Answer:
ok so first you do this 25.75 + 6.20 = 31.95 and then you just do like this 53.65 - 31.95 = 21.7 that would be the answer and the answer is 21.7
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this help and if this is wrong i am very sorry
Answer:
y = - 9 and x = - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis is
y = c
where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through.
The line passes through (- 2, - 9) with y- coordinate - 9, thus
y = - 9 ← equation of horizontal line
The equation of a vertical line parallel to the y- axis is
x = c
where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.
The line passes through (- 2, - 9) with x- coordinate - 2, thus
x = - 2 ← equation of vertical line
<span>8 + 5n = -72
5n = -72 - 8
5n = - 80
n = -80/5
n = -16</span>
Answer:
(There's actually a few ways of solving this, but here's one)
Multiplying the second equation by 2.
EDIT: Because the question says it will eliminate a variable "when combined", implying adding the systems together. The actual correct answer is multiplying the second equation by -2.
(multiplying the second equation by -2 is the actual answer, my apologies)
Step-by-step explanation:
So it's clear that they are referring to the elimination method and not the substitution method for solving systems of equations.
In the elimination method, you subtract 2 equations in the hopes of the elimination of a variable.
If you multiply the second equation, 2x + 6y = 24, by 2, you get, 4x + 12y = 48.
This is helpful because when you subtract this from the first one, you eliminate x.
4x + y = 4
-(4x + 12y = 48)
is
-11y = -44
