Solving systems equations by elimination

Mathematics

I won't answer them all for you (don't want to cheat - need to learn something).
But for the first one given:

<span>-2x-9y=-25
-4x-9y=-23

you set up either x or y (which ever one you want to eliminate) so that one of them cancels.
So this one is easy - you just have to multiply an entire row by negative (doesn't matter which one) - so that the y's will be + and - 

Since they're both 9 and they're subracting NOW - you can eliminate the y value. Now add/subtract the x's. So it'd be -2 or 2 depending on how you eliminated y. Then add the number outside of the = sign. Now just solve for x. After that plug in whatever you got for x into both of the rows. Then find the y value.

Hopefully this wasn't confusing -- reply if it is and I will try to simplify. I can give you contact if you need help with the rest 

Good luck!</span>

If s and t are integers greater than 1 and each is a factor of the integer n, which of the following must be a factor of n st ?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

A) None

Step-by-step explanation:

1) s^t shoudnt neccesarily be a factor of nst, for example, if s = 3, t = 4, and n = 12, then both s and t are factors of n, but 3^4 = 81 is not a factor of nst = 144.

2) (st)^2 shoudnt neccesarily be a factor of nst. Let s be 4, let t be 6, and let n be 12. Then n is a factor of both s and t, but (st)^2 = 24^2 is not a factor of nst = 12*24. In fact, it is a greater number.

3) Again, s+t isnt necessarily a factor of nst, let s be 2 and t be 3. Then both s and t are factor of n = 12. However 5 = s+t is not a factor of nst = 72.

So, neither of the three options is guaranteed to be a factor of nst. In fact, for s = 4, t = 6, and n = 12, none of the three options are valid.

A monk crossbred plants which can have purple or white flowers and obtained 511 plants with white flowers and 337 plants with pu
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

For purple;

P(p) = 337/848 = 0.40

For white;

P(w) = 511/848 = 0.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Number of plants with purple flowers P = 337

Number of plants with white flowers W = 511

Total T = 337 + 511 = 848

For purple;

the empirical Probability that a plant had purple flowers P(p) is

P(p) = Number of plants with purple flowers/total number of plants

P(p) = P/T

Substituting the values, we have;

P(p) = 337/848 = 0.40

For white;

the empirical Probability that a plant had white flowers P(w) is

P(w) = Number of plants with white flowers/total number of plants

P(w) = W/T

Substituting the values, we have;

P(w) = 511/848 = 0.60
