What is the solution of the following linear system of equations? 4y=−5x−2, x−4y=14

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lisa [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

X = 2 and Y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

4y = -5x - 2

x - 4y = 14

5x + 4y = -2....... equation 1

x - 4y = 14........... equation 2

<u>Using Elimination </u><u>Method</u>

Add Equation 1 to Equation 2

6x = 12

Divide both side by 6

X= 2

Put X= 2 into Equation 1

5(2) + 4y = -2

10 + 4y = -2

4y = -2 - 10

4y = -12

Divide both side by 4

Y = -3

Therefore

x = 2

y = -3

Maricella solves for x in the equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1. She begins by adding –4 + 4 on the left side of the equation an
Elodia [21]

Maricella’s strategy is incorrect as the values added on the left and right side of the equation changes the original equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1  to  4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+3.

Further explanation:

Maricella begin by adding -4+4 on the left side of the equation and 1+1 on the right side of the equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1.

The value added on the left is equal to zero so it does not change the equation but the value added on the right is 2, a non-zero digit so it changes the equation as shown below.

4x-2(3x-4)+4-4+4=-x+3(x+1)+1+1+1\\4x-2(3x-4)+4+0=-x+3(x+1)+1+2\\4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+3

Therefore, the strategy used by Maricella will change the equation and so the solution of the equation will be incorrect.

One way of solving such a linear equation is by adding or subtracting the required value on each side of the equation. and then simplifying the further equation.

Similarly, the other way to solve any linear equation is by separating the variable terms on one side of the equation and constant terms on the other side of the equation.

After this simplify the linear equation to obtain the solution of the equation for x.

Whereas Maricella’s strategy fails to solve the equation 4x-2(3x-4)+4=-x+3(x+1)+1 since the values added and subtracted in the equation changes the original equation completely.

german
Answer: 5,600

Explanation: By multiplying 0.10 (4,000) to find the interest for one year, you get 400. Because she is using this loan for 4 years you multiply that one year interest by 4. 400 times 4 is 1600. Then, you add that 1600 (which is the total interest for 4 years) to the loan, to get an answer of 5,600.
