Which of these strategies would eliminate a variable in the system of equations?

Answer:

<em>Multiply the bottom equation by -3/2 then add the equations. </em>

<em>Multiply the top equation by-3. then add the equations </em>

<em> </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation

2x- 6y=6  ... 1

6x - 4y = 2 ... 2

To eliminate a variable, we have to make the coefficient of one of the variable to be the same.

Multiply equastion 1 by -3

-6x+18y= -18  

6x - 4y = 2

Add the result:

-6x + 6x + 18y-4y = -18+2

18y-4y = -18+2

14y = -18

y = -9/7

Another way is to Multiply the bottom equation by -3/2 then add the equations.

Multiplying equation 2 by -3/2 will give;

6x(-3/2) - 4y(-3/2) = 2(-3/2)

-9x + 6y = -3

Add to equation 1;

2x- 6y=6

-9x + 2x + 0 = -3+6

-7x = 3

x = -3/7

Hence the correct two options are;

<em>Multiply the bottom equation by -3/2 then add the equations. </em>

<em>Multiply the top equation by-3. then add the equations </em>

<em> </em>

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3 is the gradient of the other line

m1×m2=-1 (equation for perpendicular lines)

m1×3= -1

m1= -1/3

Pls confirm if its correct

correct me if wrong

thanks! :)

1.) What is the mode of the data ? Show work ( A.3, B.5, C.8, D.10 )
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
Hey there.

1.) The mode is the number that's most frequent in a given list.
In our list, we have 2, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 9, 10.
Our most frequent number is 6; therefore, our mode is 6.

2.) The median is the number in the middle of a list organized from least to greatest.
2, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 9, 10;
4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 9;
4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7;
5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6;
5, 5, 6, 6, 6;
5, 6, 6;
6.
6 is our median.

I hope this helps, despite your answer choices not providing the correct answer.
