Solve using system of equations by using elimination method for -5x+4y=2 ; 9x-4y=6

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

y = 3

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + 4y = 2

9x - 4y = 6

Sum both eq.

-5x + 9x = 4x

+4y - 4y = 0

2 + 6 = 8

then:

4x + 0 = 8

4x = 8

x = 8/4

x = 2

from the first eq.

-5x + 4y = 2

-5*2 + 4y = 2

-10 + 4y = 2

4y = 2 + 10

4y = 12

y = 12/4

y = 3

Check:

from the second eq.

9x - 4y = 6

9*2 - 4*3 = 6

18 - 12 = 6

How many liters of 60% alcohol solution should be added to 40 liters of a 20% alcohol solution to make a 50% solution?

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

120 liters of 60% alcohol solution is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume

x liters of 60% alcohol solution is added

so, we get solution as

$=\frac{60}{100}\times x$

$=0.6x$

we are given

40 liters of a 20% alcohol solution is

$=40\times\frac{20}{100}$

$=40\times\frac{20}{100}$

$=8$

so, total alcohol solution is

$=8+0.6x$

now, we can find total solutions

total solutions is

$=x+40$

now, it is making 50% solution

so, we get

$\frac{8+0.6x}{x+40} =\frac{50}{100}$

now, we can solve for x

$\left(8+0.6x\right)\cdot \:100=\left(x+40\right)\cdot \:50$

$800+60x=50x+2000$

$10x=1200$

$x=120$

So,

120 liters of 60% alcohol solution is needed

Nickels is 0,05 of dolar - n
dimes is 0,1 o dolar -d
quarters is 0,25 of dolar -q
dimes =2nickels
d=2n
quarters=2dimes
q=2d=4n
12,5=n(0,05)+2n(0,1)+4n(0,25)
12,5=0,05n+0,2n+n
12,5=1,25n
n=10
