Answer:
Multiply x + y = 3 by 3 and add it to -3x - 2y = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
When using elimination to solve a system of equations, you multiply one equation by some number. The reason for doing this is that when you add it to the second equation, you want one variable to cancel out. When one variable cancels out (in this case x), you can solve for the other variable (in this case y). I will show this:
3(x + y = 3) = 3x + 3y = 9
3x + 3y = 9
+ -3x + -2y = -7
---------------------------
y = 2
Now, knowing that y = 2, you can substitute y=2 into either equation to solve for x.
-3x - 2(2) = -7
-3x -4 = -7
-3x = -3
x = 1 | to double check (1, 2) as your answer plug these values into both equations
Finding this solution would not have been possible if not for cancelling out the x's above. The other three are wrong because none of the other options cancels out one of the variables.
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Both angles can be 90 degrees
Answer:
15/30:2/30
15/30=2/30x
divide by 15/30
7.5 is x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
sin⁴x - sin²x
sin²x(sin²x - 1)
(1 - cos²x)(1 - cos²x - 1)
(1 - cos²x)(-cos²x)
-cos²x + cos⁴x
cos⁴x - cos²x
The answer is 20 since 1/5 of 20 is 4, and 20 + 4 = 24.
