Hi there!
So, our two equations are:
2x + 3y = 20 and
-2x + y = 4
We can see that the x's will cancel out because they're the same number, opposite signs. Then we're left with 4y = 24.
Divide 24 by 4, which is 6.
y = 6, then we plug that in to the first equation for y:
2x + 3(6) = 20
2x + 18 = 20
2x = 2
x = 1
So, she made her first mistake when adding the equations, adding 20 and 4, she somehow got 16.
The solution to the system is (1,6).
I hope I helped!
Start with the first sentence, and the definition of the area of a rectangle:
l * w = 36
Rewrite the equation to get
l = 36 / w
or
w = 36 / l
Either one shows the inverse relationship between w and l.
Assuming the last part wants you to write an equation for an x-y graph, the equation would be
y = 36 / x
Let the first page = x
The second page would be x + 1
Add them together to equal 347
X + x + 1 = 347
Combine like terms:
2x + 1 = 347
Subtract 1 from both sides
2x = 346
Divide both sides by 2:
X = 173
The smaller page number is 173
The larger page number is 174

Step-by-step explanation:
lets look at the numbers
38-19=19
57-38=19
76-57=19
aₙ=aₙ-₁ +19
