<u>Answer:</u>

  • x = 5
  • y = 3

<u>Solution:</u>

  • => x + 4y = 17

            -x - 6y = -23

  • => -2y = -6
  • => y = 3

<u>Now, let's substitute the value of y into the first equation.</u>

  • x + 4y = 17
  • => x + 4(3) = 17
  • => x + 12 = 17
  • => x = 5

<u>Let's check our answer to make sure it is correct.</u>

<u>Check:</u>

  • -x - 6y = -23
  • => -(5) - 6(3) = -23
  • => -5 - 18 = -23
  • => -23 = -23

Hence, this is proven correct.

Hoped this helped.

João gosta muito de animais de estimação e de charadas. Certo dia um amigo perguntou-lhe quantos cachorros e quantos gatos ele t
anastassius [24]

Responda:

a) 3 e 4

Explicação passo a passo:

Deixei :

Número de cães = x

Número de gatos = y

2x + 3y = 17 - - - - (1)

x - y = 1 - - - - (2)

De (2)

x = 1 + y

Coloque em (1)

2 (1 + y) + 3y = 17

2 + 2y + 3y = 17

2 + 5y = 17

5y = 17 - 2

5y = 15

y = 15/5

y = 3

x = 1 + y

x = 1 + 3

x = 4

Número de cães = x = 4

Número de gatos = y = 3

If f:X is 3x + b and ff(2) = 12, find the value of b​
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

b =6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) =3x + b

f(2) = 12

Required

Find b

f(2) = 12 implies that:

12 = 3 * 2 + b

12 = 6 + b

Collect like terms

b = 12 - 6

b =6
