Solve the system of linear equations. separate the x- and y- values with a coma.
1 answer:
Solve the following system:
{7 x - 3 y = 37 | (equation 1)
{14 x + 11 y = 23 | (equation 2)
Swap equation 1 with equation 2:
{14 x + 11 y = 23 | (equation 1)
{7 x - 3 y = 37 | (equation 2)
Subtract 1/2 × (equation 1) from equation 2:
{14 x + 11 y = 23 | (equation 1)
{0 x - (17 y)/2 = 51/2 | (equation 2)
Multiply equation 2 by 2/17:
{14 x + 11 y = 23 | (equation 1)
{0 x - y = 3 | (equation 2)
Multiply equation 2 by -1:
{14 x + 11 y = 23 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -3 | (equation 2)
Subtract 11 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{14 x+0 y = 56 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -3 | (equation 2)
Divide equation 1 by 14:
{x+0 y = 4 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -3 | (equation 2)
Collect results:
Answer: {x = 4
{y = -3

Answer:
Here's one way to do it.
Step-by-step explanation:
-24 ÷ (-4)
-24 is the final number on the number line
-4 means you count by 4s on the number line moving backwards.
- Start at 0 facing forward.
- Move backwards in steps of four units from 0 to -24.
- Count the number of steps you took (six).
Answer: +6 (The sign is + because you are still facing forward).
