A) x and y are two numbers taken from the list below. 5
6
7
8
9
10

(i) What values of x and y will make 3x - 2y equal zero?

(ii) Work out the greatest possible value of 3x - 2y.

(iii) Work out the least possible value of 3x – 2y.

b) Find the value of 5(a – 4b) when a = -7 and b = 1

a) i) The equation is satisfies of the values x = 6 and y=9

ii) The greatest possible value of 3x-2y is  20

iii) The least possible value of 3x – 2y is 2 and '0'

b)

The value of 5(a – 4b)  =  -55

Step-by-step explanation:

Given x and y are two numbers taken from the list below

5  6   7   8   9  10

i)

I will choose  x = 6 and y = 9

3x - 2y = 3 (6) - 2(9) = 18 - 18 = 0

The equation is satisfies of the values x = 6 and y=9

ii)  

we will choose x =10 and y = 5

3x - 2y = 3(10) - 2(5) = 30 -10 =20

The greatest possible value = 20

iii)

we will choose x =6 and y =8

3x - 2y = 3(6) -2(8) = 18-16 =2

we will choose x =6 and y =9

3x - 2y = 3 (6) - 2(9) = 18 - 18 = 0

b)

Given value of 5(a – 4b)

substitute  a = -7 and b = 1

5(a – 4b) = 5(-7-4(1)) = 5 (-11) = -55

on monday rodney ate 1/4th of the sandwich = 3/12

on tuesday he ate 1/3rd of the sandwich = 4/12

therefore in total he has eaten = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

thus we can say that he has eaten 7/12 of the sandwich on monday and tuesday alltogether.

happy to

pls mark as brainliest.
