Elimination_4x_2y=14 _10x+7y=_24

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The answer is $x=-\frac{50}{8}$ and $y=\frac{11}{2}.$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-4x-2y=14

-10x+7y=-24

Now, to solve it by elimination:

$-4x-2y=14$ ......(1)

$-10x+7y=-24$ ......(2)

So, we multiply the equation (1) by 7 we get:

$-28x-14y=98$

And, we multiply the equation (2) by 2 we get:

$-20x+14y=-48$

Now, adding both the new equations:

$-28x-14y+(-20x+14y)=98+(-48)$

$-28x-14y-20x+14y=98-48$

$-28x-20x-14y+14y=50$

$-8x=50$

Dividing both the sides by -8 we get:

$x=-\frac{50}{8}$

Now, putting the value of $x$ in equation (1):

$-4x-2y=14$

$-4(-\frac{50}{8})-2y=14$

$\frac{200}{8} -2y=14$

$25-2y=14$

Subtracting both sides by 25 we get:

$-2y=-11$

Dividing both sides by -2 we get:

$y=\frac{11}{2}$

Therefore, the answer is $x=-\frac{50}{8}$ and $y=\frac{11}{2}.$

A boat has a speed of 15 mph in still water. It travels downstream from Greentown to Glenavon in g hours. It then goes back upst

Lerok [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find two things-- the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the current. Each of these things will be represented by a different variable:

B = speed of the boat in still water

C = speed of the current

Since we have two variables, we will need to find a system of two equations to solve.

How do we find the two equations we need?

Rate problems are based on the relationship Distance = (Rate)(Time).

Fill in the chart with your data (chart attached)

The resulting speed of the boat (traveling upstream) is B-C miles per hour. On the other hand, if the boat is traveling downstream, the current will be pushing the boat faster, and the boat's speed will increase by C miles per hour. The resulting speed of the boat (traveling downstream) is B+C miles per hour. Put this info in the second column in the chart. Now plug it into a formula! Distance=(Rate)(Time) Now solve using the systems of equations!
