How to solve for elimination

Mathematics

Minchanka [31]3 years ago

In most cases, you can do the inverse (opposite) operation on both sides of an equation to cancel out a certain value.

For example:

2x + 3y = 20
-2x + y = 4

This is a system of equations, just combine them to give you:

4y = 24

and divide both sides by 4:

y = 6

Sorry if this isn't what you were asking for, but the question was so vague, and this is what I assumed you were asking about, hopefully this helps regardless.

Which inverse operation would you use to solve the equation x/6-4=8
Artist 52 [7]
Hi there!

To find x, you would need to use the inverse of subtraction (addition) and inverse of division (multiplication), since you'd need to isolate x to one side of the equation to set x equal to a number. 

Hope this helps!

Miguel tells his teacher1/5 is the same as 20%. Which best justifies Miguel’s answer? a.5 goes into 100 twenty times, so 20% is
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

C. 5 goes into 100 twenty times, and 1 times 20 is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, we know that when we multiply both numerator and denominator of a fraction by a same number then we obtain an equivalent fraction,

Here, the given fraction,

\frac{1}{5}

By the above statement,

\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1\times 20}{5\times 20}=\frac{20}{100}

Now,

a\%=\frac{a}{100}

\implies \frac{20}{100}=20\%

Hence,

\frac{1}{5}=20\%

Option C is correct.
