Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Eq. 1 ) −5x−3y−9=0
Eq. 2) 4x−18y−54=0
there are two routes to solve this, Substitution or elimination, I'll go for the 2nd one because I can see that the y values are a multiple of each other :)
6 *( −5x−3y−9=0 )
Eq. 3) -30x -18y =54
subtract Eq. 2 from Eq. 3 :)
-30x -18y =54
<u>-( 4x−18y=54)</u>
-34x = 0
so according to the equations then x =0 but, that's not really a full answer, so now we should go back and try the other method, substitution,
then:
-5x = 9 +3y
x = - 9/5 + (-3/5)y
now plug that into Eq. 2
4( - 9/5 + (-3/5)y ) - 18y = 54
-36/5 + (-12/5)y -18y = 54
(-12/5)y - (90/5)y = 54+36/5
-(102/5)*y =270/5+36/5
-(102/5)y = 306/5
y = (-5/102)*(306/5)
y = -306/102
y = -3
then plug in for either equation
-5x-3( -3) = 9
-5x + 9 = 9
-5x = 0
x = 0
now we have the full answer
check it by plugging in both x and y into the 2nd equation
4(0) - 18(-3) = 54
54= 54
this seems good
There would be enough room because if you do 60 times .375 (3 over 8) it would equal out to 22.5
The sum is 829.77, and the difference is 205.44
X=- 115/24
hope this helps :)
