4x -2y = 60
4x -3y = 26
(-) (+) (-)
__________
1y = 34
y = 34

To find x
4x -2y = 60
4x -(2)(34) = 60
4x -68 = 60
4x = 60 + 68
4x = 128
x = 32

Answer:
x=32 ; y=34

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 2y = 60

4x - 3y = 26.....multiply by -1

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

4x - 2y = 60

-4x + 3y = -26 (result of multiplying by -1)

-----------------------add

y = 34

4x - 2y = 60

4x - 2(34) = 60

4x - 68 = 60

4x = 60 + 68

4x = 128

x = 128/4

x = 32

check...

4x - 3y = 26

4(32) - 3(34) = 26

128 - 102 = 26

26 = 26 (correct)

so x = 32 and y = 34.....or (32,34)

Find the derivatives of the following implicit function

ddd [48]

Answer:

$\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)=\frac{2-6x+6y}{-6x+2y+1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x^2-6xy+y^2=2x-y\\\mathrm{Treat\:}y\mathrm{\:as\:}y\left(x\right)\\\mathrm{Differentiate\:both\:sides\:of\:the\:equation\:with\:respect\:to\:}x\\\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x^2-6xy+y^2\right)=\frac{d}{dx}\left(2x-y\right)\\\frac{d}{dx}\left(3x^2-6xy+y^2\right)=6x-6\left(y+x\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)\right)+2y\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)\\\frac{d}{dx}\left(2x-y\right)=2-\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)\\6x-6\left(y+x\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)\right)+2y\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)=2-\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)$

$\mathrm{For\:convenience,\:write\:}\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)\mathrm{\:as\:}y^{'\:}\\6x-6\left(y+xy^{'\:}\right)+2yy^{'\:}=2-y^{'\:}\\\mathrm{Isolate}\:y^{'\:}:\quad y^{'\:}=\frac{2-6x+6y}{-6x+2y+1}\\y^{'\:}=\frac{2-6x+6y}{-6x+2y+1}\\\mathrm{Write}\:y^{'\:}\:\mathrm{as}\:\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)\\\frac{d}{dx}\left(y\right)=\frac{2-6x+6y}{-6x+2y+1}$

3. The ratio of boys to girls in the 9th grade is 7 to 8. There are 304 girls. How many boys are there?

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: 266 boys
Because there are 304 girls we do 304/8=38 now we do 38 multiplied by 7 (as that is the ratio for the number of boys) 38*7=266 boys
