The ordered pair (x,y)=(8, 6) is the solution of the following system of linear equations
x = 1/10y + a
y = 1/10x + b
whats a +b?


Sagot :

Answer:

63/5

Step-by-step explanation:

when x = 8 and y = 6

the two equations become

8 = 1/10 * 6 + a  &  6 = 1/10 * 8 + b

which simplify to

8 = 3/5 + a  &  6 = 4/5 + b

so a = 8 - 3/5 = 37/5 & b = 6 - 4/5 = 26/5

a + b = 37/5 + 26/5 = 63/5
