Multiply each equation by a number that produces opposite

Mathematics
1 answer:
OLga [1]3 years ago
6 0

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).

Whats the answer to this problem 9x+10=2001-X
Vilka [71]

Answer: x=1991/10

Step-by-step explanation: Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

9x+10=2001−x

9x+10=2001+−x

9x+10=−x+2001

Step 2: Add x to both sides.

9x+10+x=−x+2001+x

10x+10=2001

Step 3: Subtract 10 from both sides.

10x+10−10=2001−10

10x=1991

Step 4: Divide both sides by 10.

10x

10

=

1991
