Answer:

x = 5, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Elimination method: (I will be eliminating 4y)

3x + 4y = 27 --- Equation 1

x + 4y = 17 --- Equation 2

Equation 1-2: 3x + 4y - x - 4y = 27 - 17

2x = 10

x = 10 ÷ 2

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into Equation 2:

x + 4y = 17

4y + 5 = 17

4y = 17 - 5

= 12

y = 12 ÷ 4

y = 3

Factor each expression 36abc +54ad

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

18a(2bc + 3d)

Step-by-step explanation:

36abc + 54ad

Step 1: Find the Highest Common Factor of each

36abc = 2×2×3×3×a×b×c = 18a × 2bc

54ad = 2×3×3×3×a×d = 18a × 3d

HCF = 2×3×3×a = 18a

Step 2: Factor out with HCF

18a(2bc + 3d)
