Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve simultaneous equations using substitution method, elimination method or graphical method. But for this purpose, we will be using the elimination method.
3x+4y=8 Equation 1
2x+y=42 Equation 2
Multiply Equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, so as to get the same coefficient for x
2(3x+4y=8)= 6x+8y=16 Equation 3
3(2x+y=42)= 6x+3y=126 Equation 4
Subtract equation 4 from 3, to eliminate x
6x-6x=0
8y-3y= 5y
16-126= -110
We now have 5y=-110
Divide both sides by 5,
y= -110/5
= -22
Substituting for y in equation 2
2x+(-22)= 42
2x= 42+22
2x=64
x= 64/2
= 32
(x, y)
(32, -22)
Answer:
5x=55
Divide both sides by 5 to solve for x
5x/5=55/5
x=11
Answer:
1. sum of term = 465
2. nth term of the AP = 30n - 10
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The sum of all natural number from 1 to 30 can be computed as follows. The first term a = 1 and the common difference d = 1 . Therefore
sum of term = n/2(a + l)
where
a = 1
l = last term = 30
n = number of term
sum of term = 30/2(1 + 30)
sum of term = 15(31)
sum of term = 465
2.The nth term of the sequence can be gotten below. The sequence is 20, 50, 80 ......
The first term which is a is equals to 20. The common difference is 50 - 20 or 80 - 50 = 30. Therefore;
a = 20
d = 30
nth term of an AP = a + (n - 1)d
nth term of an AP = 20 + (n - 1)30
nth term of an AP = 20 + 30n - 30
nth term of the AP = 30n - 10
The nth term formula can be used to find the next term progressively. where n = number of term
The sequence will be 20, 50, 80, 110, 140, 170, 200..............
Answer:
the two numbers are 12 and -29
Step-by-step explanation:
let the two numbers be x and y
let the sum of the two numbers b
x+y = -17 ..................................................... equation 1
let the difference between the two numbers be
x-y = 41 ........................................................................ equation 2
from equation 1
x+y = -17 ..................................................... equation 1
x = -17 - y ............................................................... equation 3
substitute for x in equation 2
x-y = 41 ........................................................................ equation 2
-17-y -y = 41
-17 -2y = 41
-2y = 41 + 17
-2y = 58
divide both sides by -2
-2y/-2 = 58/-2
y = -29
put the value of y = -29 in equation 3
x = -17 - y ............................................................... equation 3
x = -17-(-29)
x =-17 + 29
x = 12
therefore the two numbers are 12 and -29
