Hey there :)
Before translating the sentence into mathematics, let r represent 'a number'
5 times a number = 5r
2 times that number = 2r
The difference between them = 5r - 2r
* Your equation
5r - 2r
* Solving the equation
= 5r - 2r
= 3r
Answer:
30.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 1, y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
15x + 3y = 9 (1)
10x + 7y = -4 (2)
3 × (2) - 2 × (1)
3 × (2)
30x + 21y = -12 (3)
2 × (1)
30x + 6y = 18 (4)
(3) - (4)
15y = -30
y = -30 / 15
y = -2
sub y = -2 into (1)
15x + 3y = 9
15x + (3 × -2) = 9
15x - 6 = 9
15x = 9 + 6
15x = 15
x = 15 / 15
x = 1
