3p + 2q = 14 10p + 6q = 44 What is p and what is q

Mathematics
1 answer:
Airida [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

p = 2 ; q = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given tbe equation :

3p + 2q = 14 - - - (1)

10p + 6q = 44 - - -(2)

What is p and what is q

This is a simultaneous equation ; using elimination method :

Multiply (1) by 6 and (2) by 2

18p + 12q = 84 - - - - (3)

20p + 12q = 88 - - - (4)

Subtract (3) and (4)

-2p = - 4

p = 4/2

p = 2

Put p = 2 in (1)

3p + 2q = 14

3(2) + 2q = 14

6 + 2q = 14

2q = 14 - 6

2q = 8

q = 8/2

q = 4

p = 2 ; q = 4

What is the surface area of this rectangular prism?
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

160cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

So the surface area is basicly the sum of all the areas of the rectangles in this prism.

So the formula can be written as  2(wl + hl+hw).

The w stands for width, the h stands for height, and the l stands for length.

5cm is the width, 10 cm is the length, and 2 cm is the height.

So inserting all those values for the variabls the formula now looks like this.

2((5)(10)+(2)(10)+(2)(5)).

So 5*10 is <u><em>50</em></u>

2*10 is <u><em>20</em></u>

2*5 is <em><u>10</u></em>

So adding all that up we get 80.

Then multiplyong that by 2 we get 160cm^2.

Anybody good at this?<br> x - ( 9x -10) + 11 = 12x + 3 ( -2 + 1/3)
kenny6666 [7]
X - (9x -10) + 11 = 12x + 3( -2 + 1/3)
x - 9x + 10 + 11 = 12x - 5  ...........................(1/3-2) = -5/3 => x 3 = -5
-8x + 21 = 12x - 5
26 = 20x
x = 13/10
