Answer:

A. System C simplifies to 2x - 3y = 4 and 4x - y = 54 by dividing the second equation by three (3).

B. Systems A and C have the same solutions.

C. Systems A and B have different solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following system of equations;

<em><u>System A</u></em>

2x - 3y = 4  .....equation 1

4x - y = 18  .......equation 2

We would solve the above equations using the elimination method;

Multiplying eqn 1 by 2;

2*(2x) - 2*(3y) = 4*2

4x - 6y = 8  ...... equation 3

Subtracting eqn 2 from eqn 3;

(4x - 4x) + (-6y - (-y)) = 8 - 18

0 + (-6y + y) = -10

-5y = -10

5y = 10

y = \frac {10}{5}

y = 2

To find the value of x;

2x - 3y = 4

2x - 3(2) = 4

2x - 6 = 4

2x = 4 + 6

2x = 10

x = \frac {10}{2}

x = 5

<em><u>Solutions (x, y) = (5, 2)</u></em>

<u><em>System B</em></u>

3x - 4y = 5  ..... equation 1

y = 5x + 3  ..... equation 2

We would solve the equations using substitution method;

Substituting eqn 2 into eqn 1, we have;

3x - 4(5x + 3) = 5

3x - 20x - 12 = 5

-17x - 12 = 5

-17x = 12 + 5

-17x = 17

x = \frac {-17}{17}

x = -1

To find the value of y;

y = 5x + 3

y = 5(-1) + 3

y = -5 + 3

y = -2

<u><em>Solutions (x, y) = (-1, -2)</em></u>

<u><em>System C</em></u>

2x - 3y = 4  ..... equation 1

12x - 3y = 54  ...... equation 2

We would solve the above equations using the elimination method;

Subtracting eqn 2 from eqn 1;

(2x - 12x) + (-3y -(-3y)) = 4 - 54

-10x + (-3y + 3y) = -50

-10x + 0 = -50

-10x = -50

10x = 50

x = \frac {50}{10}

x = 5

To find the value of y;

2x - 3y = 4

2(5) - 3y = 4

10 - 3y = 4

3y = 10 - 4

3y = 6

y = \frac {6}{3}

y = 2

<u><em>Solutions (x, y) = (5, 2)</em></u>

Find the area of the shaded region in the simplest form
balandron [24]

Answer:

A = 24t² + 2t

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded area (A) is calculated as

A = area of outer square - area of rectangle

   = (5t)² - t(t - 2)

   = 25t² - t² + 2t

    = 24t² + 2t
