Alright, lets get started.
Justin is asked to solve the linear equations using elimination method.
By using elimination method means we have to multiply some numbers in our given equations in such a way that the co-efficient of x or y become same in both equations so that we could add or subtract them to cancel one of the term either x or y.
So, given equations are :


See we have 5x in first equation and -20x in second equation.
So, we try to change 5x into 20 x by multiplying it with 4, both of the equations will have 20 x in common
Lets multiply 4 in first equation


Now both equations could be added and 20 x will be cancelled out and we could easily find the value of y then solve for x.
So, Justin should try to change 5 so that it will be cancels, so option B : Answer
Hope it will help :)
Answer:
(2.4, -1.2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by moving the x and the y to the same side and moving the number across the equal sign in both equations. We should now have y-0.45x=-2.3 and 2y+4.2x=7.8. We can use the elimination method by multiplying the first equation by -2 to get -2y+0.9x=4.6 and 2y+4.2x=7.8. From there, add the two equations together, eliminating y (-2+2=0). We now have 5.1x=12.4; divide both sides by 5.1 to get x=2.4. Then, in any of the two equations, let's use y-0.45x=-2.3, substitute x with 2.4. Now we have y-1.08=-2.3. Add 1.08 to both sides to get y=-1.22; round that to the nearest tenth to get -1.2.
Answer:
7/2 = 35/10
3/5 = 6/10
Step-by-step explanation:
To get a common denominator of 10, simply multiply the current denominator by any number to equal 10. The first fraction has a denominator of 2. If we divide 10 by 2, we get the answer 5. This means 2 can be multiplied by 5 to get a denominator of 10. However, what we do to the denominator we must also do to the numerator (multiply by 5).
7/2
7 × 5 / 2 × 5
35/10
3/5
3 × 2 / 5 × 2
6/10
brainliest pls
Consider the intergers as, x and x+1
x+(x+1)=31
2x+1=31
2x=30
x=15
So, (x+1)=(15+1)=16 would be larger number.
