Answer:
(-5,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
To eliminate x, multiply the first equation by 3 and add 2 times the second equation.
3(-2x +7y) +2(3x -4y) = 3(17) +2(-19)
-6x +21y +6x -8y = 51 -38
13y = 13
y = 1 . . . . . matches the third answer choice
(x, y) = (-5, 1)
This equation uses two properties of logarithms:
So you could take the ln from left and right hand side in the equation, and get:
(2-x)ln 3 = x ln 5
then
2 ln 3 - x ln 3 - x ln 5 = 0 =>
x(ln 3 + ln 5) = 2 ln 3
so x = 2 ln 3 / (ln3 + ln5)
Now using the 1st property you can say 2 ln 3 is ln 3² = ln9
and using the 2nd property you can say ln3 + ln5 = ln15
so x= ln9 / ln15
So you could take the ln from left and right hand side in the equation, and get:
(2-x)ln 3 = x ln 5
then
2 ln 3 - x ln 3 - x ln 5 = 0 =>
x(ln 3 + ln 5) = 2 ln 3
so x = 2 ln 3 / (ln3 + ln5)
Now using the 1st property you can say 2 ln 3 is ln 3² = ln9
and using the 2nd property you can say ln3 + ln5 = ln15
so x= ln9 / ln15
