Which ordered pair (a, b) is the solution to the following system of equations?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kamila [148]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  (-13, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is about as easy to try the solutions as it is to find them from scratch.

__

However, we can determine which one it is by adding twice the second equation to the first.

  (-2a +3b) +2(a -4b) = (14) +2(3)

  -5b = 20

  b = -4 . . . . . . matches the first choice

17. What are the three angle measures in the triangle shown below?
lianna [129]

Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

By using triangle sum theorem in the given triangle,

(5x - 7)° + (11x - 4)° + (3x + 1)° = 180°

(5x + 11x + 3x) - (7 + 4 - 1) = 180

19x - 10 = 180

19x = 190

x = 10

Therefore, (3x + 1)° = 30 + 1

                                = 30°

(11x - 4)° = 110 - 4

              = 106°

(5x - 7)° = 43°

Therefore, Option (1) will be the correct option.

last month , he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550 . This month , he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for $532. How much does a
Kazeer [188]
Hello there, my fellow human being!
So, the chicken costs $8 and the duck costs $5, here's why.

Let's say x is the cost of a chicken while y is the cost of a duck.
We can make two linear equations using the information above.
Last month, he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550: 50x + 30y= 550
This month, he sold 44 chicken and 36 ducks for $532: 44x + 36y = 532

50x/10 + 30y/10 = 440/10
44x/4 + 36y/4 = 532/4

5x + 3y = 44
11x + 9y = 133

So, now that we have our answer simplified, we have to use elimination to solve this system of equations. But, first we need to make sure that at least one of our variables is able to be canceled out.
Let's multiply this equation by -3.
(5x + 3y = 44) * -3.

-15x-9y=-165.

11x + 9y = 133
-15x - 9y = -165
______________
-4x/4 = -32/4
x = 8
11x + 9y = 133
11(8) + 9y = 133
88 + 9y = 133
-88 -88
________________
9y/9 = 45/9
y = 5.
