3x+4y=-12 x-y=10 using elimination no links or download

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lerok [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 4, y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Elimination</u><u> </u><u>Method</u>

3x + 4y = -12 ---- (1)

x-y = 10 ---- (2)

(2) x 4:

4(x) 4(-y) = 4(10)

4x - 4y = 40 ---- (3)

(1) + (3):

3x + 4y + (4x - 4y) = -12 + 40

3x + 4y + 4x - 4y = 28

7x = 28

x = 28/7

x = 4

Sub x = 4 into (2):

(4) - y = 10

-y = 10 - 4

-y = 6

y = -6

Christopher's best time in a race is four seconds faster than his second-best time. his second best time is 1 1/3 times slower t
a_sh-v [17]
If his best time is x, and the best time is smaller, then (1+1/3)*x=his second best time. If x+4=his second best time (since his second best time is 4 seconds slower), then (1+1/3)*x=x+4. Multiplying it out, we get (3/3+1/3)*x=x+4
=4x/3=x+4. Subtracting x from both sides, we get 4x/3-3x/3=x/3=4. Multiplying both sides by 3, we get x=12=his best time
