Answer:

  (x, y) = (4, 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can multiply the first equation by -8 and the second by +9, then add the result.

  -8(9x -6y) +9(8x -5y) = -8(-12) +9(-8)

  -72x +48y +72x -45y = 96 -72

  3y = 24

  y = 8

Substituting for y in the first equation, we have ...

  9x -6(8) = -12

  9x = 36 . . . . . . add 48

  x = 4

The solution is (x, y) = (4, 8).

Ava said "There are only three hundred 3- diget numbers" is her statement true or faulse
Eduardwww [97]

Answer: False, there are actually 900 different three-digit numbers

========================================================

Explanation:

The three digit numbers span from 100 to 999, including both endpoints.

This means we have 999-100+1 = 900 different three-digit numbers.

You subtract the endpoints (large-small) and add 1 to include the lower endpoint.

Here's a smaller example of why this works: say you had the set {1,2,3,4} and we wanted to count the number of items in this set. Clearly there are 4 items. Note how subtracting the endpoints 4-1 gets us 3 instead, so we add on 1 to include that left endpoint.
