The product of a number and its multiplicative inverse is 1.
2x+2y=16
<span>2x+6y=28
all you have to do is subtract to get rid of the 2x and solve for y
2x+2y = 16
-2x-6y = -28
---------------------------
0 -4y = -12
y = 3
now we got y we can plug in or do the systems of equation again and find x. lets do systems of equations again.
</span>2x+2y=16
<span>2x+6y=28
</span><span>
this time i am going to multiple the top by -3 and then add the equations hopefully it is clear why I multiple by -3
</span><span>
-3(2x+2y = 16)
2x +6y = 28
-6x - 6y = -48
</span>2x +6y = 28
------------------------
-4x + 0y = -20
x = 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If 3/4 of the lot was full and the lot holds 1000 vehicles, then there are 3/4(1000) in the lot. 3/4(1000) = 750. That means there are 750 vehicles in the lot. If 200 cars are in the lot, then 750 - 200 = 550 trucks.
