Answer:
(x, y) = (5, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
To <em>eliminate</em> x, you can double the second equation and subtract the first.
... 2(x +4y) -(2x -3y) = 2(9) -(7)
...11y = 11 . . . . . simplify
... y = 1 . . . . . . divide by 11
Using the second equation to find x, we have ...
... x + 4·1 = 9
... x = 5 . . . . . subtract 4
_____
<u>Check</u>
2·5 -3·1 = 10 -3 = 7 . . . . agrees with the first equation
(Since we used the second equation to find x, we know it will check.)
Answer:
x < 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
10x > 8(3x - 2) - 12 ← distribute parenthesis on right side
10x > 24x - 16 - 12, that is
10x > 24x - 28 ( subtract 24x from both sides )
- 14x > - 28
Divide both sides by - 14, reversing the inequality symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.
x < 2
Answer:
It is 2 i : 2 imaginary solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<u>Step 1: Solve for x in the first equation</u>
<u />
<u>Step 2: Solve for x in the second equation</u>
<u />
Since you divide by a negative, you must flip the sign.
