Substitute y = x + 1 into 2x - 5y = 4
-3x - 5 = 4
Solve for x in -3x - 5 = 4
x = -3
Substitute x = -3 into y = x + 1
y = -2
Therefore,
<u>x = -3</u>
<u>y = -2</u>
Answer:
See method below.
Step-by-step explanation:
m/n + n/3 = 2
2/m + n = 4
First eliminate the fractions by multiplying the first equation by 3n:-
3m + n^2 = 6n...........(1)
and the second equation by m:-
2 + mn = 4m..............(2)
Now we solve using substitution:-
From equation (2):-
4m - mn = 2
m = 2 / (4 - n)
Now substitute for m in equation (1):-
6/ (4 - n) + n^2 = 6n
6 + n^2(4 - n) = 6n(4 - n)
6 + 4n^2 - n^3 = 24n - 6n^2
n^3 - 10n^2 + 24n - 6 = 0
This will not factor so we could solve this using graphical software.
To find the values of the variable m we substitute the found values of n into one of the original equations and solve for m.
I would use what times 6 = 36 because 6*6+36
Answer:
<h3>
Bob walked faster than Ion.</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
90/4=22.5
Ian - 1 mile in 22.5 minutes
2x60=120
60/2=30
120+30=150
150/7=21.43
Bob - 1 mile in 21.43
