2x + 3y = 17<br> 5x + 6y = 32<br><br> Usibg method if elimination
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Solution (-2, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 17      (1)

5x + 6y = 32    (2)

Using elimination method

Multiply (-2) to the equation (1)

-4x - 6y = -34  

Now you have 2 new equations

-4x - 6y = -34

5x + 6y = 32

----------------------------Add

x = -2

Substitute x = -2 into 2x + 3y = 17

2(-2) + 3y = 17

- 4 + 3y = 17

3y = 21

 y = 7

Solution (-2, 7)

What is the goal in solving an equation?
Lelechka [254]

Your answer is, get the variable by itself.

The goal in solving an equation is to get the variable by itself on one side of the equation and a number on the other side of the equation. To isolate the variable, we must reverse the operations acting on the variable. We do this by performing the inverse of each operation on both sides of the equation.

<h3><u>What is an equation?</u></h3>

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =

<h3><u>3 types of equations</u></h3>
  • slope-intercept form

10p - (3p - 4) = 4(p + 1) + 9
andrezito [222]

Answer:

p = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute parenthesis on both sides of the equation

10p - 3p + 4 = 4p + 4 + 9 ( simplify both sides )

7p + 4 = 4p + 13 ( subtract 4p from both sides )

3p + 4 = 13 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

3p = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

p = 3
