Question

If m = 5x – 8, m = 3y, and m = 132, find the values of x and y.

Answer 1

well you have the equation

132 = 5x - 8

solve for x

then you also have

132 = 3y

solve for y.

hope it helps

Answer 2

Thanks!

Answer 3

y = 48

Answer 4

well I think y = 44

Answer 5

ya that's right y=44 and x=28

Answer 6

x = 132, y = 48
x = 16, y = 28
x = 48, y = 132
x = 28, y = 16

this is my awnsers so you said that x was 132 the y has to be 48 to match

Answer 7

lol.... well it looks like a typo of some kind to me...

what did you get for x..?

Answer 8

dude I dont know thats why I am asking other people. I suck at math

Answer 9

well based on the equation, x = 28

or

140 = 5x

so x = 28

then the same for y

132 = 3y

132/3 = y
