X is 7 more than y
x>y then
difference betwen squares is 161 so
x=7+y
and
x²-y²=161
so
x=7+y
sub that for x in other equation
(7+y)²-y²=161
y²+14y+49-y²=161
14y+49=161
minus 49 both sides
14y=112
divide both sides by 14
y=8
sub back
x=7+y
x=7+8
x=15
the numbers are 15 and 8
Answer:
(1,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 6y = 3
7x + 3y = 7
Multiply the second equation by -2
-2( 7x + 3y = 7)
-14x -6y = -14
Add this to the first equation to eliminate y
3x + 6y = 3
-14x -6y = -14
--------------------
-11 x = -11
Divide by -11
x = 1
Now find y
3x + 6y = 3
3 +6y = 3
Subtract 3 from each side
6y = 0
y =0
Answer: 20 oranges and 5 mangoes
Step-by-step explanation:
Define the following:
x = number of oranges
y = number of mangoes
Make the following system of equations:
x + y = 25
0.35x + 1.00y = 12.00
Solve for x:
y = 25 - x
⇒ 0.35x + 1.00(25 - x) = 12.00
⇒ 0.35x + 25 - x = 12.00
⇒ -0.65x = -13.00
⇒ x = 20
Solve for y:
20 + y = 25
y = 5
∴ 20 oranges and 5 mangoes were purchased.
The answer is 20

Answer:
The cost of 1 doll = $ 7.5
and The Cost of 1 toy train = $ 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of 1 doll = $ x
The price of 1 toy train = $ y
Now, according to the question:
6 x + 2 y = $ 55
and 4 x + 7 y = $ 65
Solving the given system of equation,
From (1), we get


or, solving for y , we get
110y - 4y + 21 y = 195
or, 17 y = 85
⇒ y= 85/17 = 5
This implies : 6 x + 2 (5) =55
or, 6x = 55 - 10 = 45
or, x = 45/ 6 = 15/2
Hence, the cost of 1 doll = x = $ 7.5
and the Cost of 1 toy train = y = $ 5
