Answer:
<h2>The easiest to solve for is x in the first equation</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equation, x + 4 y = 14. and 3 x + 2 y = 12, to solve for x, we can use the elimination method of solving simultaneous equation. We need to get y first.
x + 4 y = 14............ 1 * 3
3 x + 2 y = 12 ............ 2 * 1
Lets eliminate x first. Multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract from equation 2.
3x + 12 y = 42.
3 x + 2 y = 12
Taking the diffrence;
12-2y =42 - 12
10y = 30
y = 3
From equation 1, x = 14-4y
x = 14-4(3)
x = 14-12
x = 2
It can be seen that the easiest way to get the value of x is by using the first equation and we are able to do the substitute easily <u>because the variable x has no coefficient in equation 1 compare to equation 2 </u>as such it will be easier to make the substitute for x in the first equation.
Answer: 8 weeks
explanation: 125 + 15x = 245
You then have to subtract 125 from both sides so we can isolate our variable which will give us 15x = 120 . Divide 15 from both sides : 15x/15 = 120/15 which will give us x = 8.
Answer:
x = 5/7 -> 0.714285 which to the nearest tenth would be 0.7
Step-by-step explanation:
is it x*2 or x^2?
If it were x to the power of two, then the answer would be about x1 = 0.594875 and x2 = 8.40512
Step-by-step explanation:
if 5s=3h
34s=?
we will criss cross and
