Answer:
You can use Gaussian Elimination.
Double both sides of the first equation and add the second equation.
6x + 4y = 8
5x - 4y = 3
---------------
11x = 11
x = 1
5 - 4y = 3
-4y = -2
y = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3/(5x) + x = 3/(5x) + x/1 * (5x)/(5x)
= 3/(5x) + 5x²/5x
= (3+5x²) / 5x
So here is the answer. Initially, Ed's toy cars compared to Pete's toy cars was 5:2. So for every 5 cars that Ed has, Pete has 2. Now that Ed gave 30 cars to Pete. So here it goes. The total number of ratio units is 5+2=7, so each will have an equal number if they both have 3.5 ratio units. That is, if Ed transfers to Pete 1.5 ratio units, their car counts will be equal. Thus 1.5 ratio units = 30 cars, or 1 ratio unit = 20 cars. Therefore, this makes <span> 7*20 cars = 140 cars.

Answer:
D. There is no x value as there is no solution to this system
Step-by-step explanation:
2x − 3y = 3 5x − 4y = 4
5x - 4y = 4 -4y = -5x + 4 y = 5/4x - 1
2x - 3(5/4x - 1) = 3
2x - 15/4x + 3 = 3
-7/4x = 0
x = 0
