Let 2x – y = 3 ——— equation 1
Let x + 5y = 14 ——— equation 2
Making x the subject in eqn 1, = x = y + 3 / 2 ——— eqn 3
• Put eqn 3 in eqn 2
(y + 3 / 2) + 5y = 14
6y = 14 – 3/2
6y = 25/2
y = 25/12
• put y = 25/12 in eqn 3
x = (25/12 + 3/2)
x = 43/12
The Sum: 59
The Product: 408
Answer:
155
Step-by-step explanation:
calculate the areas of 2 rectangles
method A
one rectangle with lengths 8 and 10
the other 15 and 5
so 8x10 + 15x5 = 80 + 75 = 155
method B
one traingle with lenghts 5 and 7
the other 15 and 8
so 15x8 + 5x7 = 120 + 35 = 155
I believe it’s 8 because 24 divided 75% is 32.
