Y-x=15 y-x=5 using elimination

Mathematics
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

To eliminate is to get rid of one of the variables.

You can choose to either add each term in the equations or subtract each term in the equation.

For a variable to be eliminated, there must one pair that have the same constant with it. Each equation already has the same constant with a variable.

Try adding them.

.     y - x = 15

<u>+    y - x = 5</u>

2y - 2x = 20   No variables were eliminated.

Try subtracting.

.     y - x = 15

<u>-     y - x = 5</u>

0y - 0x  = 10   All variables were eliminated.

.         0 = 10     This is false.

This system of equations cannot be solved.

Graphically, these two lines would have the same slope and are parallel. The solution to a system is same as the point of intersection. Parallel lines never meet, never intersect, therefore there is no solution.

You buy a cylindrical container of salt with a diameter of 3.25 inches and a height of 5 inches. Your salt shaker is a cylinder
Sphinxa [80]
First calculate volume of the cylindrical container: Pi * R2 * H; where Pi is 22/7 or 3.147, R is the radius and H is the height of the container.

Vol of the cylindrical container: 3.147 * (3.25/2) * (3.25/2)* 5 = 41.55 inch 3

Volume of the shaker using the above principle:
3.147 * (1/2) * (1/2) * 1.5 = 1.18 inch 3

Number of times it can fill the salt shaker will be the ratio of the volumes:

= Volume of the cylindrical container divided by the volume of the shaker = 41.55 divided by 1.18

Answer is 35 times if rounded in absolute number.

What is m-a = n+p, for a
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

A=m-n-p

Step-by-step explanation:

So solve for a, we have to isolate it on one side, so -a=n+p-m. So a=m-n-p
