Solve the systems by the addition method: {x-2y = -4 2x + y = 7

Mathematics
1 answer:
Klio2033 [76]4 years ago

Answer:

(2, 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x - 2y = - 4 → (1)

2x + y = 7 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

4x + 2y = 14 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y, that is

5x = 10 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (2)

2(2) + y = 7

4 + y = 7 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

y = 3

Solution is (2, 3 )

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

y = 1.33

Step-by-step explanation:

What you could do is :

x-1x = 2y + 1x-1x + y = 4

get rid of the x

>>> 2y + y = 4

then combine the like terms or y:

2y + y

>>> 3y = 4

finally: divide 4/3

3y/3= 4/3

>>> y = 1.33

Hope it Helps!

Which expression can you simplify by combining like terms?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

6 {d}^{2} + 5cd - 3dc + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

b/c we can substructure 5cd and 3dc b/c it doesn't matter if the place of cd and dc change. what I mean if 5 ×3=15 and it is the same with 3×5=15 both of the product are the same but, if it is - and ÷ it wil be wrong for example 5-3=2 but 3-5= -2

if is helpful ❤❤

The length of a rectangle is 5 inches more than its vedth. The area of the rectangle is equal to
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

  • The width = x = 14
  • The length = x+5 = 14+5 = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  l  = length,  w = width,  A = area =  l×w , and  P  = perimeter =  2(l+w)

Let 'x' be the width

As the length 'l' of a rectangle is 5 inches more than its width.

so the length will be = x+5

As the Area of the rectangle is equal to  2 inches more than 4 times the perimeter.

A = 4P + 2

so the equation becomes

l × w = 4×2(l+w)+2

substituting w=x, l = x+5,

(x+5)x = 8(x+5+x)+2

x²+5x = 8(5+2x)+2

x²+5x = 40+16x+2

x²+5x = 16x+42

x²+5x-16x-42 =0

x²-11x-42=0

x^2-11x=42

\mathrm{Add\:}a^2=\left(-\frac{11}{2}\right)^2\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}

x^2-11x+\left(-\frac{11}{2}\right)^2=42+\left(-\frac{11}{2}\right)^2

x^2-11x+\left(-\frac{11}{2}\right)^2=\frac{289}{4}

\left(x-\frac{11}{2}\right)^2=\frac{289}{4}

\mathrm{For\:}f^2\left(x\right)=a\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}f\left(x\right)=\sqrt{a},\:-\sqrt{a}

solving

x-\frac{11}{2}=\sqrt{\frac{289}{4}}

x-\frac{11}{2}=\frac{\sqrt{289}}{\sqrt{4}}

x-\frac{11}{2}=\frac{\sqrt{289}}{2}

x-\frac{11}{2}=\frac{17}{2}

x-\frac{11}{2}+\frac{11}{2}=\frac{17}{2}+\frac{11}{2}

x=14

similarly solving

x-\frac{11}{2}=-\sqrt{\frac{289}{4}}

x-\frac{11}{2}=-\frac{17}{2}

x-\frac{11}{2}+\frac{11}{2}=-\frac{17}{2}+\frac{11}{2}

x=-3

so

x = 14, or x = -3

As the width 'x' can not be negative.

so x = 14

Thus,

  • The width = x = 14
  • The length = x+5 = 14+5 = 19
