There is one solution:
use elimination method
5x - 7y = 12
5y - 2x = -7 ---> change equation around
5x - 7y = 12
-2x + 5y = -7
2 x ( 5x - 7y) = 2 x (12) multiply both sides by 2
5 x (-2x +5y) = 5 x (-7)
this give you
10x - 14y =24
-10x+25y = -35 add down
-----------------------------
11y = - 11 x is eliminated to find y value
y = -1 input to one of the original equations
5(-1) - 2x = -7
-5 - 2x = -7
+5 +5 add 5 to both sides
----------------------------
-2x = -2
x = 1
your coordinates for when they intersect is at (1, -1)
one solution
Answer:
$1.89
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 8p+3f=$10.39
2) 5p+4f=$10.51
where p represents pencil & f represents folder.
multiply the first equation by 5 and the second equation by 8.
40p+15f=$51.95
40p+32f=$84.08
Subtract
17f=$32.13
f=$32.13/17 =$1.89
M = -3
n = 8
plug in your variables.
-3 - (2 x -8)
two negatives make a positive, so it would be positive 16
-3 + 16
= 13
Step-by-step explanation:
There are infinitely many such integers.
x - y = -6 <em>add y to both sides</em>
x = -6 + y → x = y - 6
1. Choose any y value.
2. Substitute for the equation.
3. Calculate the value of x.
Examples:
for y = 0 → x = 0 - 6 = -6
check: -6 - 0 = -6
for y = 10 → x = 10 - 6 = 4
check: 4 - 10 = -6
for y = -9 → x = -9 - 6 = -15
check: -15 - (-9) = -15 + 9 = -6
Josh did not follow the order of operations , he should have done 8x divided by 2 first but instead he did 4x- 8x
The correct solution...
4x-8x / 2
4x -4x
0
The solution should be zero (0)
Hope it helps!
