An integer x is divided by an integer y, and the quotient is 24. the sum of these two integers is 75.
which is the value of x?

x=72

Step-by-step explanation:

"An integer x is divided by an integer y, and the quotient is 24" mathematically sounds as

"The sum of these two integers is 75" has the equation

From the second equation

Substitute it into the first:

Now

x =72

Step-by-step explanation:

  equation 1

x+y=75   equation 2

using equation 2 we have:

x=75-y  equation 3

using equation 3 in equation 1 we have:

y=3

so we have:

x=75-y

x=75-3

x=72
