Mathematics
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The value of x is (-4) and y is (-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Given</u>;</h3>
  • x – 5y = 21
  • -6x = 24
<h3><u>To Find</u>;</h3>
  • Value of x
  • Value of y

Now,

-6x = 24

-6x/(-6) = 24/(-6)

x = -4

So, Substitute the value of x in x – 5y = 21

x – 5y = 21

-4 – 5y = 21

-4 + 4 – 5y = 21 + 4

-5y = 25/

-5y/(-5) = 25/(-5)

y = -5

Thus, The value of x is (-4) and y is (-5)

<h3><u>For </u><u>Verification</u>;</h3>

x – 5y = 21

-4 – 5(-5) = 21

-4 + 25 = 21

21 = 21

-6x = 24

-6(-4) = 24

24 = 24

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence Verified!

Explain hovevou could estimate 22% of 78 to check if your answer is reasonable.
fomenos

Answer:

78 rounds to 80, so find 10% of 80 and double it. 10% of 80 is 8. So, 20% of 80 is 16. Then, 22% of 78 is a little more than 16.

78 rounds to 80, and 22% is a little less than 25%. 25% (or one-fourth) of 80 is 20. So, 22% of 78 is a little less than 20.
