A system of equations is shown below: x + 3y = 5 (equation 1) 7x − 8y = 6 (equation 2) A student wants to prove that if equation

2 is kept unchanged and equation 1 is replaced with the sum of equation 1 and a multiple of equation 2, the solution to the new system of equations is the same as the solution to the original system of equations. If equation 2 is multiplied by 1, which of the following steps should the student use for the proof?

(1) x + 3y = 5

(2) 7x - 8y = 6

Condition: equation (2) is multiplied by 1

If you multiply equation (1) by 1 and add the equation (2), you get

  x + 3y = 5
7x  - 8y = 6
----------------
8x - 5y = 11

So, if the student proves that the system formed by the new equation and the second equation is the same, he/she will have the proof:

So, the answer is "s<span>how that the solution to the system of equations 8x − 5y = 11 and 7x − 8y = 6 is the same as the solution to the given system of equations"</span>

The sum of 2 numbers is 44 the smaller number is 16 less than the larger number what are the numbers
Anon25 [30]
X=27 and y=11
if you let each number equal x and y we know the sum is 38 so x+y=38
and the smaller is 16 less than the larger
. so if we say the smaller number is 7 then x-16=y
these can be solved as a simultaneous equation. x+(x-16)=38
2x-16=38
2x=54
x=27
(27)-16=y
y=11
so the answer is x=27 y=11

Geometry help quickly
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

RQ = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

KR is an angle bisector and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other two sides, that is

\frac{KP}{KQ} = \frac{PR}{RQ} , substitute values

\frac{50}{45} = \frac{38-x}{x} ( cross- multiply )

45(38 - x) = 50x ← distribute left side

1710 - 45x = 50x ( add 45x to both sides )

1710 = 95x ( divide both sides by 95 )

18 = x

That is RQ = 18
