3x - 5y = 14 and – 2x + 2y = 0

Mathematics
1 answer:
zubka84 [21]3 years ago

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

Jimmy brings $24 to the county fair for rides. Roller coaster rides cost $2, and the spinning cup rides cost $3. But Jimmy knows
Lorico [155]

Answer:

2r + 3s ≤ 24

r ≤ 6

s ≤ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Total amount with Jimmy = $24

Cost of Rollercoaster ride (r) = $2

Cost of spinning cup ride (s) = $3

Queasy if r is greater than 6

Queasy if s is greater than 8

Cost of ride :

(Number of r * cost of r) + (number of s * cost of s) ≤ total amount

Hence,

2r + 3s ≤ 24

To avoid getting queasy :

r ≤ 6

s ≤ 8

2r + 3s ≤ 24

r ≤ 6

s ≤ 8
