How do you do elimination in systems of equations?

VMariaS [17]3 years ago

Well, for solving system of equations, we can use either substitution where we plug one equation into the other, or elimination where we combine the equations.


- Using elimination, you would to eliminate one variable from both equations, so you automatically would get one equation with one variable!

Paha777 [63]
Find rates of change until you find a constant.

dy/dx=1,2,3,4,5,6

d2y/dx2=1,1,1,1,1  

So the acceleration, d2y/d2x, is constant.  This means that this is a quadratic sequence of the form a(n)=an^2+bn+c.  So we can set up a system of equations to solve for the values of a,b, and c.  Using the first three points, (1,1), (2,2), and (3,4) we have:

9a+3b+c=4, 4a+2b+c=2, and a+b+c=1  getting the differences...

5a+b=2 and 3a+b=1  and getting this difference...

2a=1, so a=1/2 making 5a+b=2 become:

2.5+b=2, so b=-1/2, making a+b+c=1 become:

1/2-1/2+c=1, so c=1  so the rule is:

a(n)=0.5x^2-0.5x+1  or if you prefer to not have decimals

a(n)=(x^2-x+2)/2

Find the solution to the system of equations. You can use the interactive graph below to find the solution. y=-4x-3 y=-2x+1 x= y
Mama L [17]

Answer:

(-2, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume that your system is

y = -4x - 3

y = -2x + 1

Multiplying the second equation by -2 results in

 y = -4x - 3

-2y = 4x - 2

combining these two equations eliminates x temporarily:

-y = -5, so that y must be 5.

Substituting 5 for y in the second equation, we get:

5 = -2x + 1, or

4 = -2x, which results in x = -2

and so the solution is (-2, 5)

In the year 2005 , a total of 750 fish were introduced into a manmade lake . The fish population was expected to grow at a rate
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The fish population will be in 2050 = 27,123

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In 2005, the total number of fish were introduced (fish population), PV = 750

The growth rate, i = 8.3% = 0.083

The difference between 2050 and 2005 is (2050 - 2005), n = 45 years

We need to solve this problem with the help of future value of compounding. We know, FV = PV (1+i)^n, where, PV = present value, i = interest rate, n = period.

Therefore, the fish population will be in 2050 = 750 x (1 + 0.083)^45

The fish population will be in 2050 = 27,123.26

2050 fish population = 27,123 (Nearest to whole number).
