Answer:

John has 18 pieces of paper.

Larry has 32 pieces of paper.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l be how many pieces of paper Larry has and j be how many pieces of paper John has.

We get:

j+14=l

j+l=50

j+j+14=50\\\\2j+14=50

<em>Subtract 14 from both sides</em>

2j=36

<em>Divide both sides by 2</em>

j=18

John has 18 pieces of paper.

j+14=l\\\\18+14=l\\\\l=32

Larry has 32 pieces of paper.

Which of these strategies would eliminate a variable in the system of equations?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

<em>Multiply the bottom equation by -3/2 then add the equations. </em>

<em>Multiply the top equation by-3. then add the equations </em>

<em> </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation

2x- 6y=6  ... 1

6x - 4y = 2 ... 2

To eliminate a variable, we have to make the coefficient of one of the variable to be the same.

Multiply equastion 1 by -3

-6x+18y= -18  

6x - 4y = 2

Add the result:

-6x + 6x + 18y-4y = -18+2

18y-4y = -18+2

14y = -18

y = -9/7

Another way is to Multiply the bottom equation by -3/2 then add the equations.

Multiplying equation 2 by -3/2 will give;

6x(-3/2) - 4y(-3/2) = 2(-3/2)

-9x + 6y = -3

Add to equation 1;

2x- 6y=6

-9x + 2x + 0 = -3+6

-7x = 3

x = -3/7

Hence the correct two options are;

<em>Multiply the bottom equation by -3/2 then add the equations. </em>

<em>Multiply the top equation by-3. then add the equations </em>

<em> </em>

Using the slope​ formula, find the slope of the line through the points (0,0) and (3,6).
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

y=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

From (0,0) to (3,6), it is 3 units to the left and 6 units left, divide that so you can have 1 unit to the left and 2 units up.  Therefore, the answer is y = 2x.
