Answer:

x= -2, y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

these are two equations in two unknown variables .. when we find these equations, we do some operations like sum of two equations so here, we will sum the two equation

-5x-y=8

+

5x-3y=-16

__________

0x - 4y = -8

then we have an equation for one unknown variable and it is y, we will divide the equation over the factor of y which is -4

\frac{-4y}{-4}=\frac{-8}{-4}

and we find that y = 2

we will not stop and we will go find the value of x by put y = 2 in any of the two equations because both of them will give us the same solution of x

I chose to put y = 2 in the first equation to be like -5X - 2 = 8

-5X = 8+2

-5X = 10 ( we will divide the equation over the factor of x (-5) )

X = -2

What is 76 rounded to the nearest hundred
Citrus2011 [14]
100. When rounding to the hundreds place, you must consider the value of the digit in the tens place. If the digit in the tens place is 5 or greater, the digit in the hundreds place increases by 1. If the digit in the tens place is 4 or less the digit in the hundreds place remains the same. In this case, the number in the hundreds place was originally zero.
