The part of mathematics in which letters and other general symbols are used to represent numbers and quantities in formulae and equations.
Thickness of the plate before polishing = 2.342
Thickness of the plate after polishing. = 2.087
How much was removed = 2.342- 2.087 = 0.255
Hence , the answer 0.255 which is option B
First, you need to isolate the x in the first equation.
-x + 5y = 1
Subtract 5y from both sides, leaving you with the following equation:
-x = 1-5y
Because you are trying to solve for positive x and not negative x, you need to make x positive. Therefore you divide both sides by -1. In Algebra, when 1 is the coefficient of the variable, it is not shown, but it is still there. The new equation will be the following: x = 5y-1
Now you just need to substitute the x within the second equation for the x equation we just solved for.
Therefore, the right answer will be 2(5y-1)+4y= -4. Now, all you have to do is choose the answer that states exactly that, which is the first choice.
