Subtract the equations straight down. So we'll subtract the x terms together
5x - 5x = 0x = 0
meaning the x terms effectively go away after subtraction
Then we do the y terms together in the same exact order
y-3y = -2y
Then finally the right hand side values
6 - (-5) = 6+5 = 11
All of that work done indicates we have 0x-2y = 11 which is the same as -2y = 11. Divide both sides by -2 and we end up with y = -11/2
This answer isn't listed so I'm thinking there's a typo your teacher made somewhere.
i would say c is the best answer or the 3rd one
All the numbers in the first equation have a common factor of 2. Removing that gives
.. x +4y = 6
making it easy to solve for x
.. x = 6 -4y
My choice would be to solve for x using the first equation.
_____
On second thought, it might actually be easier to solve either equation for 8y. That term then directly substitutes into the other equation (equivalent to adding the two equations).
.. 8y = 3x -11 . . . . . from the second equation
.. 2x +(3x -11) = 12 . . . substituting into the first equation
.. 5x = 23 . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, add 11 (what you would get by adding the equations in the first place)
.. x = 4.6
.. y = (3*4.6 -11)/8 = 0.35
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we have that
The scale drawing is

we know that
Using proportion find out the actual dimensions of the volleyball court
Let
x -----> drawing court lengths in cm
y ----> court lengths in cm
For x=40 cm

For x=80 cm

Find the equation for the proportional relation ship between drawing court lengths x in centimeters and court lengths in y centimeters
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form
or
For x=40 cm, y=900
substitute
