Solve the system using elimination.5x-9y=12x-9y=-12

Mathematics
1 answer:
NemiM [27]1 year ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 6

y = 2

Explanation:

To solve the system using elimination, we need to multiply the second equation by -1, so the second equation is equivalent to:

x - 9y = -12

-1 (x - 9y) = -1 (-12)

-x + 9y = 12

Then, we can sum this equation and the first equation. So:

5x - 9y = 12

-x + 9y = 12

4x + 0 = 24

So, we can solve for x, as:

4x = 24

4x/4 = 24/4

x = 6

Then, we can replace x by 6 on the first equation and solve for y, so:

5x - 9y = 12

5(6) - 9y = 12

30 - 9y = 12

30 - 9y - 30 = 12 - 30

-9y = -18

-9y/(-9) = -18/(-9)

y = 2

Therefore, the solution of the system is x = 6 and y = 2

Determine the truth value of the statement if the domain for all variables is the set of nonnegative integers.
Nadya [2.5K]

The domain for all variables of the set of nonnegative integers given is true.

<h3>How to explain the truth value?</h3>

From the information given, we are given ∃n∀m(m< n). This implies that for all m, there exists n such that m × n where m and n are non negative integers.

This statement is true because for any non negative integer, the least value is zero and the set is unbounded.

What is the equation of a line passing through (-6, 5) and having a slope of 1/3 ? A. B. C. D. y = 3x + 7
stepan [7]

Answer:

y = 1/3 x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given; the line is passing through, (-6,5) and the slope is 1/3

We can get its equation;

We would take, a point (x,y) and the given point (-6,5)

Therefore; Since slope = Δy/Δx

Then;

(5-y)/ (-6-x) = 1/3

3(5-y) = -6 -x

15 - 3y = -6 - x

we get;

3y = 6 + x + 15

3y = x + 21

Therefore;

<u>y = 1/3 x + 7</u>
