 x - 2y = 5
-3x + 2y = 7
-----------------add
-2x = 12
x = 12/-2
x = -6

-3x + 2y = 7
-3(-6) + 2y = 7
18 + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 18
2y = - 11
y = -11/2

solution is : (-6,-11/2)...x = -6 and y = -11/2

Answer: C) x=-6

Step-by-step explanation: we can solve a system of equation by different methods, in this case we will use substitution:  

First we isolate the x from the first equation:

x=5+2y

then we replace it in the second equation:

-3x+2y=7

-3(5+2y)+2y=7

now we solve and isolate the y

-15-6y+2y=7

-15-4y=7

-4y=7+15

-4y=22

y=22/-4

y=-11/2

now we replace the value of y in the first equation:

x=5+2y

x=5+2(-11/2)

x=5-11

x=-6

Veronika [31]

Answer:I think you are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We know she got one 100

But we don't know how many 85's she got

So we put x with 85 so (85x) plus the only 100 she got

Leading us too 440

Total gasoline = 10 gallons

Gasoline left after 100 miles = 5 gallons

Gasoline used in 100 miles

= Total gasoline - Gasoline left after 100 miles

= 10 gallons - 5 gallons

= 5 gallons

Gasoline used in 1 mile

= Gasoline used in 100 miles/100

= 5 gallons/100

= 0.05 gallons

The product of two positive numbers is 48. the larger number is 13 more than the smaller. Find both numbers [Only an algebraic s
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Larger number:

16

Smaller number

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Larger number: 16

Smaller number: 3

Explanation:

Suppose the larger number is

a

and the smaller number is

b

.

You solve the following system of equations:

a⋅b=48

a−13=b

Since b is a −13, you can plug that into a⋅b=48, so...a⋅(a−13)=48

a 2−13a=48

a2−13a−48=0

Factor the polynomial:

(a−16)(a+3)=0

a=16 or a=−3a is positive so a=16.

We can now solve for b by plugging in a, so...16−13=b3=b We have a=16 and b=3, meaning that the larger number is 16 and the smaller number is 3.
