How to do I do solving systems of equations by elimination

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andre45 [30]4 years ago

If you have two equations, you will multiply one of them so it cancels out the other one. For Example, 2x-y=16        3x-y=28You will multiply the second equation by -1 which brings us to 2x-y=16    -3x+y=-28you will add both equations together which will leave you with-x=-12x=12Then, you plug that in. 2x12=24.    24-16=8.    3x12=36     36-8=28    And, You're done!

if the length of a rectangle is decreased by 2cm and the width is increased by 6 cm the result will be a square the area of this
Nastasia [14]

The area of the rectangle is 105 square cm

<h3>How to determine the rectangle area?</h3>

Represent the dimensions of the rectangle with x and y

So, the length of the square would be:

Length = x - 2

Width = y + 6

The areas are then calculated as:

Rectangle = xy

Square = (x -2)(y + 6)

The relationship between the areas is:

(x -2)(y + 6) = 64 + xy

Expand

xy + 6x - 2y - 12 = 64 + xy

This gives

6x - 2y - 12 = 64

Add 12 to both sides

6x - 2y= 76

Divide through by 2

3x - y = 38

By trial by error, we have:

x = 15 and y = 7

The rectangle area is then calculated as:

Rectangle = xy

This gives

Rectangle = 15 * 7

Evaluate

Rectangle = 105

Hence, the area of the rectangle is 105 square cm
