Answer:

Division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = 14 -----------(1)

−4x + 6y = 12---------(2)                       Given

we can divide through the equation  equation (2) by 2

The equation becomes;

-2x + 3y = 6 ----------(3)     Division property of equality

(4x ÷2 = 2x       6y÷2 =  3y            12÷2=6)

2x + 2y = 14 -----------(1)

-2x + 3y = 6 ----------(3)

To eliminate x variable, we will add equation (1) and equation (3) together

(2 x+ [-2 x] = 2 x-2 x = 0           2 y + 3 y =  5 y       14 + 6=20)

The equations become;

5y  =   20

To get the value of y, we divide both-side of the equation by 5

5y/5    =  20/5

y  =  5

To find the value of x, we will simply substitute y =5 in equation (1)

2x + 2y = 14

2x  +  2(5)   = 14

2x + 10  = 14

subtract 10 from both-side of the equation

2x + 10 -10 = 14 -10

2x  =  4

Divide both-side of the equation by 2

2x/2   =  4/2

x = 2

x = 2 and y =5

Answer:

Your answer is Division Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

It <em>could</em> be Addition Property of Equality, but the second number shows it is actually the division property of equality. Here's my work:

-4x + 6y = 12 Given

(-4x/2) + (6y / 2) = (12/2)

--Simplify--

−2x + 3y = 6

Sidenote: I'm doing the test right now haha

A cuboid, with dimensions 28cm by 16cm by 15cm, has a volume of 6720cm cube. The cuboid is melted to form smaller cubes of lengt
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Vol of the cube =Vol of cubiod

Vol of each smaller cube =s×s×s= 4×4×4=64

Vol of cuboid /Vol of each smaller cube = no of cubes that can be obtained

6720/64= 105

Hence 105 cubes can be obtained

The product of two numbers is 240. The first number is 8 less than the second number. Write an equation can be used to find x
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

The equation x = y-8

The equation  (y-8) y = 240

The first number x = 12 and second number y =20

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Explanation</u>:-

<u>Step(l)</u>:-

Let 'x' be the first number and 'y' be the second number

Given the product of two numbers is 240

Given  data        x y = 240 …(l)

Given data the first number is 8 less than the second number.

                       x = y-8...(ll)

Substitute (ll) in equation (l) , we get

                           (y-8) y = 240

                           y^{2} -8y -240 =0

                            y^{2} -20y+12y -240 =0

                           y(y -20)+12(y -20) =0

                           (y +12)(y -20) =0

                          y = -12 and y = 20

              Y= -12 is not satisfied

              we can choose y = 20

<u>Step(ll):</u>-

Given data x =y-8

  substitute value y = 20 in x = y -8

                                             x = 20-8 = 12

<u>Final answer</u>:-

The first number x = 12 and second number y =20

Use linear approximation to approximate √25.3 as follows.
Sophie [7]

The idea is to use the tangent line to f(x)=\sqrt x at x=25 in order to approximate f(25.3)=\sqrt{25.3}.

We have

f(x)=\sqrt x\implies f(25)=\sqrt{25}=5

f'(x)=\dfrac1{2\sqrt x}\implies f'(25)=\dfrac1{10}

so the linear approximation to f(x) is

L(x)=f(5)+f'(5)(x-5)=5+\dfrac{x-5}{10}=\dfrac x{10}+\dfrac92

Hence m=\frac1{10} and b=\frac92.

Then

f(25.3)\approx L(25.3)=\dfrac{25.3}{10}+\dfrac92=\boxed{7.03}
