If you would like to solve the system of equations, you can do this using the following steps:
5p - 3r = 1 /*2
8p + 6r = 4
__________
10p - 6r = 2
<span>8p + 6r = 4
</span>__________
10p - 6r + 8p + 6r = 2 + 4
18p = 6
p = 6/18
p = 1/3
<span>5p - 3r = 1
</span>5 * 1/3 - 3r = 1
5/3 - 3r = 1
5/3 - 1 = 3r
5/3 - 3/3 = 3r
2/3 = 3r
r = 2/9
(p, r) = (1/3, 2/9)
The correct result would be <span>(1/3, 2/9)</span>.
Answer:
can't see image
Step-by-step explanation:
R-9s=2 add 9s to both sides
r=2+9s making 3r-3s=-10 become:
3(2+9s)-3s=-10 perform indicated multiplication on left side
6+27s-3s=-10 combine like terms on left side
6+24s=-10 subtract 6 from both sides
24s=-16 divide both sides by 24
s=-16/24
s=-2/3, making r-9s=2 become:
r-9(-2/3)=2 perform indicated multiplication on left side
r+6=2 subtract 6 from both sides
r=-4
So s= -2/3 and r= -4
