3x -1/2y = -7/2
x = -2y + 1
3 (-2y + 1) -1/2y = -7/2
-6y +3 -1/2y = -7/2
-13/2y = -13/2
y = 1
x = -2(1) + 1
x = -1
Answer = (-1, 1)
as we move down the list as we push the *digits* to the *left*through the decimal *point* *each* *number has been 10*. and so we can easily *multiply* or divide by *a* power of *10* because of our system of positional numeration. Each Place belongs to the next power of *10*.
Hi there!

13y² + 10y - 3 = 5y²
Begin by moving all terms to one side:
13y² + 10y - 3 - 5y² = 0
Combine like terms:
8y² + 10y - 3 = 0
Factor using the guess-and-check method.
(4y - 1)(2y + 3) = 0
Set each factor equal to 0 to find the solutions:
4y - 1 = 0
4y = 1
y = 1/4
2y + 3 = 0
2y = -3
y = -3/2
1:5 or 2:10 because if you divide 10 by 2 you get 5 and 2 divided by 2 it is 1
