Answer:

(x,y)=(4,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

y= -3x+5\\y=-8x+25

Since both expressions -3x+5 and -8x+25 are equal to y , set them equal to each other forming an equation in x.

-3x+5=-8x+25

Move <u>variable</u> to the left-hand side and change its sign

-3x+8x+5=25

Move <u>constant</u> to the right-hand side and change its sign

-3x+8x=25-5

Collect <u>like terms</u>

5x=25-5

Subtract the numbers

5x=20

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

x=4

Substitute the given value of x into the equation y=-3 x4+5

y=-3x4+5

Multiply the numbers

y=-12+5

Calculate the sum

y=-7

The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair (x,y)

(x,y) =(4,-7)

Check if the given <u>ordered pair</u> is the solution of the system of equations

-7=-3 x 4+5\\-7=-8 x4+25\\

Simplify the equalities

-7=-7\\-7=-8 x 4 +25

Simplify the equality

-7=-7\\-7=-7

Since all of the equalities are true, the <u>ordered pair</u> is the solution of the system

(x,y)=(4,-7)

Can you solve this problem plz?

Answer:

First, we are going to find the sum of their age. To do that we are going to add the age of Eli, the age Freda, and the age of Geoff:


The combined age of Eli, Freda, and Geoff is 40, so the denominator of each ratio will be 40.


Next, we are going to multiply the ratio between the age of the person and their combined age by £800:

For Eli: 

For Freda: 

For Geoff: 


We can conclude that Eli will get £180, Freda will get £260, and Geoff will get £360.
