4x+5y=-13;5x-2y=-8 solve elimination method Step by step

1 answer:

8 0

4x + 5y = -13
2(4x + 5y) = 2(-13)
8x + 10y = -26 (equation 1)

5x - 2y = -8
5(5x - 2y) = 5(-8)
25x - 10y = -40 (equation 2)

equation 1 + equation 2,
(8x + 10y) + (25x - 10y) = (-26) + (-40)
8x + 10y + 25x - 10y = -26 + -40
33x = -66
x = -2

substitute x = -2 into equation 1,
8x + 10y = -26
8(-2) + 10y = -26
-16 + 10y = -26
10y = -10
y = -1

The values of x and y are -2 and -1 respectively.

H/j=15 solve for j <br> Please answer

Katyanochek1 [597]

Hey!

Let's write the problem,
$\frac{H}{j}=15$
Multiply both sides by $j$ in order to undo the fraction.
$\frac{H}{j}j=15j$
$H=15j$
Let's switch sides so that we end up with $j$ on the left side.
$15j=H$
Divide both sides by $15$ .
$\frac{15j}{15}=\frac{H}{15}$

Our final answer would be,
$j=\frac{H}{15}$

Thanks!
