Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
5a - 10b = 45
<em>b</em> = 3
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>
- Substitute in <em>b</em> [Equation]: 5a - 10(3) = 45
- Multiply: 5a - 30 = 45
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 30 on both sides: 5a = 75
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 5 on both sides: a = 15
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I think option 4 is the correct answer
Solve simultaneously.
4x - y = 8
6x + y = 2
Multiply top equation by 6, and bottom equation by 4, to eliminate x, so that we can find y.
~
24x - 6y = 48
24x - 4y = 8
Subtract top from bottom to form one equation.
~
-2y = 40
Therefore y is 20.
Put y back in to an equation, such as 4x - y = 8.
~
4x - 20 = 8
4x = 28
x = 7
It is a part of slope form ( intercept
3 / (1/8) = 3 × (8/1) = 24
