X=numerator
y=denominator
the sum of numerator and denominator=x+y
we suggest this system of equations:
y=x-3
(x+5) / (y+5)=5/6
we solve this system of equation by substitution method.
(x+5) / (x-3+5)=5/6
(x+5) / (x+2)=5/6
6(x+5)=5(x+2)
6x+30=5x+10
6x-5x=10-30
x=-20
y=x-3=-20-3=-23
Teh sum of the numerator an denominator=-20+(-23)=-43
Answer: -43
The Answer to this problem is (the line y=x). I'm positive that this is the right answer!!!
Answer:
Then the solution is (4, 6).
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's use the substitution method:
First multiply the second equation by 4, obtaining 4y = -2x + 32.
Now substitute (-2x + 32) for 4y in the first equation:
3x + (-2x + 32) = 36, or
3x - 2x + 32 = 36. or
x = 4.
If x = 4, then the second equation yields y = (-1/2)(4) + 8, or
y = -2 + 8, or y = 6
Then the solution is (4, 6).
Check, using the first equation:
Does 3(4) + 4(6) = 36? Does 12 + 24 = 36? YES
To find the answer,we need to first find out their hours spent individually.
Rishi spent:
=2×3/4
=6/4hours
Kyle spent
=6×1/4
=6/4hours
As they both spent 6/4 hours,they spent equal time.
Hope it helps!
