Answer:

  • (2x-12)=56
  • 2x = 56 + 12
  • 2x = 68
  • x = 68/2
  • x = 34

Verification:

  • (2×34-12)=56
  • 68-12=56
  • 56=56

Hence verified ✅

hope it's helps you

Answer:X=4

Step-by-step explanation: you add 12 to both sides which should get you 2x=68 and then divide both sides by 2 which should get you X=4

Solve the following systems by Elimination
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

The solutions for both system of equations are as follows:

  1. (5,2)
  2. (2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first set of equations is:

4x+6y=32\\3x-6y=3\\

It can clearly be seen that the coefficients of y are already same in magnitude with different signs so we have to add both equations

So adding both equations, we get

4x+6y+3x-6y = 32+3\\7x = 35\\\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{35}{7}\\x = 5

Putting x=5 in equation 1

4(5)+6y = 32\\20+6y = 32\\6y = 32-20\\6y = 12\\\frac{6y}{6} = \frac{12}{6}\\y = 2

The solution is (5,2)

The second set of simultaneous equations is:

-3x+5y=-113x+7y=-1

We can see that the coefficients of x in both equations are same in magnitude with opposite signs so

Adding both equations

-3x+5y+3x+7y = -11-1\\12y = -12\\\frac{12y}{12} = \frac{-12}{12}\\y = -1

Putting y= -1 in first equation

-3x+5(-1)=-11\\-3x-5=-11\\-3x=-11+5\\-3x=-6\\\frac{-3x}{-3} = \frac{-6}{-3}\\x = 2

The solution is: (2,-1)

Hence,

The solutions for both system of equations are as follows:

  1. (5,2)
  2. (2,-1)

Which of the following equations represents a line that is parallel to the line 3x - 2y = 12
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12=3x-2y

2y+12=3x

2y=3x-12

y=(3x-12)/2

y=mx+b

To be parallel to the line above our line must have the same slope or m. The above line has a slope of 3/2 or 1.5 so the parallel line will be

y=1.5x+b, using point (7,10) we can solve for the y intercept or b

10=1.5(7)+b

10=10.5+b

b=-0.5 so our line is

y=1.5x-0.5

Wyatt is going to a carnival that has games and rides. Each game costs $1. 25 and each ride costs $2. 75. Wyatt spent $20. 25 al
Nonamiya [84]

In the carnival the number of games number of rides Wyatt went on is 3 and 6 respectively.

<h3>What is system of equation?</h3>

A system of equation is the set of equation in which the finite set of equation is present for which the common solution is sought.

The number of unknown objects can be find using the system of solution.

Given information-

The cost of each game is $1.25.

The cost of each ride is $2.75.

Total amount of money spent by the Wyatt is $20.25.

The number of rides he went on is twice the number of games he played.

Suppose the number of games Wyatt played is x and the number of rides he went in the carnival is <em>y. </em>

As, the number of rides he went on is twice the number of games he played. Thus,

y=2x

Let the above equation as equation one.

As total amount of money spent by the Wyatt is $20.25 and The cost of each game is $1.25 and the cost of each ride is $2.75. Thus,

1.25x+2.75y=20.25\\

Put the value of y in the above equation from the equation one as,

1.25x+2.75(2x)=20.25\\1.25x+5.5x=20.25\\6.75x=20.25\\x=3

Thus the number of games he played is 3.

Put this value of <em>x </em>in the equation one as,

y=2\times3\\y=6

Thus the number rides Wyatt went on is 6.

Hence, In the carnival the number of games number of rides, Wyatt went on is 3 and 6 respectively.
