Answer:x=2, y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
solving this equation simultaneously
-9x - 2y=-12.............(1)
2x + 5y=-11.. ...........(2)
Using elimination method
Multiply equation 2 by 2 and equation 1 by 5
-45x -10y= -60...........(3)
4x + 10y=-22...............(4)
Subtracting equation 2 from 1
-41x + 0=-82
41x=82
x=82/41
X=2
To find y put x in equation 1
-9x - 2y= -12
-9(2)-2y=-12
-18-2y=-12
-2y=-12+18
-2y=6
Y= 6/2
Y=3
X=2, Y=3
The same as last time
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The number of robberies in 2014 is 108
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to calculate the number of robberies in 2014
from the question, the robberies went down by 40%
Let the number of robberies in 2014 be x
Thus;
40/100 * 180
= 72
This means that the value it went down was by 72
Thus;
x = 180-72
x = 108
Its simple take out the y and take out the x, you get 25=6!!!!!!!
