Step-by-step explanation:
are in the solution:
(3,1)
(-1,2)
(6,0)
(0,0)
are not
(-2,-1)
(0,-4)
We call two numbers a and b, notice a>b
<span>The sum of two numbers is 110: a+b=110
</span><span>The larger number is 2 less than 7 times the smaller: a=7b-2
And by replacing a=7b-2 we have an equation: 7b-2+b=110
or 8b=110+2, and 8b=112, that means b=112:8= 14
We have two numbers: 14 and 96</span>
2x+4y=0
3x+y=10
So what we want to do is get y onto one side by itself using whatever equation you like.
So I'm taking 2x+4y=0 and subtracting 4y from both sides
So we end up with
2x=4y
Divide both sides by four
2/4x is 1/2 x
So we get 1/2x=y
Take this and plug it into the other equation
3x+y=10
3x+1/2x=10
Add your like terms
3 1/2x=10
Putting 3 1/2 as a mixed number we get 7/2
So..
7/2x=10
Multiply by the opposite of 7/2 on both sides
Which is 2/7 this will cancel out the left side.
So we end up with
X= 10•2/7
X=20/7
Which is 2 and 6/7 as a mixed number.
Answer:
x = 1 y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
- Plug the value of y into the other equation.
x + 3y = -11
x + 3(-4x) = -11
x - 12x = -11
-11x = -11
x = 1
- Now substitute the value of x into any equation.
y = -4x
y = -4(1)
y = -4
