-6x+2y=-18. -3x-2y=54

Mathematics
1 answer:
luda_lava [24]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -4

y = -21

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will need to set up a system of equations and get rid of a variable.

-3x - 2y = 54

-6x + 2y = -18

From this, we can see that the 'y' variables can be cancelled out if we add the two together. This means that we must add these equations to each other to cancel out the 'y' variables:

-3x - 2y = 54

-6x + 2y = -18

-------------------- +

-9x = 36

x = -4

Since we have solved for 'x', we can simply plug this value into an equation to find 'y'.

-3(-4) -2y = 54

12 - 2y = 54

-2y = 42

y = -21.

Two positive integers are 3 units apart on a number line. Their product is 108. Which equation can be used to solve for m, the g
nikitadnepr [17]
If the greater integer is m, then the smaller integer must be (m-3) because the integers are 3 units apart on a number line. It cannot be in front of m, because m is the greater so it must be behind m meaning it is 3 units less. Product is the technical term for the result of a multiplication problem so m(m-3) = 108 would be the answer.

Final Answer: m(m-3) = 108

The numbers on two consecutively numbered gym lockers have a sum of 141. What are the locker​ numbers?
lesantik [10]

Answer:

70 and 71

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive means in a row

x is the first number

x+1 is the next number

x+ x+1 = 141

Combine like terms

2x+1 =141

Subtract 1 from each side

2x+1-1=141-1

2x= 140

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =140/2

x = 70

The two lockers are 70,71

The side of a triangle with 3 equal sides is 7 inches shorter than the side of a square. The perimeter of the square is 39 inche
Aleksandr [31]

 length of  square = 18


x = side of square

x-7 = side of triangle

3(x-7) + 39 = 4x

3x-21 + 39 = 4x

3x+18 = 4x

18=x

square    18x4 =72(perimeter square)

triangle side  (18-7=11)

11x3 = 33(perimeter triangle) 

72-33=39
