Solve the following system of equations by linear combination: 2d + e = 8 d – e = 4

Mathematics

Because there is a +e and a -e in the two equations we can simply add them together to solve for d...

2d+e+d-e=8+4  combine like terms

3d=12 divide by 3

d=4,  now use this d in either original equation to solve for e...<span>d–e=4 so

4-e=4 subtract 4

-e=0 

e=0

So the solution, where the lines intersect graphically, is the point (4, 0)</span>

Hey Guys &lt;33 Can someone help me with this math question? Thank you if you do :))
rosijanka [135]
Both of these have the same number of solutions (which is 2)

Remember that |5x + 6| means "the absolute value of the expression '5x + 6'", so in this case, 5x + 6 could equal 41 or -41 since the absolute value would "strip away" the positive or negative sign and leave just the number

So, if you solve:
5x + 6 = 41
5x = 41 - 6 = 35
x = 35 / 5 = 7

5x + 6 = -41
5x = -41 - 6
5x = -47
x = -47 / 5

Do the same thing for the other expression:

2x + 13 = 28
2x = 28 - 13 = 15
x = 15 / 2

2x + 13 = -28
2x = -28 - 13
2x = -41
x = -41 / 2

So, both of these expressions have two solutions.

Hope this helps!

Good luck.
