Solve the system of linear equations using multiplication.

Answer:

(8,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is:

3x+3y=21

6x+12y=36

Since I prefer to use smaller numbers I'm going to divide both sides of the first equation by 3 and both sides of the equation equation by 6.

This gives me the system:

x+y=7

x+2y=6

We could solve the first equation for x and replace the second x with that.

Let's do that.

x+y=7

Subtract y on both sides:

x=7-y

So we are replacing the second x in the second equation with (7-y) which gives us:

(7-y)+2y=6

7-y+2y=6

7+y=6

y=6-7

y=-1

Now recall the first equation we arranged so that x was the subject. I'm referring to x=7-y.

We can now find x given that y=-1 using the equation x=7-y.

Let's do that.

x=7-y with y=-1:

x=7-(-1)

x=7+1

x=8

So the solution is (8,-1).

We can check this point by plugging it into both equations.

If both equations render true for that point, then we have verify the solution.

Let's try it.

3x+3y=21 with (x,y)=(8,-1):

3(8)+3(-1)=21

24+(-3)=21

21=21 is a true equation so the "solution" looks promising still.

6x+12y=36 with (x,y)=(8,-1):

6(8)+12(-1)=36

48+(-12)=36

36=36 is also true so the solution has been verified since both equations render true for that point.

3x + 3y = 21

6x + 12y = 36

\frac{6x + 12y=36}{6} \\\\x+2y=6\\\\x=6-2y\\----------\\3(6-2y)+3y=21\\\\18-6y+3y=21\\\\18-3y=21\\\\-1(-3y=3)\\\\3y=-3\\\\y=-1

3x+3y=21\\\\3x+3(-1)=21\\3x-3=21\\3x=24\\x=8

x = 8 and y = -1

<h3><u>Answer</u> :</h3>

:\implies\sf\:x-\dfrac{3}{4}=2x-\dfrac{9}{7}

:\implies\sf\:\dfrac{9}{7}-\dfrac{3}{4}=2x-x

:\implies\sf\:\dfrac{36-21}{28}=x

:\implies\boxed{\bf{\red{x=\dfrac{15}{28}}}}

Days before a presidential​ election, a nationwide random sample of registered voters was taken. Based on this random​ sample, i
erica [24]

Answer:

We are 95% confident that the percentage of registered voters in the nation planning on voting for Robert Smith is between 49% and 55%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Margin of Error = ±3%

Sample Proportion = 52%

Confidence level = 95%

The 95% confidence interval is :

Sample proportion ± margin of error

52% ± 3%

Lower boundary = 52% - 3% = 49%

Upper boundary = 52% + 3% = 55%

The interpretation is that at a given confidence level ; the popukation proportion based on the sample proportion and margin of error is in the confidence interval.

Is each fraction in simples form? Write yes or no 2/4
shusha [124]
Hey there! :D

When a fraction is still divisible by a number, then it is not in it's simplest form. 

For example, 3/6. 

I know for a fact that 6/3=2 <== 3 is also divisible by itself. 

3/6 (3/3=1) (6/6=1) 

1/2 <== simplest form. 

Try the same with 2/4. 

4 is divisible by 2. 

4/2= 2

2/2=1

1/2 is the simplest form. 

I hope this helps!
