First of all, 'simultaneous' equations means more than one equation. 
You have a set of them, with as many equations as there are variables
in them.

Here you wrote  ' 5a + 2b = 14 '.

You can't do anything with this single equation, except maybe graph it
and get a straight line.  If you want to find the values of 'a' and 'b', you
need another equation with 'a' and 'b' in it, and the two equations together
are called 'simultaneous' because they're both true at the same time.

If you graphed both of them, you would find that each equation makes a
different straight line.  The lines cross at one point, and the (a,b) at that
point is the solution of the simultaneous equations. But there are other
ways to solve the pair of equations without graphing them. Those are
the ways to 'do' them that were probably being discussed in class. 

If you post a pair of simultaneous equations here on the site, somebody
is sure to solve it for you.  And if you get really lucky, they may even explain
how they did it.

You win an online auction for a toy. Your winning bid of $35 is 70% of your maximum bid. How much more were you willing to pay f
luda_lava [24]
35 = 70%

If you divide 35 by 7, you will find what 10% of your maximum bid is.
35/7 = 5
5 = 10%

Multiply your value of 10% by 10 to get 100%.
5*10 = 50

Your maximum bid would be $50. You actually spend $35. To find the amount more you were willing to pay, subtract the two values.
$50-$35 = $15

Answer: You were willing to pay 15 more dollars than you did.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 99 ft, and the length is twice the width. what are its dimensions?
Bas_tet [7]

The dimension of the length and width of the rectangle with the given perimeter are 33ft and 16.5ft respectively.

<h3>What are the dimensions of the rectangle?</h3>

Perimeter of rectangle is expressed as;

P = 2( l + w )

Given that;

  • Perimeter P = 99ft
  • Let width w = x
  • Length l = 2x

We substitute into the formular above.

P = 2( l + w )

99ft = 2( x + 2x )

99ft = 2x + 4x

99ft = 6x

x = 99ft/6

x = 16.5ft

Width = x = 16.5ft

Length = 2x = 2( 16.5ft ) = 33ft

Therefore, the dimension of the length and width of the rectangle with the given perimeter are 33ft and 16.5ft respectively.
