Answer:

x = 8 , y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = 30

3x - y = 21 -> y = 3x - 21

3x + 2 (3x - 21) = 30

3x + 6x - 42 = 30

3x + 6x = 30 + 42

9x = 72

x = 72/9 = 8

y = 3*8 - 21 = 24 - 21 = 3

∴ x = 8 & y = 3

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

length = 20cm

breadth = 8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

solution;

length(l) = x + 12

breadth(b) = x

perimeter (p) = 56 cm

we know that,

perimeter(p) = 2(l + b)

or, 56 = 2(x + 12 + x)

or, 56 = 2(2x + 12)

or, 56 = 4x +24

or, 56 - 24 = 4x

or, 32 = 4x

or, 32 / 4 = x

x = 8

now

putting the value of x in length and breadth

length = x+ 12

=8 + 12

=20cm

breadth = 8cm

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

$\dfrac{38}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$12\dfrac{2}{3} =$

$= 12 + \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{12}{1} + \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{12}{1} \times \dfrac{3}{3} + \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{36}{3} + \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{38}{3}$
