How to solve a equation using elemination method

Mathematics
1 answer:
lilavasa [31]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you are referring to a system of equations.

Example:

2x - y =  4

x + y =  5

If we add these 2 equations then the y is eliminated because -y + y = 0:-

3x + 0 = 9

x = 3

Now we plug x = 3 into the first equation to find y:

2(3) - y = 4

-y = 4 - 6 = -2

y = 2.

If we cannot eliminate one of the variables we multiply one of the equations so that one of the variables so that it can be eliminated.

For example:

2x - 3y = 5       A

x  + y  =  6        B

We multiply the second equation B by 3 so that when we add -3y + 3y gets eliminated:

3x + 3y = 18

- so adding this to equation A

5x + 0 = 23.

In some cases we may have to multiply both equations by different values to get terms that can be eliminated.

Answer:

(x-1)^2 + y^2 = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

center C ( ( xA + xB)/2 , (yA+yB)/2 ) = ( 1 , 0)

AB = 10

radius = AB / 2 = 5

equation formula: (x - xC)^2 + (y-yC)^2 = radius^2

Hence:

(x-1)^2 + y^2 = 25

Determine which equation is belongs to the graph of the limacon curve below.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have functions of r(θ)

In our graph, we can see that the minimum value of r is when θ = 0°, and the maximum value is when θ = 180°.

We also know that the graph is in the square (-5, 5)x(-5, 5) and you can see that the maximum radius is almost less than 5.

Then let's analyze the options:

A) r = 3 - 2*cos(θ)

the maximum is at the right angle, but the maximum is:

r = 3 -2*(-1) = 5, so this maximum value is bigger than the one in the graph.

B) r = 3 - sin(θ)

For the sin functions, the maximum and minimum do not correspond with the values i write earlier, so we can discard this option.

C) r = 3 - cos(θ)

The maximum is: r = 3 - (-1) = 4, so this may be the correct answer.

the minimum is r = 3 - 1 = 2,

this is a possible equation for our circle.

D) r = 2 - 2*cos(θ)

Here, when θ = 0, we have: r = 2 - 2*1 = 0, but in the graph we can see that the radius is not 0 when θ = 0, so we can discard this option.

So the only option that makes sense is option C.

Help quickly please!!!
sineoko [7]

Answer:

M= -2

B=1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Y-intercept</em></u><em> is the point where the line crosses through the y line, so you can clearly see that that point is (0,1) we only write the y value because for a y intercept the x value will always be zero</em>

<em><u>Slope</u></em> <em>is the rise over run, meaning how much the y value changes over how much the x value changes, so for the two points we use our formula:</em>

\frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2}

<em>So now input how much it changes by adding the numbers from each coordinate:</em>

\frac{(-3)-(1)}{(2)-(0)}

<u>Simplify:</u>

<u />\frac{-4}{2}<u />

<em>But we write it as:</em>

-4/2

<em>This is because this looks more like division</em>

<u>Divide:</u>

-4/2=-2

So, your slope is <em><u>-2</u></em> and the y- intercept is <em><u>1</u></em>

I hope this helps u pls give a brainliest and a thx ;)
