ANSWER

The correct answer is option B

EXPLANATION


The equations are

3x+5y=29---(1)


and


x+4y=16---(2)


When we multiply the second equation by -3, we obtain;


-3x-12y=-48---(3)


When we combine this new equation with equation (1).


-7y=-19


We can see that x has been eliminated from the equation.


We can then, solve for  y and then substitute the result in to any of the equations to find x.


Hence the correct answer is option B

<u>Answer:</u>

B) Multiply the second equation by −3 to get −3x − 12y = −48

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given two equations:

3x+5y= 29 --- (i)

x+4y = 16 --- (ii)

If we multiply the second equation by -3, we get:

-3(x+4y) = 16

-3x-12y=-48 --- (iii)

Combining equation (i) and (iii) to get:

3x+5y-3x-12y=29-48

3x and -3x cancel each other so x is eliminated and we are left with:

-7y= -19

Therefore, the correct answer option is B) Multiply the second equation by −3 to get −3x − 12y = −48.

Solve the equation
Vikki [24]

Answer:

x ≈ - 5.32, x ≈ 1.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 4x - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )

x² + 4x = 7

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(2)x + 4 = 7 + 4

(x + 2)² = 11 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 2 = ± \sqrt{11} ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x = - 2 ± \sqrt{11}

Thus

x = - 2 - \sqrt{11} ≈ - 5.32 ( to 2 dec. places )

x = - 2 + \sqrt{11} ≈ 1.32 ( to 2 dec. places )

3/6 + 1/2 what is the answer.​
Simora [160]

Answer:

reduce 3/6 to lowest terms which would be, 1/2 because 3 goes into 3 once and 3 goes into 6 twice.  

Making your equation simplified to

1/2 + 1/2

which is equal to 1

1/2 + 1/2 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps! Have a fantastic day and please mark brainliest
