Solve the following system of equations

Mathematics
1 answer:
Katyanochek1 [597]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -9

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can first multiply the 2nd equation by -6, so we have:

-6*[-0.8x+0.4y=6]\\=4.8x-2.4y=-36

Now, we add up this equation to the 1st equation given to eliminate y and solve for x. Shown below:

1.2x+2.4y=-18\\4.8x-2.4y=-36\\---------\\6x=-54\\x=-9

So, we have the value of x to be -9

Now, we substitute this value in 1st equation and solve for y:

1.2x+2.4y=-18\\1.2(-9)+2.4y=-18\\-10.8+2.4y=-18\\2.4y=-7.2\\y=-3

The value of y is -3

So,

<u>x = -9</u>

<u>y = -3</u>

HELP HELP !!!! PLEASE I NEED HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM !!!
Vesnalui [34]
This one is best done by elimination:

We need to start 4 meters away, so B is clearly wrong. 

We first move towards Mr. Wilson (i.e. distance is decreasing) so A is wrong.

Our speed is faster on the way back, so the two sloped section must have differing slopes, so D is wrong.
(D also doesn't start at 4, it's wrong for two reasons.)

Only C is left.

We can check each part to make sure. First we start at 4m, then move away, then stay still (zero slope) for three seconds, then move back faster (higher slope). All parts check out ok.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The correct answer is -7.5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Principle amount = 12000

Interest = 4320

time = ?

rate = 4.8 simple interest

Solution:

We know that simple Interest I = (P*t*r)/100

then t = I*100/p*r

putting values in formula:

t = 4320*100/4.8*12000

= 432000/57,600

= 7.5 years
