Given the following system of equations: 2x + 6y = 12 4x + 3y = 15 Which action creates an equivalent system that will eliminate

one variable when they are combined? Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −8x − 6y = −30. Multiply the first equation by 2 to get 4x + 12y = 24. Multiply the second equation by −4 to get −16x − 12y = −60. Multiply the first equation by −4 to get −8x − 24y = −48.

Answer:

Multiply the second equation by −2 to get −8x − 6y = −30.

Step-by-step explanation:

{2x + 6y = 12

{4x + 3y = 15

{2x + 6y = 12

{−8x − 6y = −30 >> New Equation

* Doing this will give you <em>additive</em><em> </em><em>inverses</em><em> </em>of −6y and 6y, which result in 0, so they are both ELIMINATED.

** [3, 1] is your solution.

Find the Solution of 2cos^2x + 3sin x =0
Evgen [1.6K]
2cos^2 x + 3sin x = 0
2(1 - sin^2 x) + 3sin x = 0
2 - 2sin^2 x + 3sin x = 0
2sin^2 x - 3sin x - 2 = 0

Let sin x = m, then
2m^2 - 3m - 2 = 0
2m^2 + m - 4m - 2 = 0
m(2m + 1) - 2(2m + 1) = 0
(m - 2)(2m + 1) = 0
m = 2 or m = -1/2

Now, sin x = -1/2
Therefore, x = 1/6(12nπ - π) and 1/6(12nπ + 7π)

Math help please! Thanks so much!

According do what i came up with. after 3 hours train (A) should be 150 miles out towards Smithville, while Train (B) will be 180 miles out towards Westtown. Its best to graph this out to better understand. so 330/2 = 165, so thats your half way point. use this to determine how far train (A) is from SV compared to train (B)s distance to WT. After 3 hours you can see at 180 miles out Train (B) will be crossing paths with Train (A) at 150 miles. So the answer would be 3 hours
