Answer:
X= 15
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 5 on x/5 and 9
divide 3 and 45
x=15
1st number = x
2nd number = 3x
3rd number = 2x-10
x +3x + 2x-10 =92
6x - 10 = 92
6x =102
x = 102/6
x = 17
1st number = 17
2nd number = 17*3 = 51
3rd number = 17 *2 = 34-10 = 24
17 + 51 + 24 = 92
3 numbers are 17, 51 and 24
Let's solve this system of equations through substitution.
We have these two equations.
-7x-2y=14
6x+6y=18
Now let divide the second equation by 6.
6x+6y=18 ----> x+y=3
Next, let us move y to the right side of the equation.
x+y=3 -------> x=3-y (x equals 3-y)
Because we found out that what x is in terms of y, we can input that in for every instance of x in this equation below.
-7x-2y=14 becomes -7(3-y)-2y=14 (Why? Because x equals 3-y!)
We have a one variable equation now and can solve for y.
-7(3-y)-2y=14
-21+7y-2y=14
5y=35
y=7
Plug in 7 for y in any equation to find x.
x+y=3
x+7=3
x=-4
answer: x=-4, y=7
