9x - 2y = 11 ... (i)
5x - 2y = 15 ... (ii)
Subtracting equation (ii) from (i) we get;
4x + 0 = -4
4x=-4 , x = -1
Replacing x = -1 in equation (i) we get;
9(-1) - 2y = 11
-9 - 2y = 11
-2y = 20
y = 20 ÷ -2 = -10
The solution to the system of equations is (-1,-10).
Answer: 40
Step-by-step explanation:
138/x = 207/60
8280 = 207x
divide by 207
40 = x

Answer:
400 red boxes were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Our output value is 2000.
Step 2: We represent the unknown value with x.
Step 3: From step 1 above,2000=100%.
Step 4: Similarly, x=40%.
Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:
2000=100%
x=40%(2)
Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both
equations have the same unit (%); we have
2000/x = 100%/40%
Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives
x/2000 = 40%/100%
x=800
Therefore, 40% of 2000 is 800
and to find 50% just divide by 2
