The known facts
- the sum of Natalie's age and Fred's age is 36
- the sum of Fred's age times four and Natalie's age is 72
Now, let's set up the equations where N is Natalie's age and F is Fred's age.
N + F = 36 ---- equation 1
N + 4F = 72 ---- equation 2
equation 2 minus equation 1 ---> 3F = 36 ---> F = 12, thus N = 24
Thus Fred is 12 years old, and Natalie is 24 years old.
Answer:
x=0.y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
5x-y=-3
y=5x+3
sub y=5x+3 into 6x+y=3,
6x+5x+3=3
11x=0
x=0
6(0)+y=3
y=3
