See explanation for the incorrect step.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps for solving simultaneous equations by elimination method are;

  • Naming the equations (i) and (ii)
  • Multiplying each equation by a suitable number so that the two equations have the same leading coefficients
  • Subtracting the second equation (ii) from the first equation (i)
  • Solving the new equation for value of x or y
  • Substituting the value of x or y in equation (i) or (ii)
  • Getting the solutions

In this case, the equations are;

5x+3y=5-------------- (i)

8x+2y=6-------------- (ii)

--------------multiplying equation (i) by 2 and (ii) by 3

10x+6x=10

24x+6y=18

-------------------performing subtraction

14x=8 --------divide both sides by 14 to remain with x

14x/14 =8/14

x=8/14 = 4/7

Substitute value of x in equation (i)

5(4/7) +3y =5

20/7 +3y =5 -------collect like terms

3y= 5- 20/7

3y=15/7

y=5/7

D=a/a+12*M. The adult weighs 75 kg. Calculate the adults weight in kilograms to pounds. Round final answer 2 decimal places
andrew-mc [135]

An adult with a weight of 75 kilograms have an <em>equivalent</em> weight of 165.60 pounds.

<h3>How to convert kilograms to pounds</h3>

Herein we have an application of <em>unit</em> conversions between <em>weight</em> units, from kilograms to pounds. Unit conversions follow this <em>direct proportional</em> formula:

y = k · x

Where:

x - Weight in kilograms

y - Weight in pounds

k - Conversion ratio

If we know that x = 75 kg and k = 2.208 lb/kg, then the weight of the adult in pounds is:

y = (2.208 lb/kg) · (75 kg)

y = 165.6 lb

An adult with a weight of 75 kilograms have an <em>equivalent</em> weight of 165.60 pounds.

Rasek [7]

Answer:

=4xy−4y2+16x−16y

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x−2y)(2y+8)

=(2x+−2y)(2y+8)

=(2x)(2y)+(2x)(8)+(−2y)(2y)+(−2y)(8)

=4xy+16x−4y2−16y

=4xy−4y2+16x−16y

What is the common denominator of y+y=3/3 in the complex fraction y + y-3/3/5/9+2/3y? Options: 3y(y-3), y(y-3), 3y, 3
LuckyWell [14K]

We currently have two fractions: y / 1 and (y - 3) / 3.

In both cases, we are only concerned with the denominator. Yes, the numerator will change when we change the denominator, but that will not affect the answer to this question.

As such, we need to find the least common multiple of 1 and 3. That is 3. Therefore, the common denominator is 3.

Hope this helps!
