So
Jon's age=j
mary age=m
m+j=27
m+2 times j=40
m+2j=40
M+j=27
ssubtract j from both sides
m=27-j
subsitute 27-j for m
27-j+2j=40
27+j=40
subtract 27 fromboth sdies
j=13
subsitue
13+m=27
subtract 13
m=14
mary=14
john=13
Answer:
The two in the middle are the negatives and the two that are on the sides are positive.
<u>Given</u><u> </u><u>:</u>
<u>To</u><u> </u><u>Find</u><u> </u><u>:</u>
<u>Answer</u><u> </u><u>:</u>
- x + y = 4 ....[Equation (i)]
- x + y = 1......[Equation (ii)]
<u>Adding</u><u> </u><u>eqⁿ (ii) </u><u>and</u><u> eqⁿ (i) we get :</u>
→ x + y + x - y = 4 + 1
→ 2x = 5
→ x = 5/2
→ x = 2.5
<u>Now</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>put</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>value </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>5</u><u>/</u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>eqⁿ</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>i</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>we</u><u> </u><u>get</u><u> </u><u>:</u>
→ x + y = 4
→ 5/2 + y = 4
→ y = 4 - 5/2
→ y = 1.5
2) (-1,1), (2,-2), (4,-3)
