First thing you should do is reduce coefficients.

1st equation has all multiples of '2'. Divide by 2
---> x +3y = -6

2nd equation has multiples of 5. Divide by 5.
---> x - y = 2

Now elimination part is easier.
Eliminate 'x' variable by subtracting 2nd equation from 1st.

x + 3y = -6
-(x - y = 2)
----------------------
4y = -8

Solve for 'y'
4y = -8

y = (-8)/4 = -2

Substitute value for 'y' back into 2nd equation:
x - (-2) = 2
x + 2 = 2
x = 0

Solution to system is:
x=0, y =-2

Classify the equation, 7x+6=7x-5, as having one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 6 = 7x - 5

Collecting like terms

7x - 7x = -5 - 6

The x is canceled out so no solution

Help Please! And THANK YOU!

Semenov [28]

Answer:

$100$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3.75 \times 100}{1.50 \times 100} = \frac{375}{150}$

<h3>so the dividend and divisor were both multiplied by 100.</h3>

What is the definition of marginal utility? A. The average utility from consuming a good or service multiplied by the number of

Ilya [14]

Answer: Option 'E' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Marginal utility is the addition utility derived from each successive unit of a particular good.

so, marginal utility is the change in utility from consuming an addition unit of a good or service.

Mathematically, it is expressed as

$MU=\dfrac{\Delta TU}{\Delta Q}$

Hence, Option 'E' is correct.

Let a, n, b, r, and k be integers. If a = nb+r and k|a and k|b, then k|r

Kryger [21]

Answer:

Proof for $k|r$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a, n, b, r and k are integers.

Also,

$a = nb + r$

Since k divides a and b, we can write,

a = rk and b = sk, where r and s are integers.

Now, we have to prove that k divides r as well that is $k|r$

Putting value of a and b in the equation, we get:

$rk = n(sk) + r\\r = rk - nsk\\r = (r-sn)k$

Since, (r-sn) is an integer, k divides r.
