Answer:

a.  (15, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with those two equations:

1) a - 1.2b = -3

2) 0.2b + 0.6a = 12

We'll begin by modifying equation #1 to isolate a:

a = -3 + 1.2b

Then we'll use this value for a in the second equation:

0.2b + 0.6 (-3 + 1.2b) = 12

0.2b - 1.8 + 0.72b = 12

0.92b = 13.8

b = 15

Then we'll place that value of b in the first equation to find a:

a - 1.2 (15) = -3

a - 18 = -3

a = 15

Solve by elimination
multiply top by -1

-2x + y = -4
    x - y  = -2

-x = -6..............so x = 6

2(6) - y = 4
12-y = 4
-8 = -y
so y = 8

(-6,8)

Solve for x: 3 over 3 x plus 1 over quantity x plus 4 equals 10 over 7x. (2 points)
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Let me see if I can decipher that :P

3/(3x)+1/x+4=10/(7x)  first we need to make all terms have a common denominator of 21x...

(21+21+84x)/(21x)=30/(21x)  multiplying both sides by 21x leaves you with

21+21+84x=30  combine like terms on left side

42+84x=30  subtract 42 from both sides

84x=-12  divide both sides by 84

x=-1/7
