Answer:

y=1 and x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are :

2x-2y = 2 ....(1)

5x+2y= 12 .....(2)

Adding equation (1) and (2),

2x+5x = 2+12

7x = 14

x = 2

Put the value of x in equation (!).

2(2)-2y = 2

4-2y=2

2=2y

y=1

So, the values of x and y are 2 and 1 respectively.

frez [133]
12% of 1200 is 144, so subtract that. you get 1056. 12% of that is 126.72, so you subtract that. you get 929.28. 12% of that is 111.5136 and you subtract that. and so on and so forth. the answer would be 557.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

a = 3, b = -1, c = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three numbers be a, b and c.

Equation 1: a + b + c = 12

Equation 2: a + 2b + 3c = 31

Equation 3: 9b + c = 1

Equation 2 - Equation 1:

Equation 4: b + 2c = 19

Equation 3 times by the number 2

Equation 5: 18b + 2c = 2

Equation 5 - Equation 4

17b = -17

b = -1

Substitute into Equation 4:

2c - 1 = 19

2c = 20

c = 10

Substitute into Equation 1:

a + b + c = 12

a - 1 + 10 = 12

a = 3
