Solve the system of equations 3x+2y=14 2x-4y=4

1 answer:

8 0

3x + 2y = 14....multiply by 2
2x - 4y = 4
----------------
6x + 4y = 28 (result of multiplying by 2)
2x - 4y = 4
----------------add
8x = 32
x = 32/8
x = 4

2x - 4y = 4
2(4) - 4y = 4
8 - 4y = 4
-4y = 4 - 8
-4y = -4
y = -4/-4
y = 1

solution is (4,1)

4. The students in Mr. Michael’s art class are decorating a booth for Harvest Day. They have blue cloth that is 60 inches long,

MrRissso [65]

Length of blue cloth is 60 inches , length of gold cloth is 48 inches and length of white cloth is 72 inches.

a.

As, the length of all pieces are equal, so for getting the greatest possible length of the pieces, we need to find GCF(greatest common factor) of 60, 48 and 72.

First we will factor out all three numbers completely......

$60=2*2*3*5\\ \\ 48=2*2*2*2*3\\ \\ 72=2*2*2*3*3$
