Answer:
The value of x = -0.44
The value of y = 20.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be 10x and y
then,
10x + y = 12 ... equation 1
and,
10y + x = 12 + 8
10y + x = 20 ... equation 2
multiplying ( equation 1 ) by 1 and ( equation 2 ) by 10 we get,
10x + y = 12 ... equation 3
10x + 10y = 200 ... equation 4
Now, Subtracting ( equation 3 ) from ( equation 4 )
10x + 10y = 200
10x + y = 12
- - -
____________
0 + 9y = 188
9y = 188
y = 188/9
y = 20.8
Putting the value in equation 1.
10x + 20.8 = 12
10x + 20.8 = 12
10x = 12 - 20.8
10x = -8.8
x = -8.8/10
x = -0.44
Hence, x = -0.44 and y = 20.8
I hope it helped you !
Thank You.
