Solve the system using elimination

Mathematics
1 answer:
Pie4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

(x, y) = (3, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = 9 → (1)

x + 5y = 8 → (2)

multiplying (2) by - 2 then adding to (1) will eliminate the term in x

multiply (2) by - 2

- 2x - 10y = - 16 → (3)

add 1(1) and (3) term by term

(2x - 2x) + (3y - 10y) = (9 - 16)

- 7y = - 7 ( divide both sides by - 7 )

y = 1

Substitute y = 1 in either (1) or (2) and solve for x

(1) : 2x + 3 = 9 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

Solution is (3, 1 )

P=40+2b

A) P(6)=40+12=52ft TRUE

B) P(8)=40+16=56ft TRUE

C) P(10)=40+20=60ft FALSE

D) P(12)=40+24=64ft FALSE

PLEASE HELP DUE NOW!!!<br> WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!
Sav [38]

Answer:

(-5, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

- 9x + 5y = 5 \\  - 5x + 5y =  - 15

- 9x + 5y = 5 \\ 5x - 5y = 15

- 4x = 20

- x = 5

x =  - 5

-5( - 5) + 5y =  - 15

25 + 5y =  - 15

5y = -40

y = -8

PRE-ALGEBRA HELP PLEASE!
Colt1911 [192]

<span><span>PART A) the initial value of the function is 150 at 0 weeks, that means that there are still 150 songs to be downloaded at the beginning.
</span> The rate of change is -30 songs each week, that is because the amount of songs left to be downloaded decrease by 30 each week.</span>

<span><span>PART B:
</span><span> lets use 2 points of the graph p1(0, 150), p2(1, 120)
calculate the slope:
m = (y2- y1)/(x2 - x1) = (120 - 150)/(1 - 0)
m = -30
and now use line equation in form point-slope:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 150 = -30(x - 0)
y = -30x + 150</span></span>
