5x + 8y =2 4x -6y =9

Mathematics
1 answer:
Taya2010 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 42/31, y = -37/62

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 8y =2

4x -6y =9

Multiply the first equation by 4

4(5x + 8y) =2*4

20x +32y = 8

Multiply this equation by -5

-5(4x -6y) =9*-5

-20x +30y = -45

Add them together

20x +32y = 8

-20x +30y = -45

-----------------------------

62y = -37

Divide by 62

62y/62 = -37/62

Multiply the first equation by 3

3(5x + 8y) =2*3

15x +24y =6

And the second equation by 4

4(4x -6y) =9*4

16x -24y = 36

Add them together

15x +24y =6

16x -24y = 36

-----------------

31x = 42

Divide by 31

31x/31 = 42/31

x = 42/31

Information about how the students at Vista View High School got to school this morning is shown in the table. A 6-column table
gavmur [86]

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is D. 114</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 252 students of twelfth grade at Vista View High School.

99 walked to school

11 went by bicycle

28 used the school bus

To find the amount of twelfth graders that rode in a car, we do this calculation:

Amount of twelfth graders that rode in a car = Total of twelfth graders - those who walked - those who went by bicycle - those who used the bus

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Amount of twelfth graders that rode in a car = 252 - 99 - 11 - 28 = 252 - 138 = 114

<u>The correct answer is D. 114</u>
