Answer:

x= 3, y= 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 3x -5 -----(i)

y= -x +7 -----(ii)

Substitute (i) into (ii):

3x -5= -x +7

3x +x= 7 +5

4x= 12

x= 12 ÷4 (÷4 on both sides)

x= 3

Substitute x= 3 into (ii):

y= -3 +7

y= 4

-5(x - 1) greater than -40

sergey [27]

Answer:

x < 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Writing this entirely with symbols, we get:

-5(x - 1) > -40

We must solve for x.

Carrying out the multiplication, we get:

-5x + 5 > -40, or

-5x > -45

Dividing both sides by -5 isolates x:

x < 9

Note that when working with an inequality such as this one, dividing both sides by a negative number requires changing the direction of the inequality symbol.
