Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 13y = 232
12x + 7y = 218
For each choice:
a) The first equation can be multiplied by –13 and the second equation by 7 to eliminate y. So we have
- 65x - 169y = - 3016
84x + 49y = 1526
Can not eliminate x and y.
b) The first equation can be multiplied by 7 and the second equation by 13 to eliminate y. So we have
35x + 91 y = 1624
156x + 91y = 2834
Can not eliminate x and y if we ADD.
<em>(If we subtract, this is Yes)</em>
<em></em>
c) The first equation can be multiplied by –12 and the second equation by 5 to eliminate x.
-60x - 156y = - 2784
60x + 35y = 1090
The answer is YES
d) The first equation can be multiplied by 5 and the second equation by 12 to eliminate x.
25x + 65y = 1160
144x + 84y = 2616
Can not eliminate x and y
The final answer is C
Answer:
5/(760=76
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
50,000 ≤ 23,210 + 5x
x = Average number of words per week
Step-by-step explanation:
Start off with 50,000 because that's how many words the paper needs to have.
Use "≤" because Trevor needs to write at least 50,000 words. (He can write more).
Trevor already wrote 23,210 words plus x words per week for 5 weeks.
(Solving for x will help you find the average number of words Trevor must write per week for 5 weeks).
