Answer:
-<u>One Equation</u>: is set equal to a variable
Example:
y = 2x + 1
x + 3y = -12
You already have y, plug it back into x + 3y = -12
x + 3(2x + 1) = -12
x + 6x + 3 = -12
7x + 3 = -12
(Subtract 3 from each side)
7x = -15
(Divide by 7)
x = - 2.14
-<u>No Equation</u>: is set equal to a variable
Example:
2x + y = 10
4× + 2y = -3
Subtract 2x from each side of 2x + y = 10, you should get y= -2x + 10. Now that you have found y, substitute y into 4x+ 2y = -3.
4x + 2(-2x + 10) = -3
4x + -4x + 20 = -3
(Subtract 20 from each side)
4x + -4x = -23
(Add 4x and -4x)
0 = -23
No Solution
<u>-Both</u><u> </u><u>Equations</u>: are set equal to a variable
Example:
y = x + 5
y = -x + 3
(you already have y so plug it into the other equation to solve for x)
-x + 3 = x + 5
(Add -x on both sides)
3 = 2x + 5
(subtract 5 from both sides)
-2 = 2x
(Divide by 2 on each side)
x = -1
I hope this helped!
Answer:
Answer is (√1500) /(2√15 )= 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Money invested S + B = $5000 - - - - (a)
Money earned can be represented in S & B as follows:
0.07*S + 0.14*B =$500 - - - - (b)
Equations a & b are two equations with two unknowns.
From equation a:
S = 5000 - B
Replace S in equation b
0.07*(5000 - B) + 0.14*B =$500
0.07B = 500 - 350 = $150
B = 150/0.07 = $2142.86
S = 5000 - 2142.86 = $2857.14
Good luck
$62 is both numbers added together
