Answer:
first number(x) = 2 second number(y)= 6
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an example of a simultaneous equation.
First write this word problem as equations, where x is the "first number" that you've mentioned and y is the "second number".
x + 2y = 14 (equation 1)
2x + y = 10 (equation 2)
This is solved using the elimination method.
We need to make one of the coefficients the same - in this case we can make y the same. In order to do this we need to multiply equation 2 by 2, so that y becomes 2y.
2x + y = 10 MULTIPLY BY 2
4x + 2y = 20 (this is now our new equation 2 with the same y coefficient)
Now subtract equation 1 from equation 2.
4x - x + 2y - 2y = 20 - 14 (2y cancels out here)
3x = 6
x = 2
Now we substitute our x value into equation 1 to find the value of y.
2 + 2y = 14
2y = 12
y = 6
Hope this has answered your question.
Answer:
114 is an improper fraction as numerator 11 is greater than 4, the denominator. Step 2: We divide 11 by 4, and get 2 as a quotient and 3 as a remainder which is written as proper fraction 34.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the distance between two points, so the following formula is used.
Where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the points we are finding the distance between.
We are given the points (-2, -1) and (3,2). If we match the corresponding value and variable we see that:
Substitute the values into the formula.
Solve the parentheses.
- -2 -3 = -5
- 2--1 = 2+ 1 = 3
Solve the exponents.
- (-5)²= -5*-5= 25
- (3)²= 3*3=9
Add.
This radical cannot be simplified, so the distance between the two points is <u>√34</u> and <u>choice 3 </u> is correct.
Answer: -3n-2.
Because for the first term, for example, plug in 1, you'll get -3(1)-2=-3-2=-5, which is the first one. Try it with all terms.
