<span>Multiply one of the equations so that both equations share a common complementary coefficient.
In order to solve using the elimination method, you need to have a matching coefficient that will cancel out a variable when you add the equations together. For the 2 equations given, you have a huge number of choices. I'll just mention a few of them.
You can multiply the 1st equation by -2/5 to allow cancelling the a term.
You can multiply the 1st equation by 5/3 to allow cancelling the b term.
You can multiply the 2nd equation by -2.5 to allow cancelling the a term.
You can multiply the 2nd equation by 3/5 to allow cancelling the b term.
You can even multiply both equations.
For instance, multiply the 1st equation by 5 and the second by 3. And in fact, let's do that.
5a + 3b = –9
2a – 5b = –16
5*(5a + 3b = -9) = 25a + 15b = -45
3*(2a - 5b = -16) = 6a - 15b = -48
Then add the equations
25a + 15b = -45
6a - 15b = -48
=
31a = -93
a = -3
And then plug in the discovered value of a into one of the original equations and solve for b.</span>
Based on the table showing the percentage of households playing games over the net, the average rate of change from 1999 to 2003 is 3.9% per year.
<h3>What is average rate of change?</h3>
This can be found as:
= (27.9 - 12.3) / 4 years
= 3.9% per year
In 2000, the instantaneous rate of change would be:
= (Rate in 2001 - Rate in 1999) / difference in years
= (24.4 - 12.3) / (2001 - 1999)
= 6.05%

x=50
Step-by-step explanation:
angle 1 and 3 are corresponding angles that menas they equal the same
so set it up like this 2x+10=110 solve for x
move over the 10, subtract 10 from 110 you get 100 and divide by 2
you get 50.
Answer:
The length of the rectangle is 9 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The length of rectangle(l) = (x+3) cm and a width of rectangle (w) = 
cm a
Also, perimeter of rectangle is 24 cm.
Perimeter of rectangle is to add the lengths of all the four sides.
Perimeter of rectangle (P) is given by;
P=2(l+w)
Substituting the value of P = 24 cm , l = (x+3) cm and w =
then,
Divide by 2 both sides of an equation;
Combine like terms;
Subtract 3 from both the sides we get;
Simplify:
Multiply both sides by 
we get
Therefore, length of rectangle(l) = (x+3) = 6+3 = 9 cm
