Solve the simultaneous equations

Mathematics
1 answer:
riadik2000 [5.3K]2 years ago

Answer:

x = -2, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 5

5x - 2y = -16

In order to find the value of a variable, we must eliminate the other variable by multiplying the equations to get the same coefficient.

We can multiply the first equation by 5 and the second one by 2 to get the same coefficient for x, the equations then become:

10x + 15y = 25

10x - 4y = -32

Now we can subtract:

19y = 57

y = 3

Since we know the value of y, we can substitute it into one of the original equations:

2x + 3(3) = 5

2x + 9 = 5

2x = -4

x = -2

1, a.) The two specific conjectures are in the first image.

1, b.) The two general conjectures are in the second image.

2, a.) Two specific conjectures for this pattern are:

  • The common difference between two consecutive terms is 3.
  • And the given difference is A.P.

2, b.) From our observation two general conjecture is that the given sequence is an arithmetic sequence and the common difference is 3.

For finding its nth term we can use the formula: a(n) = a + (n-1) x d.

2, c.) A formula for the given pattern is 5 + (n-1)3, where n is the number of the term.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Answer:6018

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Sequence

-282-266-250-234.....

It represent an A.P. with

first term a=-282

common difference d=16

So sum of 51 term

S_n=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]

S_{51}=\frac{51}{2}\times [2\times (-282)+(51-1)16]

S_{51}=\frac{51}{2}\times [-564+800]

S_{51}=\frac{51}{2}\times [236]

S_{51}=51\times 118

S_{51}=6018
