Simultaneous equations 2x+3y=13 4x-y=-2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rufina [12.5K]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(0.5, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = 13 → (1)

4x - y = - 2 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by 3 and adding to (1) will eliminate the term in y

12x - 3y = - 6 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

14x = 7 ( divide both sides by 14 )

x = 0.5

Substitute x = 0.5 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (1)

2(0.5) + 3y = 13

1 + 3y = 13 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

3y = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 4

Solution is (0.5, 4 )

1.How many combinations are possible from the letters HOLIDAY if the letters are taken?
Lesechka [4]

Using the combination formula, it is found that:

1. A. 7 combinations are possible.

B. 21 combinations are possible.

C. 1 combination is possible.

2. There are 245 ways to group them.

<h3>What is the combination formula?</h3>

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

Exercise 1, item a:

One letter from a set of 7, hence:

C_{7,1} = \frac{7!}{1!6!} = 7

7 combinations are possible.

Item b:

Two letters from a set of 7, hence:

C_{7,2} = \frac{7!}{2!5!} = 21

21 combinations are possible.

Item c:

7 letters from a set of 7, hence:

C_{7,7} = \frac{7!}{0!7!} = 1

1 combination is possible.

Question 2:

Three singers are taken from a set of 7, and four dances from a set of 10, hence:

T = C_{7,3}C_{10,4} = \frac{7!}{3!4!} \times \frac{10!}{4!6!} = 245

There are 245 ways to group them.
