You add two equations together to eliminate a variable. This particular problem is nice, because it's already setup to eliminate X.
3x - 4y = 9
<span>-3x + 2y = 9
</span>
When we add these two together, 3x - 3x cancels each other out, leaving us with 0x, or nothing.
We continue with -4y + 2y (leaves us with -2y) and 9+9 (18).
-2y = 18
18/-2 = -9.
Now we have y = -9, and we can go back into the problems to solve for x.
<span>3x - 4(-9) = 9
</span>
3x + 36 = 9.
3x = -27
x = -9.
Confirm with the final equation:
-3(-9) + 2(-9) = 9
27 - 18 = 9
9 = 9 --- Confirmed.
Answer:
x= 2
Step-by-step explanation:
so expand the left side of the equation
9x+9= 25+x
and then group like terms( subtract 9 from both sides and also do same with x.
9x-x= 25-9
8x= 16
divide by 8 on both sides.
x=2
If treasure is midway of two points then treasures point is(x1+x2/2,y1+y2/2)
16+3/2, 21+2/2
Else any point shown byyour options is treasure's point
Alright.
So, we have 2185 student in Rose.
Lily School has 307 more students than Rose, so Lily has,
2185 + 307 = 2492 Students in Lily School.
Since question a. is asking you to round off to the nearest ten, your answer to part a is 2490.
For part b. add 2185 and 2490.
2185 + 2490 = 4675 students.
The questions want you to round to the nearest hundredth, so,
4700 is the answer to part b.
