For this case we have a system of two linear equations with two igcognitas, given by:

5v + 4w = 1\\3v-6w = 2

Where v and w are the unknowable variables.

To solve, we perform the following steps:

1st step:

We multiply the first equation by 3:

15v + 12w = 3

2nd step:

We multiply the second equation by -5:

-15v + 30w = -10

3rd step:

We add the equations:

15v + 12w = 3\\-15v + 30w = -10

We have then:

42w = -7

w =-\frac{7}{42}

w =-\frac{1}{6}

Thus, the value of w is -\frac{1}{6}.

4th step:

We substitute w =-\frac{1}{6} in any of the equations:

3v-6w = 2\\3v-6 * (-\frac{1}{6}) = 2

3v + 1 = 2\\3v = 2-1\\3v = 1

v =\frac{1}{3}

So, the value of v is \frac{1}{3}

Answer:

The value of w is -\frac{1}{6}

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, the sum of any two sides must be bigger than the third.

For the first one, 10+20=30 is not greater than 30, so this is not correct.

For B, 122+137 = 259 > 257, 257+137>122  , and 257 + 122 > 137. This works

For C, 8.6 + 2.7 = 11.3 < 12.2, so this does not work

For D, 1/6 + 1/5 = 5/(6*5) + 6/(6*5) = 5/30 + 6/30 = 11/30 < 1/2 = 15/30, so this does not work

Most evenings after dinner Duarte spends 30 minutes playing chess with his dad.
olasank [31]
T= total played
e= # evenings played
m= # minutes played

Total equals number of evenings played multiplied by number of minutes plated per evening.

EQUATION:
t=e * m

EQUATION (if 30 minutes per evening):
t=30e

Example:
3 nights, 30 minutes played

t= 3 * 30
t=90 minutes total played

Hope this helps!  :)
