Mathematics

Karolina [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, x, represent the value of Dave's markers. You then make the equation (5x+x=18) because both markers combined is 18 and Sheila has 5 times the markers of Dave so her value would represent 5x. Solving the equation would get you x=3 BUT THAT IS THE VALUE OF DAVE'S MARKERS! The question asks for Sheila's with is 5*3. So the answer is 15 markers.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

(x, y) = (7, -5)

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

It generally works well to follow directions.

The matrix of coefficients is ...

\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&4\\-5&3\end{array}\right]

Its inverse is the transpose of the cofactor matrix, divided by the determinant. That is ...

\dfrac{1}{26}\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4\\5&2\end{array}\right]

So the solution is the product of this and the vector of constants [-6, -50]. That product is ...

... x = (3·(-6) +(-4)(-50))/26 = 7

... y = (5·(-6) +2·(-50))/26 = -5

The solution using inverse matrices is ...

... (x, y) = (7, -5)
