We need to solve the following system by substituition:
To solve by substituition means that we need to isolate one variable in one of the equations and replace one expression with the other. This is done below:
Then we need to replace the value of "x" in any of the two equations.
The solution is (-3,-5).
Answer:
Possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the silk fiber = x yards.
Let the number of silk fibres = a.
It is given that the silk fibers between 3 to 10 yards are combined to form a silk thread of 300 yards.
So, we get the equation,
, where
i.e. ,
So, the possible values of 'a' are 3, 4, 5, 6 an 10.
Thus, the possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.
