Answer:
Yumiko should multiply the other equation by 3.
If she adds the two equations she would be left with the variable 'x'.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the two equations are as follows:
It is given that she multiplies the first equation by 6. Therefore, (1) becomes
Now, note that the sign of the variable 'y' is negative. So, if we make the co-effecient of 'y' equal in both the cases, add them it would result in the elimination of the variable 'y'.
The co-effecient of y in Equation (2) is 6. To make it 18 like it is in Equation (1), we multiply throughout by 3.
Therefore, Equation (2) becomes:
Now, we add Equation (a) and Equation (b).
Factor: 3
Equation: 27x = 126
Answer:
30 students
Step-by-step explanation:
24 over 80 is equal to x over 100
cross multiply and you get
80x =240
divide 80 on both sides
you get 3
add an extra sero
Answer:
y+20 = 9(x+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope that passes through the points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (79- -20)/ (9--2)
= (79+20)/(9+2)
= 99/11
= 9
We can use point slope form to write an equation. It says to use the first point.
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y--20 = 9(x--2)
y+20 = 9(x+2)
Answer:
y = 5/3x +5
Step-by-step explanation:
The two-point form of the equation of a line is useful here.
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
y = (0 -(-5))/(-3 -(-6))(x -(-6)) -5
y = 5/3(x +6) -5
y = 5/3x +5 . . . . slope-intercept form
5x -3y = -15 . . . .standard form
_____
There is no "fully reduced" form of the equation of a line. There are slope-intercept form, point-slope form, two-point form, standard form, general form, intercept form, and some others. We assume that "fully reduced" applies to any fractions in the equation. The "slope-intercept" form has a fraction, so perhaps that's the form that is required.
