There are an infinite number of answers to this question. The smallest answer where both numbers are positive integers is x=9, y=1.

x can be equal to any number greater than 9 which leaves a difference between itself and 15 equal to a multiple of 3, while in this case, y would be equal to anything by which 3 multiplies to make up the difference between the two numbers, and subtracts to equal 15.

Other positive integer values that x and y can equal are: x=12 y=3, x=15, y=5, x=18, y=7.

Therefore, as the inequality x is increased by 3 for any number greater than 12, the inequality y can be increased by 2.

What is the slope of line with the equation 2x 3y plus 6 equals 0?

Put the equation in this form: y=mx+b. Then m will be the slope. 2x3y+6=0 2x3y=-6 3y=-6/2x y=-2/2x y=-1/x This equation does not describe a straight line, but rather, it describes a curve.


How do you factor this. x2y2 plus 2x3y?

x^(2)y^(2) + 2x^(3) y To factor 'x^(2) is common to both terms. Hence x^(2) [ y^(2) + 2xy] 'y' is common to both terms Hence x^(2)y[ y + 2x ] Fully factored.

What is this factor completely 2x3y 18xy - 10x2y - 90y?

2x^(3)y + 18xy - 10x^(2)y -90y Rearrange in ascending powers of 'x' . Hence 2x^(3)y - 10x^(2)y + 18xy -90y '2' & 'y' are common factor to all four terms. Hence 2y[ x^(3) - 5x^(2) + 9x - 45] Inside the 'square' brackets we factor the first two terms and the last two terms. Hence 2y[(x^(2){x - 5} + 9{x - 5}] To the two internal terms 'x - 5' is common. Hence 2y[x^(2) + 9)(x - 5)] Fully factored. NB 'x^(2) + 9 ' = x^(2) + 3^(2) does NOT factor . Remember two squared terms with a positive(+) between them does NOT factor. However, two squared terms with a negative(-) between them does factor.
