So the final answer is 2/3
Answer:
(- 2, - 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x - 3y = - 1 → (1)
x + 4y = - 6 → (2)
Rearrange (2) expressing x in terms of y by subtracting 4y from both sides
x = - 6 - 4y → (3)
Substitute x = - 6 - 4y into (1)
2(- 6 - 4y) - 3y = - 1 ← distribute and simplify left side
- 12 - 8y - 3y = - 1
- 12 - 11y = - 1 ( add 12 to both sides )
- 11y = 11 ( divide both sides by - 11 )
y = - 1
Substitute y = - 1 into (3) for corresponding value of x
x = - 6 - 4(- 1) = - 6 + 4 = - 2
Solution is (- 2, - 1 )
Answer:
23, 24 and 25
Step-by-step explanation:
These are consecutive numbers that add up to 72.
we know that the multiplication comes first in the family then we start from left to right
4 x 5= 20
9-20 = -11
-11 + 6 = -5
there you go!
