Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
3x - 5y = - 2 → (1)
2x + y = 3 → (2)
Multiply (2) by 5 will eliminate y when added to (1), that is
10x + 5y = 15 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term
(3x + 10x) + (- 5y + 5y) = (- 2 + 15)
13x = 13 ( divide both sides by 13 )
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into (2) for corresponding value of y
2 + y = 3 ⇒ y = 3 - 2 = 1
Solution is (1, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
are in the solution:
(3,1)
(-1,2)
(6,0)
(0,0)
are not
(-2,-1)
(0,-4)
Charles' weight = Edith's weight + 20% of Edith's weight
We'll use a variable to represent Edith's weight, x.
The decimal form of 20% is 0.2.
60 = x + 0.2x
60 = 1.2x
x = 50
Edith's weight is 50kg.
Hope this helps!
