Mathematics
1 answer:

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

For which real a is the following lim true?
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

a=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Both for nominator and denominator, as the n goea to infinity only the gratest degree becomes meaningful. So that, 'a' must be equal to coefficient of n^4. So the answer is a=1.

A line that includes the points (6,h) and (7,−10) has a slope of −7.
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

h=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-7=(-10-h)/(7-6)

-7=(-10-h)/1

-7*1=-10-h

-7=-10-h

h=-10-(-7)

h=-10+7

h=-3
