What is x-2y=-1 and 2x+y=4 using elimination step by step

Mathematics
1 answer:
otez555 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 7/5  , y = 6/5

Step-by-step explanation using elimination:

Solve the following system:

{x - 2 y = -1 | (equation 1)

2 x + y = 4 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:

{2 x + y = 4 | (equation 1)

x - 2 y = -1 | (equation 2)

Subtract 1/2 × (equation 1) from equation 2:

{2 x + y = 4 | (equation 1)

0 x - (5 y)/2 = -3 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by -2:

{2 x + y = 4 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y = 6 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 2 by 5:

{2 x + y = 4 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6/5 | (equation 2)

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1:

{2 x+0 y = 14/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6/5 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 2:

{x+0 y = 7/5 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6/5 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 7/5  , y = 6/5

AB = 2x-5 BC = 6x AC = 27
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

correct answer is x = 2.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

AB = 2x-5

BC = 6x

AC = 27

Hence,

=> AC = AB + BC

=> 27 = 2x-5 + 6x

=> 27 = 8x-5

=> 27-5 = 8x

=> 22 = 8x

=> 22/8 = x

=> 11/4 = x

or

2.75 = x
