The last question I asked didn't come out right, it didn't show the x's and y's, hopefully this one is better. Thx

  31. (x, y) = (-4, 4)

  32. (x, y) = (1/6, 1/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

My preferred method is using a graphing calculator. The results are attached.

32.

For systems without integer solutions, it can work well to use the "cross multiplication method." For that we write the equations in general form. I prefer integer coefficients, so we need to multiply the equations in problem 32 by 5 and 10, respectively.

  30x -40y +3 = 0

  30x +20y -9 = 0

Then the solutions are ...

  x = ((-40)(-9) -(20)(3))/(30(20) -30(-40)) = 300/1800 = 1/6

  y = ((3(30) -(-9)(30))/1800 = 360/1800 = 1/5

The solution is (x, y) = (1/6, 1/5).

Please note that this method is substantially identical to the use of Cramer's Rule. The denominators in the expressions for x and y are identical. They are the determinant of the coefficient matrix.

Step-by-step explanation:

2^y = ln 5, or   y(ln 2) = ln 5.   solving for y,   y = (ln 5) / (ln 2).   y=5
