The point of elimination is to have one variable so example
3x + 2y = 4
7X + 3y = 5
1) Try to find a way to have one variable
7(3x + 2y = 4) ----> 21x + 14y = 28
-3(7x+ 3y = 5) -----> -21x -9y = -15
2) add
0 + 5y = 13
3) solve for the last variable
5y = 13
y = 13/5 = 2 3/5 = 2.8
4) Subsitute the variable to get the other one
3x + 2(2.8) = 4
3x + 5.6 = 4
3x = -1.6
x = 0.533333333 (continue)
The intersection would be 0.53 with a line above the 3 and 2.8. (0.5333 , 2.8)
Hope you understand!!
Hello there! The answer is the first option, 31/55.
To solve this, we don't even need to do any math. Note that fractions with the same numerator and denominator will be equal to 1.
Knowing this and looking at our second and fourth options, 55/55 x 111 and 31/31 x 111, these problems are the same as 1 x 111, which results in 111, which is not less than, leaving us with the third and first options.
The third option is 55/31, meaning we have more than a whole, so we are multiplying by a number greater than 1, making our answer over 111 and this option not correct.
This leaves the first option as your answer!
Answer:
The length of the model is 21 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
The scale factor
That means
1 unit in the model represent 12 units in the actual
1 inch in the model represent 12 inches in the actual
Remember that
so
1 inch in the model represent 1 ft in the actual
The scale factor is
therefore
21 ft in the actual represent 21 inches in the model
