Substitute -4×+y=6 , -5×-y=21

Mathematics
1 answer:
Talja [164]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

(x, y) = (- 3, - 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

- 4x + y = 6 → (1)

- 5x - y = 21 → (2)

rearrange equation (1) expressing y in terms of x

y = 6 + 4x → (3)

Substitute y = 6 + 4x into equation (2)

- 5x - (6 + 4x) = 21

- 5x - 6 - 4x = 21

- 9x - 6 = 21 ( add 6 to both sides )

- 9x = 27 ( divide both sides by - 9 )

x = - 3

Substitute x = - 3 into (3)

y = 6 - 12 = - 6

solution is (- 3, - 6)

The triangle to solve for has a leg or 12 feet, hypotenuse of 20 feet, so solve for Pythagoras a^{2}  +  b^{2}  =  c^{2}  for a

a =  \sqrt{c^{2} -b^{2}}

Fiona's Fashion Store is world renowned for its buttoned uniforms. A collection of 36 shirts and 42 jackets contains 842buttons.
Oduvanchick [21]
To solve the problem, what you must do is a system of two equations with two Ingonites that describe the problem.
 Let:
 x = number of shirt buttons.
 y = number of buttons on jackets.
 Writing the system:
 36x + 42y = 842
 6x + 7y = 137
 We observe that the system is linearly dependent, therefore, it can not be solved.
 However, the solution is to solve the system of two equations with two unknowns.
In order to solve it, the system must be linearly independent.
