break it down.

First, you can see that each constant (5,126,7) have negatives in front of them. SO you are going to subtract each one of them.

When subtracting negatives it's basically just adding them together. How to do it is simply adding:

5 + 126 + 7

Then you get 138.

BUT, it was negative numbers. So it's actually -138.

Then bring back the 5b and your answer is:

5b - 138

Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 20 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours. Together the
klasskru [66]

The rate charged per hour by each mechanic was:  x = 75 $ / hr and y = 115 $ / hr.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

Given;

The first mechanic worked for 20 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 15 hours.

Together they charged a total of $3225.

For this case we have the following variables:

x be the amount of $ / hr that the mechanic obtains 1.

y be the amount of $ / hr obtained by mechanic 2.

An equation to express this would be:

x + y = 190

20x + 15y = 3225

Solving the system of equations we have:

20x + 15(190 -x) = 3225

20x + 2850 - 15x = 3225

5x = 375

x = 75

simililary

y = 190 - x

y = 115

Hence, the rate charged per hour by each mechanic was:

x = 75 $ / hr

y = 115 $ / hr
