X+y=5 x×y=6 Solve simultaneously with steps

Mathematics
1 answer:
igor_vitrenko [27]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

(3, 2), (2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 5

xy = 6

Solve the first equation for x.

x = 5 - y

Substitute 5 - y for x in the second equation.

xy = 6

(5 - y)y = 6

5y - y² = 6

y² - 5y + 6 = 0

Factor.

(y - 2)(y - 3) = 0

y - 2 = 0  or y - 3 = 0

y = 2  or y = 3

Now substitute 2 for y in the first equation and solve for x.

x + y = 5

x + 2 = 5

x = 3

One solution is x = 3; y = 2, or (3, 2).

Now substitute 3 for y in the first equation and solve for x.

x + y = 5

x + 3 = 5

x = 2

Another solution is x = 2; y = 3, or (3, 2).

Answer: (3, 2), (2, 3)

Some campaigners want a maximum wage. This would be in a ratio of 10:1 with the minimum wage. If the minimum wage is £8.72 an ho
Nady [450]

Answer:

The value of the maximum wage is £87.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the maximum wage given the ratio it has with the minimum wage

To get the value of the maximum wage, we proceed to multiply the value of the minimum wage by 10

Mathematically, that would be;

8.72 * 10 = £87.2

What's the 2-step rules input 5,9,7,10 output 16 28 22 31
snow_tiger [21]

To solve this problem, we have to figure out a rule for the function. We are told that it is a two-step rule, so it is most likely the input multiplied by a coefficient plus a constant. Let’s let the input be represented by the variable x and the output be represented by the variable y. Using our knowledge, we can see that the outputs are close to triple the input, so we set up the preliminary equation:

y = 3x + b,

where b is a constant. If we want to solve for b, we must plug in one of our input/output pairs. If we plug in (5,16), we get the following:

16 = 3(5) + b

16 = 15 + b

1 = b

Then, we should substitute in this value into our equation and check our work.

y = 3x + 1

If we plug in the other points, this equation yields a true statement, so we know it is correct.

Hope this helps!
