Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The four steps of linear combination method are

1) Rearrange like terms such that they are in the same column.

2) The next step is to decide on which variable you want to eliminate and multiply each row with suitable numbers that would make the coefficient of the variable to be equal and opposite.

3) Add both rows and solve for the other unknown variable.

4) substitute the known variable into any of the equations and solve for the other variable.

4x + 2y = 5

−4x − 5y = 7

We would eliminate x by adding both equations. It becomes

- 3y = 12

y = 12/- 3 = - 4

Substituting y = - 4 into the first equation, it becomes

4x + 2 × - 4 = 5

4x - 8 = 5

4x = 5 + 8 = 13

x = 13/4 = 3.25

Find all solutions in the interval [0, 2π).
jekas [21]
First you must know that for remarkable angles: cos (0) = 1, cos (π) = - 1, cos (π / 2) = 0, cos (3π / 2) = 0, cos (2π) = 1. Then, by simple substitution in the given formula, you can find the solutions of x. Which for the interval [0, 2π) are: x = π, x = pi divided by two and x = three pi divided by two.Attached solution.

I buy a MP3 player for £40 in a sale where it was 20% off. What was the original price
natta225 [31]
20% off means you paid only 80% of the original price.
0.8x=40
x=40÷0.8=50
so the original price is 50

Jerry has a miniature model of a boat. He knows that the model is 3 3/4 inches wide and 5 1/2 inches long. What is the actual le
mylen [45]

Answer:

22 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Change 15 feet into inches using the conversion

1 foot = 12 inches, thus

15 ft = 15 × 12 = 180 inches

scale factor = 180 ÷ 3.75 = 48

Thus the actual dimensions of the boat are 48 times the model.

actual length = 48 × 5.5 = 264 inches = 264 ÷ 12 = 22 feet
