Answer:

x=5.6

y=-5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5y = 14 Equation 1

– 2x + 2y = 0 Equation 2

Simultaneous equation can be solved either through elimination method or substitution method. But we use elimination method for this question

Multiply equation 1 by -2 (the coefficient of x in equation 2) and multiply equation 2 with 3 (the coefficient of x in equation 1), so that x will have the same coefficient in the new equations, and easy to eliminate

-2(3x - 5y = 14)

-6x+10y=-28 Equation 3

3(– 2x + 2y = 0)

-6x+6y=0 Equation 4

Subtract equation 4 from 3 to eliminate x

-6x+10y=-28

-6x+6y=0

-6x-(-6x)=-6x+6x=0

10y-6y=5y

-28-0=-28

5y=-28

y=-28/5

y=-5.6

Substitute for y in equation 2

– 2x + 2y = 0

– 2x + 2(-5.6) = 0

-2x-11.2=0

-2x=11.2

x=-11.2/2

x=5.6

What are scale drawings? can you give an example?
Alecsey [184]
Scale Drawings are drawings that are used to show the true size of something.
Scale drawings are most commonly used in maps, or in large scale drawings. These show the scale of something. It may show that 1cm is equivalent to 1km, which would allow someone to measure the map to see how far the distance it. It also allows a map to be made smaller, and less detailed- making it often easier to read.
Hope this helps :)
