Solve the following using substitution method

Mathematics
1 answer:
Wewaii [24]3 years ago
6 0

Solution :

2a + 2b = 7    ...1)

4a + 3b = 12   ...2)

In equation, 1)

a = (7 - 2b)/2   ...3)

Putting value of a in equation 2) we get :

4 × (7 - 2b)/2  + 3b = 12

2( 7 - 2b ) + 3b = 12

14 - 4b + 3b = 12

b = 2

Putting value of b in 3) we get :

a = ( 7 - 2×2)/2

a = 3/2 = 1.5

Now,

2x - 3y = 16   ...5)

x + 2y = -6    ...6)

x = -6 - 2y

Putting above value of x in eq 5) , we get :

2( -6 - 2y ) - 3y = 16

-12 - 4y - 3y = 16

7y = -28

y = -4

x = -6 - ( 2× -4 )

x = 2

Hence, this is the required solution.

El ancho de un rectángulo es 15 pies menos que
Karolina [17]

Answer:

II. Longitud, L = 70 metros.

I. Ancho = 55 metros.

Step-by-step explanation:

Deje que la longitud del rectángulo sea L.

Deje que el ancho del rectángulo sea W.

Dados los siguientes datos;

Perímetro del rectángulo = 250 m

Traduciendo el problema verbal a una expresión algebraica, tenemos;

W = L - 15

Matemáticamente, el perímetro de un rectángulo viene dado por la fórmula;

P = 2 (largo + ancho)

250 = 2 (L + L - 15)

250 = 2 (2L - 15)

250 = 4L - 30

4L = 250 + 30

4L = 280

L = 280/4

Longitud, L = 70 m

Para encontrar el ancho;

W = L - 15

W = 70 - 15

Ancho = 55 m

Changing Bases to Evaluate Logarithms in Exercise, use the change-of-base formula and a calculator to evaluate the logarithm. Se
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

-0.6309

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the change of base formula,

Log 1/2 to base 3 = Log1/2 ÷ Log 3 = Log 0.5 ÷ Log 3

Log 0.5 = -0.3010

Log3 = 0.4771

Log 0.5 ÷ Log 3 = -0.3010 ÷ 0.4771 = -0.6309
