Answer:

x = -1, and y = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

This is done by solving one of the two equations for x or y, then substituting it in place of that variable in the other equation.

Since y is already clearly defined in the second equation let's go with that:

Given\ 7x - 3y = 20,\ and\ y = 5x - 4

7x - 3(5x - 4) = 20

7x - 15x + 12 = 20

7x - 15x = 20 - 12

-8x = 8

x = -1

Now we can replace x in the equation for y with -1:

y = 5(-1) - 4

y = -5 - 4

y = -9

To make sure our answers are correct, let's substitute them into the original equations:

(-9) = 5(-1) - 4\\-9 = -5 - 4\\-9 = -9

Good, let's test the other equation

7(-1) - 3(-9) = 20\\-7 - (-27) = 20\\-7 + 27 = 20\\20 = 20

So we know that our answer is correct.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute the value of y in the first equation.

7x-3(5x-4)=20

7x-15x+12=20

-8x=20-12

x=8/-8

x= -1

then you substitute the value of x on the y equation to find y

y=5×-1 -4

y= -5-4

y= -9

exis [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A∩B = {2, 23}

Step-by-step explanation:

The intersection of two sets is the list of elements common to both.

  2 is found in both

  12, 19 are only in set A

  23 is found in both

  29 is only in set A

  34, 40, 45 are only in set B

The intersection of the two sets is {2, 23}.

Anyone i need help with this
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a1=90-a2

a1=90-30=60

a2 is opposite 30 and opposite angles are equal so

a2=30

The sum of the angles of a triangle are equal to 180 degrees.

a2+a3+70=180

a3+30+70=180

a3=100=180

a3=80
