You need to solve a system of equations. You decide to use the elimination method. Which of these is not allowed?
Serggg [28]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The <u>Elimination Method</u> 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 multoplying 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 equation)

The population of a certain country is approximated by the following equation, where x is the number of years since 1980 and P i
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

In 2010 the population become 206,123,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

P=2.748x + 126.199

Where P represents the population in millions.

We need to determine the year in which the country had population of 206,123,000.

As P is in millions so divide 206,123,000 by one million.

\frac{206,123,000 }{1,000,000}= 206.123

Substitute P = 206.123 in above equation.

206.123=2.748x + 126.199

79.924=2.748x

x=\frac{79.924}{2.748}

x=29.08

30 year from 1980 the population become 206,123,000.

In 2010 the population become 206,123,000.
