In order to use the elimination method, we have to multiply the equation by some number, so that one of the variable has the same coefficient.

For example, multiplying the first equation by 3 and the second by 2 gives the following, equivalent system:

\begin{cases}6x-15y=33\\6x+4y=14\end{cases}

Now, we can subtract the two equations, and we will cancel (eliminate) the x variable:

-19y=19 \iff y=-1

Now that y is known, plug it into one of the equations: for example, if we use the first one we get

2x+5 = 11 \iff 2x = 6 \iff x=3

On an island there are 7 cities. Each two of them connected by a direct road. How many roads are there?
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

21 roads

Step-by-step explanation:

If each two cities are connected by a direct road, to find the number of roads we just need to solve a combination of 7 choose 2, that is, we need to find all pairs of two cities among the 7 cities:

Combination of 7 choose 2 = 7! / (5! * 2!) = 7*6/2 = 21

So there is a total of 21 roads on the island.

2. Brynn borrowed $25,000 at 1% per month from a family friend to start her entrepreneurial venture on December 2, 2011. If she
USPshnik [31]

She paid a simple interest of $3,125.00 on the borrowing of $25,000

What is simple interest?

The simple interest on a loan or an investment can be determined as the principal multiplied by interest multiplied by the number of periods.

This is quite different from compound interest where the interest earned previously would earn interest in the future alongside the principal

I=PRT

I=interest on loan=unknown

P=amount borrowed=$25,000

R=interest rate=1% per month

T=12.5 months( from December 2 2011 to December 1 2012 makes one year and from December 1-16 gives 15 days, which is 0.5 of one month)

I=$25,000*1%*12.5

I=$3,125.00

Find x in this 45°-45°-90° triangle.<br><br><br><br> x =
Bezzdna [24]

Answer: 6 sqrt2

Step-by-step explanation:

Sqrt = square root shorthand.

In a 45-45-90, the legs can be represented as x and the hypotenuse as x root2.

12 = x (sqrt2)

12/sqrt2 = x

Let’s rationalize this by putting the square root on top:

12sqrt2 / 2

Simplify:

6sqrt2

Fred had a garden. The number of flowers in the garden can be determined by the equation: F= 2b, where F is the number of flower
shusha [124]

Answer:

Constant of proportionality = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

F = 2b (given)

This indicates that F is directly proportional to b

That is, F ∞ b

Removing the proportionality sign, F = kb where k is the constant of proportionality.

Comparing this with F = 2b, we have that k = 2
