Franco:
3x+2y=19
Caryl:
2x+4y=24
now use elimination
-2(3x+2y=19)
1(2x+4y=24)
=
-6x-4y=-38
2x+4y=24
add them together
which equals -4x=-14
divide both sides by -4
-4x/-4=-14/-4
x=7/2
we found x, so we subsitute it into the the original equation
3x+2y=19
3(7/2)2y=19
2y+21/2=19
-21/2 -21/2
2y=17/2
divide by 2 on both sides
2y/2= 17/2/2
y=17/4
so x= 7/2 and y= 17/4
Step-by-step explanation:
÷6
First, simplify the 6
to an improper fraction, which is:

Next rewrite the equation using the improper fraction:
÷
Now, in order to divide the fraction, we will need to flip the second fraction over, and then multiply the two fractions together. A great way to remember this is the phrase <em>Copy Dot Flip - </em>Copy the first fraction, put a dot for multiplication, and flip the second fraction.
·
Finally, multiply together and simplify/reduce if needed:
<u>The final answer is </u>
<u> and no simplification or reduction is needed</u>
To find a fraction equivalent to 3/5 multiply both top and bottom numbers by the same number .Example of answer 6/10.
