Which first step for solving the given system using substitution results in an equation without fractions?

Mathematics

Answer:

The step to take to avoid fraction is to solve for y in equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

-9x+ 4y =- 10

-9x+ 3y = 3

Required:

Step for solving using substitution (avoiding fraction)

Let -9x+ 4y =- 10  represent equation 1

and -9x+ 3y = 3 represent equation 2

The following points are to be noted

  • Solving for x or y in equation 1 will definitely lead to having fractions
  • Solving for x in equation 2 will also lead to having fractions

Having said that, the step to take to avoid fraction is to solve for y in equation 2

Check

-9x+ 3y = 3

Add 9x to both sides

9x-9x+ 3y = 3 + 9x

3y = 3 + 9x

Divide through by 3

\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{3 + 9x}{3}

y = \frac{3 + 9x}{3}

Split fraction

y = \frac{3}{3} + \frac{9x}{3}

y = 1 + 3x

<em>At the point, the expression of y can then be substituted in equation 1</em>

Y is inversely proportional to x.
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y is inversely proportional to x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{k}{x} ← k is the constant of proportionality

To find k use the condition that y = 7, x = 9

k = yx = 7 × 9 = 63, thus

y = \frac{63}{x} ← equation of proportion

When x = 21, then

y = \frac{63}{21} = 3

slader How many partitions of the set {1, 2, 3, . . . , 100} are there such that there are exactly three parts and elements 1, 2
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

3^{97} partitions.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know if we have x number of elements we can arrange them in x! ways.

here we have 100 elements so we can arrange them in 100! ways.

Now if we have exactly three parts and 1,2 and 3 are in different parts then let consider 1 goes to part 1, 2 goes to part 2, and 3 goes to part 3. For the remaining 97 elements,  we have three options for each element, thus we can arrange the remaining 97 elements in 3^{97} ways/partitions.

each of these partition will contain only three elements.

Solve for the variable a D =a+b-c/3
yuradex [85]
Hey there,
solving for a is just like you think of all other letter as a constant
i.e the only variable is a
so you need to subtract b as a start
      d=a+b-c/3
-b             -b
=============

    -b+d=a-c/3                now it's time to add c/3 (isolate a by itself in one side)

     -b+d=a-c/3
+c/3         +c/3
==============
c/3-b+d=a

Hence you have solved for a

Is it possible for two tangents to intersect outside the circle?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

If they do intersect, the measurement of the angles they form is a half the difference of the intercepted arcs; both of the intercepted arcs would measure 180 degrees.
