What is 5y-4x =-7 2y+4x=14 X=? Y=?

Alja [10]3 years ago

Answer:

X=3

Y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

In solving simultaneous equations, there are three methods, we have the elimination method, substitution method or graphical method. But for the purpose of this question, we would be using Elimination method.

5y-4x =-7 Equation 1

2y+4x=14 Equation 2

Since x has the same coefficient, it's easy to eliminate by adding up the two equations

5y+2y=7y

-4x+(+4x)=0

-7+(+14)=7

We have 7y=7

Divide both sides by 7,

y=7/7

y=1

Substituting for y in equation 2.

2(1)+4x=14

2+4x=14

4x=14-2

4x=12

x=12/4

x= 3

Find the sum of the first 10<br> terms.<br> 40,37,34,31,...
MArishka [77]

Answer:

It seems each number is 3 less than the previous number.

We must sum these 10 numbers

40, 37, 34, 31, 28, 25, 22, 19, 16, 13

The sum would equal the average of the middle 2 numbers times 10.

(28 + 25) / 2 = 53 / 2 = 26.5

We multiply by 10 because there are 10 numbers and this equals

265
