Answer:

w= -9/8

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/3w -3/5 = 1/5w

+1/3w            +1/3 w

-3/5=1/5w+1/3w

Make common denominators to combine like terms of the right

-3/5=1/5w+1/3w

         *3       *5

-3/5=3/15w+5/15w

-3/5=8/15w

multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 8/15 which is 15/8

-3/5*15/8=8/15w*15/8

\frac{-3}{5}*\frac{15}{8} ----> cross reduce 5 in the denominator becomes 1 and 15 in the numerator becomes 3

\frac{-3}{1}*\frac{3}{8} -----> now multiply across

w= -9/8

Answer: -6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/2w-3/5=1/5w

-w/2 - 3/5=w/5

Collect like terms

w/5 + w/2=-3/5

(2w + 5w)/10=-3/5

7w/10=-3/5

Cross multiply

7w x 5=-3 x 10

35w=-30

Divide both sides by 35

35w/35=-30/35

w=-6/7

For what values of h and k does the linear system have infinitely many solutions? 2x1 + 5x2 = −1 hx1 + kx2 = 7
Kruka [31]

Answer:

The values of h and k for a linear system with infinitely many solutions are -2 and 5, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2\cdot x_{1}+5\cdot x_{2} = -1\cdot h\cdot x_{1} + k\cdot x_{2} = 7, if this linear system has infinitely many solutions, then the following conditions must be met:

-1\cdot h = 2 and k = 5.

h = -2 and k = 5

The values of h and k for a linear system with infinitely many solutions are -2 and 5, respectively.
