Answer:

x = 2 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations are :

12x+8y = 40 ...(1)

4x+5y = 18  ....(2)

Multiply equation (2) by 3.

12x+15y = 54 ...(3)

Subtract equation (1) by (3).

12x+15y-(12x+8y) = 54-40

12x+15y-12x-8y = 14

7y = 14

y = 2

Put the value of y in equation (2).

4x+5(2) = 18

4x+10 = 18

4x = 8

x = 2

The solutions of the given equations are x = 2 and y = 2

Evaluate 5x^2-3x+2 for x=-3
zhuklara [117]
Alright, so in PEMDAS, we first do exponents. 3^2=9, and we then have 5(9)-3(3)+2. After that, we have multiplication, where we have 5*9 =45 and 3*3=9, resulting in 45-9+2 and eventually 38
