Answer: x = 2 and y = 0

Explanation:

-9x + 10y = -18
3x - y = 6
————————
-9x + 10y = -18
10(3x - y = 6)
————————
-9x + 10y = -18
30x - 10y = 60
————————-
21x = 42
x = 42/21
x = 2

Find y:

3x - y = 6
3(2) - y = 6
6 - y = 6
-y = 6 - 6
-y = 0
y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey, there!!

To solve this type of equation it is very easy from elimination method,

  • Firsty, you try to search if there is opposite sign of same variables or not in both equation.
  • Then find their LCM to make easy to cancel.
  • And thirdly add or subtract the terms to get value of one variable.
  • Then substitute the value of one variable to get value of another variable.

Here, the given equation are,

-9x+10y = -18..........(i)

3x-y = 6....................(ii)

Let's take LCM to solve for x.

To solve for "x" we must cancel "y".

LCM= 10 { lcm of 1 and 10 is 1}

So, let's multiply equation (ii) by 10 and add them.

Then,

-9x + 10y = -18

<u>3</u><u>0</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>0</u><u>y</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>6</u><u>0</u>

21x = 42 { as +10y and -10y gets cancelled}

x =  \frac{42}{21}

Therefore, x= 2.

Substituting the value of x in equation (i)

-9x + 10y = -18

-9 × 2 +10y = -18

-18 + 10y = -18

or, 10y = -18 +18

Therefore, y= 0.

So, the value of x is 2 and y is 0.

In the inequality 1/ 2 x - 6 &gt; 10, x represents Todd's age. Which phrase most accurately describes Todd's age? A) Todd is old
Tom [10]

Answer:

Option A) Todd is older than 32

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

\frac{1}{2}x-6>10

Solve for x

Adds 6 both sides

\frac{1}{2}x>10+6\\\\\frac{1}{2}x>16

Multiply by 2 both sides

x>32

so

Todd's age is greater than 32

therefore

Todd is older than 32
