2x - 7y = 2 and 3x + y = -20 addition/elimination

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mkey [24]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = -6, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-7y = 2

3x + y = -20

We need to cancel out either x or y to solve the equation. I'll cancel out x first

3(2x-7y = 2)

-2(3x+y=-20)

___________

6x-21y = 6

-6x -2y = 40

____________

-23y = 46

y = -2

Plug the value for y in one of the 2 equations to solve for x

2x -7(-2) = 2

2x+14=2

2x = -12

x=-6

Which statement would be true if you evaluate the expression (560x70) ÷10
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

none

Step-by-step explanation:

No choice is correct.

The original expression has 560 x 70, the product of 560 and 70 inside the parentheses.

(560 x 70) ÷ 10 is 10 times smaller than 560 x 70

None of the choices show 560 x 70. They show 560 + 70 and 560 - 70.

Answer: none
