Answer:

The solution of the given system of equations is,

x=\frac{b^2+ac}{a^2+b};\; y=\frac{ab-c}{a^2+b}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are :

<em>x</em> + a<em>y</em> = b          .......(1)

a<em>x</em> - b<em>y</em> = c        .......(2)

We will use 'Substitution Method' to solve the given system of equations.

In this method, we will find out the value of either of the two variables that is '<em>x</em>' and '<em>y</em>' from one of the two equations in terms of the another variable  and then substitute that value in the other equation to find the value of the another variable.

Now, we will be finding out the value of '<em>x</em>' in terms of '<em>y</em>' from equation (1) and then substitute it in the equation (2).

Consider the equation (1), that is,

   <em>x</em> + a<em>y</em> = b ⇒ <em>x</em> = b - a<em>y</em>          ........(3)

Substitute the value of '<em>x</em>' from (3) in (2), we get

  a(b - a<em>y</em>) - b<em>y</em> = c

⇒ab - a²<em>y</em> - b<em>y</em> = c

⇒-a²<em>y</em> - b<em>y</em> = c - ab

⇒-<em>y</em>(a²+b) = c - ab

⇒<em>y</em>(a²+b) = ab - c

\implies y=\frac{ab-c}{a^{2}+b}

Now, substituting the above value of '<em>y</em>' in equation (3), we get

x=b-a(\frac{ab-c}{a^2+b})

\implies x=\frac{b(a^2+b)-a(ab-c)}{a^2+b}

\implies x=\frac{a^2b+b^2-a^2b+ac}{a^2+b}

\implies x = \frac{b^2+ac}{a^2+b}

Hence, the solution of the given system of equations is,

x = \frac{b^2+ac}{a^2+b} ;\; y = \frac{ab-c}{a^2+b}

If 5x – 4 = 31, what is the value of x?​
Lunna [17]

Answer:

x = 5 \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

So, to answer this problem, I'll use the reverse method.

31 - 4 = 27,

So how many times, can 5 go into 27?

The closest factor of 5 to 27 is 25.

5 can go in to 27,  5 times.

Continuing on, there is a 2 left over, so the answer to your question is

x = 5 \frac{2}{5}

5 · 5 \frac{2}{5} - 4 = 31

Let me know if I am incorrect and I will attempt to find the right answer for you.

Can you please help me solve this equation? x+9−3≤14
aleksley [76]
X+9-3≤14

Add 3 to the other side. (do the inverse of subtraction)

x+9≤17

Subtract 9 on both sides. (the inverse of addition)

x≤8

I hope this helps!

Answer:

A and B are correct, but A is most correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

just do Pythagorean theorem and see which numbers add up to each other. if you do them for all 4 answers, you see d and c do not equal to each other. b is almost correct, and a comes out exact.
