What is the solution to the following system of equations?

Mathematics

Answer:

(0, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following systems of linear equations;

3x - 2y = 12 ...... equation 1

16x - 4y = 24 ........ equation 2

We would solve for the solution using the elimination method;

Multiplying eqn 1 by 2, we have;

2 * (3x - 2y = 12)

6x - 4y = 24

16x - 4y = 24

Subtracting the two equations, we have;

(6x - 16x) + (-4y -[-4y]) = (24 - 24)

-10x - 0 = 0

-10x = 0

x = -0/10 = 0

Next, we would find the value of y;

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2y = 12

0 - 2y = 12

-2y = 12

y = -12/2

y = -6

Check:

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2(-6) = 12

0 - (-12) = 12

12 = 12

In response to very high demand, a new bike has been marked up by 25% and is now selling for 210.00. how much was the bike befor
harina [27]
Call the price of the bike before mark up 'x', then we have:

x + 0.25x = 210
      1.25x = 210 
             x = 168

Therefore, the bike cost $168 before 25% price increase.

Steps to solve a two step equation
Kobotan [32]
I'm not entirely sure about some of these because there could be multiple answers, i think. i'll just leave the ones i can't help you with blank.

1) Begin to (isolate) the (variable) by eliminating the (constant). To eliminate the constant, you want to make it (cancel?) because ___+___=___)
2) (Balance) your equation by doing the exact same thing in the opisite side of the (equal sign). 
3) Finish (isolating) the (variable) by eliminating the (coefficient). To eliminate the coefficient, you want to make it (cancel?) because ___x___=___,
4) (Balance) your equation by doing the exact same thing on the opposite side of the (equal sign). 
5) Check your answer by (plugging) it in or the _____. 

honestly, i find it really amusing that they found a way to break a TWO-step equation into 5 steps ?? but i hope this helps a little!!
