Solve the system of equations and choose the correct ordered pair.

Phoenix [80]3 years ago

Hello,

To solve this system of equations, we want to add or subtract the equations so that either x or y cancels out.

We can multiply the first equation by -2, so that 5y will become -10y, and then add the equation with the second so -10y and 10y will cancel out.

Multiplying the first equation by -2, we get:
-4x - 10y = -30

Add this to the second equation and we get:
x = 5

So, we have x = 5. However, we should plug it into both equations to solve for y and make sure both answers check out.

Doing this for the first equation, we have:
2(5) + 5y = 15
10 + 5y = 15
Subtract 10 from both sides to get:
5y = 5
Divide by 5 on both sides to get:
y = 1

We will now see if x = 5 and y = 1 works for the second equation. 
5x + 10y = 35
5(5) + 10(1) = 35
35 = 35, checks out

So, x = 5 and y = 1.
Option choice B is correct.

Hope this helps!

How to solve 1+4.x=-5+7.x
Anastasy [175]
1+4.x= -5+7.x
you take the 1 and -5 add them
= -4
then you have the 4.x and the 7.x
the x’s leave them subtract 4 from 7
it’s 3x now
so now you have -4=3x
divide and you will have what x equals

Levart [38]
5/10 is equal to 25/50
I ts because you multiply 5x5 to get 25 and do the same to the denominator so 10x5 is equal to 50 so 25/50 is the answer.

Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The answer is \sqrt{61}

.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula:

d =  \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^{2} + (y_2 - y_1)^{2}  }

.

☆All we need to do is plug in!

d =  \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^{2} + (y_2 - y_1)^{2}  }  \\ \\  d =   \sqrt{( - 1 - 4) ^{2} + ( - 9 - ( - 3))^{2}  }  \\ d =  \sqrt{( - 5)^{2} + ( - 6) ^{2}}  \\ d  =  \sqrt{25 + 36 }  \\  d =  \sqrt{61}

On a weekend trip around California, Sydney left her home in Modesto and drive 75 miles east to Yosemite National Park, then 70
alekssr [168]
75 mi. East, 70 mi. South, 110 mi.West.
Overall, she drove 110-75= 35 mi. West since east & west are opposite directions.
And 70 mi. South.
In a Pythagorean theorem problem, legs are 35 & 70. And hypotenuse is her diagonal distance from where she started
35^2 + 70^2 = c^2
1225 + 4900 = c^2
6125 = c^2
78.3=c
