What you need to do is give these problems a common denominator. Which makes 3/21 and14/21 respectively. Logically, you need to walk 4/21 of the trail. This can’t be simplified further.

Use Cramer Rule to solve the following system: 8x−5y=70 and 9x+7y=3

nlexa [21]

Answer:

$(x,y) = (5,-6)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\underline{\textbf{Determinant of a matrix.}}\\\\\text{For a}~ 2 \times 2 ~ \text{matrix,}\\\\\begin{vmatrix} a_1&a_2\\b_1&b_2 \end{vmatrix} = a_1b_2 - a_2b_1\\\\\\\text{For a}~ 3 \times 3 ~ \text{matrix,}\\\\\begin{vmatrix} a_1&a_2&a_3\\ b_1&b_2&b_3\\ c_1&c_2&c_3 \end{vmatrix} = a_1\begin{vmatrix} b_2&b_3\\c_2&c_3 \end{vmatrix} - a_2 \begin{vmatrix} b_1&b_3\\c_1&c_3 \end{vmatrix}+ a_3 \begin{vmatrix} b_1&b_2\\c_1&c_2 \end{vmatrix}\\\\\\$

$~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=a_1(b_2c_3-b_3c_2) -a_2(b_1c_3-b_3c_1) +a_3(b_1c_2-b_2c_1)$

$\underline{\textbf{Cramer's Rule to solve a system of two equations.}}\\\\\text{Consider the system of two equations:}\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~a_1x + b_1 y= c_1\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~a_2x +b_2 y = c_2\\\\\text{Here,}\\\\x = \dfrac{D_x}{D}= \dfrac{\begin{vmatrix} c_1&b_1\\c_2&b_2 \end{vmatrix}}{\begin{vmatrix} a_1&b_1\\a_2&b_2 \end{vmatrix}}\\\\\\ y= \dfrac{D_y}{D}= \dfrac{\begin{vmatrix} a_1&c_1\\a_2&c_2 \end{vmatrix}}{\begin{vmatrix} a_1&b_1\\a_2&b_2 \end{vmatrix}}\\\\$

$\underline{\textbf{Solution:}}\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~8x-5y = 70~~~~~~...(i)\\\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~9x +7y = 3~~~~~~~...(ii)\\\\\text{Applying Cramer's rule:}\\\\x = \dfrac{D_x}{D}\\\\\\~~=\dfrac{\begin{vmatrix} 70& -5 \\3&7 \end{vmatrix}}{\begin{vmatrix} 8& -5\\ 9& 7\end{vmatrix}}\\\\\\~~=\dfrac{70(7) -(-5)(3)}{(8)(7)-(-5)(9)}\\\\\\~~=\dfrac{490+15}{56+45}\\\\\\~~=\dfrac{505}{101}\\\\\\~~=5$

$y = \dfrac{D_y}{D}\\\\\\~~=\dfrac{\begin{vmatrix} 8& 70 \\9&3 \end{vmatrix}}{\begin{vmatrix} 8& -5\\ 9& 7\end{vmatrix}}\\\\\\~~=\dfrac{(8)(3) -(70)(9)}{(8)(7)-(-5)(9)}\\\\\\~~=\dfrac{24-630}{56+45}\\\\\\~~=-\dfrac{606}{101}\\\\\\~~=-6$

$\textbf{Hence, the solution to the system of equation is}~ (x,y) = (5,-6)$

Please help, see attachment for equation!

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the last option

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic equation

2 = - x + x² - 4

Order the equation from the highest power to the lowest power. Do not consider 2 because it is not consider in the options given.

x² - x - 4 = 0

Identify a, b and c

(1) x² -(1) x - 4 = 0

a = 1 b = -1 c = - 6

Substitution

$\frac{-(-1) +- \sqrt{(-1)^{2} - 4(1)((-4)}}{2(1)}$
