X-5y=21 and-6x=24 solve by substitution

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!

A rectangle with an area of 81 cm² has a length that is 3 times the width. How long is the width of the rectangle? Round to the
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

W ≈ 5.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the length and width by L and W respectively.

Then L * W = 81 cm^2, and L = 3W.

Substituting 3W for L in the first equation, we get:

3W * W - 81 = 0, or 3W^2 - 81 = 0.

To make it easier to find the final answer, rewrite 3W^2 - 81 = 0 as

            81

W^2 = ------- = 27

              3

Then W (the width) is the positive square root of 27, or W ≈ 5.2 cm

Burka [1]
Dear Pleaseanswerback, the value of 6 in 26.495 is greater than the 6 in 17.64 because the 6 in 26.495 is 6, and the 6 in 17.64 is 0.6. 6 is greater than 0.6 so the value of 6 in 26.495 is greater.
