Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
x - 2y = 12
5x + 3y = -44
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
x - 2y = 12
- [Multiplication Property of Equality] Multiply everything by -5: -5x + 10y = -60
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
-5x + 10y = -60
5x + 3y = -44
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine 2 equations: 13y = -104
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 13 on both sides: y = -8
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define original equation: x - 2y = 12
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: x - 2(-8) = 12
- Multiply: x + 16 = 12
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 16 on both sides: x = -4
Answer: Pt1= Only x=5
Pt2=Is not x=5 is an extraneous solution though I believe It is x=-2 is an extraneous solution
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to this question is the school is going to have to rent 2 vans extra. The reason is because each van hols 8 people right. for the 6 vans that the school already owns, that will be 48 students in vans. When you subract that from 59, you get 11 students that still need a van, so 11 students can not fit in one extra van so the school would need two. Hope this gives you what you were looking for. God bless, and hope this helped. Also, please let me know if it was correct.
