Answer:
a) x = 12 y = 9
b) x = -2 y = -4
c) x = 6 y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Equation 1: 6x - 7y = 9
Equation 2: 3x + 2y = 54
Multiply Equation 2 by 2:
⇒ 6x + 4y = 108
Subtract equations:
6x + 4y = 108
<u>- 6x - 7y = 9 </u>
11y = 99
Divide both sides by 11:
⇒ y = 9
Substitute found value of y into Equation 1 and solve for x:
⇒ 6x - 7(9) = 9
⇒ 6x - 63 = 9
⇒ 6x = 72
⇒ x = 12
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b)
Equation 1: 4x - 5y = 12
Equation 2: 2x - 3y = 8
Multiply Equation 2 by 2:
⇒ 4x - 6y = 16
Subtract equations:
4x - 6y = 16
<u>- 4x - 5y = 12 </u>
-y = 4
Divide both sides by -1:
⇒ y = -4
Substitute found value of y into Equation 1 and solve for x:
⇒ 4x - 5(-4) = 12
⇒ 4x + 20 = 12
⇒ 4x = -8
⇒ x = -2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
c)
Equation 1: 4x - 2y = 28
Equation 2: 3x + 3y = 12
Multiply Equation 1 by 3:
⇒ 12x - 6y = 84
Multiply Equation 2 by 4:
⇒ 12x + 12y = 48
Subtract equations:
12x - 6y = 84
<u>- 12x + 12y = 48 </u>
-18y = 36
Divide both sides by -18:
⇒ y = -2
Substitute found value of y into Equation 1 and solve for x:
⇒ 4x - 2(-2) = 28
⇒ 4x + 4 = 28
⇒ 4x = 24
⇒ x = 6
Answer:
(x-1)(x-9)
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x+1)² = 7; expand: 25x² + 10x +1 = 7 or 25x² + 10x -6 = 0
Solve this quadratic for x:
x = [-b + √(b² - 4ac)]/2a and x = [-b - √(b² - 4ac)]/2a
Plug the values and you'll find :
x = (- √7 - 1)/5 (answer C)
x = (+√7 -1)/5 (answer E)
Answer:
6.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Each jar has 12/7 cups of blueberries.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many cups of blueberries per jar, we take the number of cups of blue berries and divide by the number of jars
12 cups/7 jars
12/7 cups of blueberries per jar
Each jar has 12/7 cups of blueberries.
