What is the solution of the following system of equations? 2x + y = -7 -3x - 2y = 10

Mathematics

pentagon [3]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

the solution is    (-4, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 2.  This produces 4x + 2y = -14.

Now combine this result with the second equation:

4x + 2y = -14

-3x - 2y = 10

------------------

 x          = -4

Subbing -4 for x in the first equation yields 2x - 4 = -7, or 2x = -3.  

Then x = -3/2, and the solution is    (-4, -3)

You need to solve a system of equations. You decide to use the elimination method. Which of these is not allowed? 2x - 3y = 12
suter [353]

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Elimination Method is the method for solving a pair of linear equations which reduces one equation to one that has only a single variable.

If the coefficients of one variable are opposites, you add the equations to eliminate a variable, and then solve.

If the coefficients are not opposites, then we multiply one or both equations by a number to create opposite coefficients, and then add the equations to eliminate a variable and solve.

When multiplying the equation by a coefficient, we multiply both sides of the equation (multiplying both sides of the equation by some nonzero number does not change the solution).

So, option B is not allowed (it is not allowed to multiply only one part of the equation)

ElenaW [278]
<span>Found a similar problem with the given table. 

Elapsed time (Minutes)   0    10   20   30    40    50   60   70   80   90
Rate (gallons / minute)   42   40  38   35    35    32   28    20   19   10

Because the interval is every 10 minutes, we will use 10 and multiply it to each rate and get the sum total.

42*10 + 40*10 + 38*10 + 35*10 + 35*10 + 32*10 + 28*10 + 20*10 + 19*10 + 10*10
420 + 400 + 380 + 350 + 350 + 320 + 280 + 200 + 190 + 100
2,990

There will be a total of 2,990 gallons in the tank after 90 minutes. </span>
