4x + 5y = 3 2x + 3y = 1Solve by elimination

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lesechka [4]1 year ago

Answer:

The solution to the system of equations is:

x = 2, and y = -1

Explanation:

Given the pair of equations:

4x + 5y = 3 ..........................................................................(1)

2x + 3y = 1............................................................................(2)

To solve this by elimination:

Multiply equation (2) by 2, to eliminate x

Equation (2) becomes

4x + 6y = 2 .........................................................................(3)

Subtract equation (1) from (3)

4x - 4x + 6y - 5y = 2 - 3

y = -1 ....................................................................................(4)

Multiply equation (1) by 3 and equation (2) by 5 to eliminate y

Equation (1) becomes

12x + 15y = 9 .......................................................................(5)

Equation (2) becomes

10x + 15y = 5 ........................................................................(6)

Subtract equation (6) from (5)

12x - 10x + 15y - 15y = 9 - 5

2x = 4

Divide both sides by 2

x = 4/2 = 2 ............................................................................(7)

From equations (7) and (4)

x = 2, and y = -1

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The negative in front of the parenthesis changes the signs of the numbers and variables inside the parenthesis. We can rewrite as

4 - x - 1 = 6 and

3 - x = 6 so

- x = 3 and

x = -3

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

2x+2y ≤ 64

x=2y+2

Step-by-step explanation:

x = length

y = width

the length is 2 more than twice the width or 2 more than twice y

x = 2+2y

the perimeter of the garden = 2 times the length + 2 times the width

she have 64ft of wire so the perimeter should be equal or less than 64 ft

64 ≥ 2x + 2y

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Espero que isto ajude!

Step-by-step explanation:

q  duplica  logo a razão q =2

1 hora = 60 minutos

4 hs *  60 min = 240 minutos ou 240 : 6    = 40  vezes   6 minutos

Nota >  240 minutos tem 40 * 6 minutos

n = 40

a1 = 6 min  = 3

a2 = 12 min = 3 * 2 = 6

q3 = 18 min  =  6  *2  =12

an = a1 * q^n-1

a40  = 3 * 2^40-1

a40 = 3 * 2^39

a40  = 3 * 5497559  =16492677 >>>>>
