by the use of elimination method
make all coefficients of subject to be eliminated similar..by multiplying the coefficients with one another
for eqn(i)
5(-10y+9x=-9)
-50y+45x=-45
for eqn(ii)
9(10y+5x=-5)
90y+45x=-45
-50y+45x=-45
90y+45x=-45
...subtract each set from the other...
we get
-140y+0=0
y=0
from eqn(i)
10y+5x=-5
0+5x=-5
x= -1
In this situation you will need to do 8 divided by 25 which will give the answer 0.32.
Answer:
The jeweler made 11 bracelets and 7 necklaces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a jeweler had a fixed amount of gold to make bracelets and necklaces, and the amount of gold in each bracelet is 6 grams and the amount of gold in each necklace is 16 grams, knowing that the jeweler used 178 grams of gold and made 7 more necklaces than bracelets, to determine a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of bracelets made and the number of necklaces made, the following mathematical reasoning should be considered:
(16 - 6) x 7 = 70
178 - 70 = 108
108/6 = 18
18 - 7 = 11
(11 x 6) + (7 x 16) = X
66 + 112 = X
178 = X
Thus, the jeweler made 11 bracelets and 7 necklaces.
If it is 50 pages in an hour, half an hour would be 25 pages, and if it is 40 pages in an hour it would be 20 pages in half an hour, the answer is 5 pages more in half hour
