What does this mean?: "By discovering the literature of our neighbors, we may also learn about ourselves"

1 answer:

3 0

I think the point of the relation of the quote to Atwood's poem is that what we see (or presume) and what we experience can be two totally different things. The poem talks about the striking differences between Canada as tourists see it and Canada as the speaker sees it through her own experience. For the tourists, <span>Saskatchewan is just another lake with "convenient" places to pose and take photos. For her, it is a very personal place of memories and meanings. In relation to the quote, we need to really meet our neighbors, instead of just believing the superficial images. We can really meet them through literature. By doing that, we will meet ourselves too, and realize the deep connection that binds us to other, different people and cultures.</span>

Given the system of linear equations. Choose all of the options that could be used to solve the system using addition

myrzilka [38]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The only operations that could be used to solve the system using addition are the first and the third operation.

To solve the problem, we need to check and discard each of the given option to see if the operations works to solve the system using addition, so, trying the given options.

The system of equation is:

$x+y=7\\12x+y=5$

We can see that the only way to solve the system using addition, is multiplying the first or the second equation by -1, so, we can eliminate the variable "y", let's prove that:

- First operation: Multiplying<u> the first equation</u> by -1 and add the equations together,

$x+y=7\\12x+y=5$

$x*(-1)+y*(-1)=7*(-1)\\12x+y=5$

$-x+-y=-7\\12x+y=5$

Adding the equations, we have:

$12x-x+y-y=5-7$

$11x+=5-7$

$11x+=-2$

$x=-\frac{2}{11}$

We can see that we can solve the problem using the first operation the operation.

- Third operation: Multiplying <u>the second equation</u> by -1 and add the equations together,

$x+y=7\\12x+y=5$

$x+y=7\\12x*(-1)+y*(-1)=5*(-1)$

$x+y=7\\-12x+-y=-5$

Adding the equations we have:

$-12x+x+y-y=-5+7$

$-11x=2$

$x=-\frac{2}{11}$

We can see that we can solve the problem using the third operation.

Also, we can see that in both equations the variable "y" has the same coefficient, the only operations that could work to solve the system using addition are the first and the third operation.

Have a nice day!
