<span>Multiply one of the equations so that both equations share a common complementary coefficient.
In order to solve using the elimination method, you need to have a matching coefficient that will cancel out a variable when you add the equations together. For the 2 equations given, you have a huge number of choices. I'll just mention a few of them.
You can multiply the 1st equation by -2/5 to allow cancelling the a term.
You can multiply the 1st equation by 5/3 to allow cancelling the b term.
You can multiply the 2nd equation by -2.5 to allow cancelling the a term.
You can multiply the 2nd equation by 3/5 to allow cancelling the b term.
You can even multiply both equations.
For instance, multiply the 1st equation by 5 and the second by 3. And in fact, let's do that.
5a + 3b = –9
2a – 5b = –16
5*(5a + 3b = -9) = 25a + 15b = -45
3*(2a - 5b = -16) = 6a - 15b = -48
Then add the equations
25a + 15b = -45
6a - 15b = -48
=
31a = -93
a = -3
And then plug in the discovered value of a into one of the original equations and solve for b.</span>
Answer:
1. 10 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, we want to find the number of weeks (w) that Kaitlyn must save $6 in order to have a total of $60.
... $6 × w = $60
Divide by $6 to get ...
... w = $60/$6 = 10
Kaitlyn must save for 10 weeks (if she starts with a balance of 0).

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>
The problem reads like we came in somewhere in the middle of it. We don't know what other steps you've been asked to perform, or any of the details of the problem you're asked to solve. We don't have Kaitllyn's initial balance, for example, which is essential to determining how long she must save. (If Kaitlyn's initial balance is $33, for example, she must only save for 4.5 weeks.)
-84 > -6(2 - 3b)
<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>
-84 > -12 + 18b
<em><u>Add 12 to both sides.</u></em>
-72 > 18b
<em><u>Divide both sides by 18.</u></em>
-4 > b
The value of b is less than -4
The path of the ball is an illustration of absolute equation.
The equation of the path is: 
The given parameters are:
--- the vertex (i.e. the point where the ball hits the wall)

Answer:
15.1792 or 15.18
Step-by-step explanation:
14.32 timex 6% or .06 is 0.8592. You add .8592 to 14.32 and get 15.1792 or 15.18 :)
