Answer:

Answer: Janet is 16, and David is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ages be j and d.

j = d + 5

j + d = 27

Substitute d + 5 for j in the second equation.

d + 5 + d = 27

2d + 5 = 27

2d = 22

d = 11

Substitute 11 for d in the first equation.

j = d + 5

j = 11 + 5

j = 16

Answer: Janet is 16, and David is 11.

Please Help Fast!!! 20 points <br> Solve the system of equations: <br> 25−x=−4y<br> 3x−2y=30
gogolik [260]

Answer:

(7, -4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

25−x=−4y  ---> x=25+4y

3x−2y=30

use x to substitute into the second equation

3 (25+4y)-2y = 30

75+12y-2y=30

75+10y=30

10y=-45

y=-4.5

3x-2(-4.5)=30

3x+9=30

3x=21

x=7

check:

25-7=-4*-4.5

18=18 (yes)

3*7-2*-4.5=30

21+9=30

30=30 (yes)
