Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-5/4
Answer:
The first equation must be multiplied by -5 to eliminate x variable by addition
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x - 3 y = 1 (1)
5 x + 4 y = 9 (2)
If the second equation is multiplied by 4
5x+4y=9. ×4
We have,
20x+16y=36 (3)
The first equation should be multiplied by -5 to eliminate x variable by addition
4x-3y=1 × -5
We have
-20x+15y=-5 (4)
Add equation (3) and (4) to eliminate x variable
20x+16y=36
-20x+15y=-5
31y=31
Divide both sides by 31
y=1
Substitute y=1 into equation (1)
4 x - 3 y = 1
4x-3(1)=1
4x-3=1
4x=1+3
4x=4
Divide both sides by 4
x=1

Answer:
4/8
Step-by-step explanation:
3/10 is 0.30 and 4/8 is 0.5
let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then to do away with the denominators, let's multiply both sides by the LCD of all denominators.
