Solve the simultaneous equation 2x - 5y = 9 3x + 4y = 2

Mathematics

Answer:

x = 2, y = -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 5y = 9

3x + 4y = 2

Multiply first equation by -3 and the second by 2:

-6x + 15y = -27

6x + 8y = 4            Adding the 2 equations:

23y = -23

y = -1.

Now substitute this value for y in the first equation:

2x - 5(-1) = 9

2x = 9 +5(-1)

2x = 9 - 5

2x = 4

x = 2.

<h2>Range of x </h2><h3>-\frac{1}{5} and x>6</h3><h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Given AB = 4x + 5, BC = 3x - 2 and AC 9x -5

The sum of the length of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of third side.

Case I

AB + BC > AC

⇔4x +5 +3x -2 > 9x -5

⇔7x + 3 >9x - 5

⇔ 7x -9x > -5 -3

⇔-2x > -8

⇔x <4

Case II

if AB+AC > BC

4x +5 +9x -5> 3x -2

⇔13x >3x -2

⇔ 13x -3x> -2

⇔10x > -2

⇔x >-\frac{1}{5}

Case III

AC+BC > AB

⇔9x - 5 +3x - 2 > 4x +5

⇔6x -7 > 4x +5

⇔6x -4x >5+7

⇔2x > 12

⇔x > 6

Please help! It’s Saturday and I only have this question left on my digital worksheet!
Natalija [7]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is option C</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>\frac{ {6}^{ - 3} }{ {6}^{5} }</h3>

Using the rules of indices

Since the bases are the same and are dividing we subtract the exponents

That's

<h3>\frac{ {a}^{x} }{ {a}^{y} }  =  {a}^{x - y}</h3>

So we have

<h3>\frac{ {6}^{ - 3} }{ {6}^{5} }  =  {6}^{ -  3 - 5}  =  {6}^{ - 8}</h3>

Using the rules of indices

<h3>{x}^{ - y}  =  \frac{1}{ {x}^{y} }</h3>

So we have the final answer as

<h2>\frac{1}{ {6}^{8} }</h2>

Hope this helps you
