Solve the linear equation 31x + 29y = 33 29x + 31y = 27

Mathematics

Temka [501]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 2

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the coefficient of x the same

Multiply the first equation by 29

31x + 29y = 33 becomes

899x + 841y = 957

Multiply the second equation by 31

29x + 31y = 27 becomes

899x + 961y = 837

Subtract the equations

(899x + 841y) - (899x + 961y) = 957 - 837

(899x - 899x) + (841y - 961y) = 120

841y - 961y = 120

-120y = 120

y = 120/-120 = -1

Substitute the value of y into both equations to find the value of x and check its right.

31x + 29y = 33

31x + 29(-1) = 33

31x - 29 = 33

31x = 33 + 29

31x = 62

x = 62/31 = 2

29x + 31y = 27

29x + 31(-1) = 27

29x - 31 = 27

29x = 27 + 31

29x = 58

x = 58/29 = 2

What is the diameter of a circle with a circumference of 11.27 pi ft
KatRina [158]
Circumference of circle = 11.27π ft
so,
C = 2πr
or, 11.27π = 2πr
or, 11.27π/2π = r
so, r = 5.635 ft
now,
diameter = 2r
= 2 x 5.635
= 11.27 ft

What is 1,766,655 rounded to the nearest hundred
Vesnalui [34]
655 rounded to the nearest hundred would be 700, so that could be an answer but some teachers say that you still have to keep the other digits. So it could be 700 or 1,766,700
