Multiply each equation by a number that produces opposite

Mathematics
1 answer:
OLga [1]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We could multiply the first equation by -3 and, separately, multiply the second equation by 4.  The result would be:

-12x - 15y = -21

12x  - 8y = -48

the x terms now cancel.  The result is:

- 15y = -21

- 8y = -48

----------------

-23y = -69, or y = 3.  If y = 3, then 3x - 2y = -12 becomes:

3x - 2(3) = -12, or

3x - 6 = -12, or    3x = -6, and so x = -2.

The solution is (-2, 3).

Number three is D and number 4 is also D.

Explanation for number three:

When you divide 12 by 3, you get 4. This gives us the number we need to multiply 10 by to get our answer. 10 x 4 = 40

Explanation for number 4:

In the last question, the first step to getting to the answer was to divide the first two numbers. This is no different. When you divide 32.5 by 5, you get 6.5. Then you multiply 10 and 6.5, which equals 65.

Which situation can be represented by the<br> inequality 4x − 25 &lt; 125?
GaryK [48]
First add 25 to both sides of the inequality.
You get 4x < 150
Now divide both sides by 4.
You get x < 37.5
So x can be anything less than 37.5,  such as 36,  35 or 34.
