Answer:
The first equation must be multiplied by -5 to eliminate x variable by addition
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x - 3 y = 1 (1)
5 x + 4 y = 9 (2)
If the second equation is multiplied by 4
5x+4y=9. ×4
We have,
20x+16y=36 (3)
The first equation should be multiplied by -5 to eliminate x variable by addition
4x-3y=1 × -5
We have
-20x+15y=-5 (4)
Add equation (3) and (4) to eliminate x variable
20x+16y=36
-20x+15y=-5
31y=31
Divide both sides by 31
y=1
Substitute y=1 into equation (1)
4 x - 3 y = 1
4x-3(1)=1
4x-3=1
4x=1+3
4x=4
Divide both sides by 4
x=1
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
20-8=12
12÷2=6
6x6=36
The question is asking you to come up with a real-life example of something that can be represented as 15+ c= 17.50. If I were you I would do sales tax. You bought an item with a 15 dollar price tag, but when you go to check out 2.50 are added in tax to equal 17.50. to solve subtract 15 from 17.50: c= 2.50. Your variable (c) represents the sales tax. Hope that helps! :)
You have to get X all by itself so you divide 20 and 30 which gives you a fraction. X= 20/30
Then = 2/3
