Use elimination method to solve 5x+y=-10 7x-3y=-36

Mathematics
1 answer:
k0ka [10]3 years ago

5x+y=-10\\ \\ 7x-3y=-36

Let's multiply the first equation by 3. (As you can see y's coefficient in the first one is 1 and in the second one is -3 , we will multiply the first equation by 3 so when we add the equations their sum will be 0)

3\cdot (5x+y)=3\cdot -10\\ \\ 15x+3y=-30

Now let's add this new equation and our second equation.

7x-3y=-36\\ \\ 15x+3y=-30\\ \\ (15x+3y)+(7x-3y)=(-30)+(-36)\\ \\ 15x+7x+3y-3y=-30-36\\ \\ 22x=-66\\ \\ x=\frac { -66 }{ 22 } \\ \\ x=-3

We found x=-3

Now let's plug x's value in one of the equations to find y's value.

x=-3\\ \\ 5x+y=-10\\ \\ 5\cdot -3+y=-10\\ \\ -15+y=-10\\ \\ y=-10+15\\ \\ y=5

So we found y=5

Solution ;

(-3, 5)

You make punch for a party. The ratio og ginger ale to fruit juice is 8 cups to 3 cups. You decide to add 4 more cups of ginger
Dvinal [7]
To get the answer we can use proportion
8 ginger ----------------- 3 fruit
12 ginger ----------------x
Crossmultiply now
8x=12*3                /:8
x=\frac{12*3}{8}
x=<u />\frac{36}{8}  \\ x=4.5
To not change ratio we have to have 4.5 cups of fruilt juice. We initialy had 3, so we have to add 1.5 cup of fruit juice.

Graph the six terms of a finite series where a1 = −3 and r = 1.5.
s344n2d4d5 [400]
We are given the first term and the common ratio, this means they belong to a geometric series.

For the given series:

a_{1}=-3 \\ &#10;r=1.5

Each term of the geometric series is obtained by multiplying the previous term by common ratio.

So the next terms will be:

-4.5, -6.75, -10.125, -15.1875, -22.78125

The general formula for the G.P would be:

a_{n}=-3(1.5)^{n-1}

On plotting the series, the result will be like this:
