Answer:

x = -9/7, y = 50/7.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 13 ---------(eqn 1)

3x - y = -11 -----------(eqn 2)

Let's solve simultaneously using elimination method by multiplying eqn 2 by 2 so as to eliminate y.

3x - y = - 11 -------( × 2)

It gives

6x - 2y = - 22 ---------- ( new eqn 2)

x + 2y = 13 -----------( eqn 1)

Now add eqn 1 and new eqn 2

6x + x -2y + 2y = -22 + 13

7x = -9

Divide both sides by 7

7x/7  = -9/7

x = -9/7

Put x = -9/7 into eqn 1

x + 2y = 13

-9/7 + 2y = 13

Add 9/7 to both sides

-9/7+9/7 + 2y = 13+9/7

2y = 100/7

Divide both sides by 2

2y/2 = 100/7 ÷ 2

y = 100/7 × 1/2

y = (100÷2)/7

y = 50/7

Therefore

x = -9/7, y = 50/7

(-9/7, 50/7)

Therefore (-1,7) is not the solution for both equations , it is not a solution for NEITHER equation.

I hope this was helpful, please rate as brainliest

Phoebe wants to get atleast a grade of 90 in the math class. Her grade will be the average of two tests. She scored a 94 on the
marin [14]
First things first, you will have 94 + x. Place those on top of a fraction bar and on the bottom put the two numbers over 2. So you have 94 + x over 2. Then, write the symbol ‘greater than or equal to’ and on the other side place your 90. So, 90 + x over 2 is greater than or equal to 90. This is a difficult thing to write out and explain so I hope this makes sense. :)

PLZ ANSWER APSP IM IN THE TEST RN!!!
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

x = 38

y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, you do

(2x + 5) = (3x - 33)

Subtract 2x from both sides to isolate x on one side, you get:

5 = (x - 33)

Add 33 to both sides to separate the normal number from the x, you get:

38 = x

From there, you plug x into one of the equations

2(38) + 5

The answer's 81, meaning that angle is 81 degrees. Using supplementary angles, you can find that angle ACD = 99, which you can use to find angle BCE. You'll get this equation:

(4y - 1) = 99

Add one to both sides to get rid of it, you get:

4y = 100

Divide by four, to get the y all alone:

y = 25

I hope this helped!
