Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
5²=25
1 in 10 is the probability of two people picking the same number.
To solve a system of equation by elimination, the coefficients of the same variable of both equations must be equal. In this case, let's choose y.
In order to make the coefficient of y of the second equation be equal to 7, we divide it by 2. Resulting to:
2x - 7y = -34
Next, add the two solutions so that the y term is eliminated. The result is:
10x = 5
Then solve for x
x = 1/2
Substitute x to either of the solution to solve for y. The result is:
y = 5
Answer:
I gave you most of the answer. I'll let you check my work and find the point using the solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we do is we divide by negative one in the first equation to get
y = -x.
-3x + 3y = -36
Plug in y = -x and get
-3x + 3(-x) = -36
= -3x - 3x = -36
This equals -6x = -36
divide both sides by -6 and you get 6. 6 is your x value
Plug 6 back in to the second equation.
-3x + 3y = -36
-3(6) + 3y = -36
-18 + 3y = -36
3y = -18
y = -6
