x+y=80
5x+8y=535

what is x and what is y


Sagot :

Answer:

x+y=80 i.e. 5x+5y=400 multiplying both sides by 5

now 5x+8y=535

therefore 3y=535-400=135

therefore y=135/3=45

now x=80-y=80-45=35

therefore final answer x is 35 y is 45

Answer:

x=35, y=45

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=80=>5x+5y=400 so (5x+8y)-(5x+5y)=535-400

<=>3y=135<=>y=45=>x=80-y=80-45=35
