Answer: one hundred eleven thousandths
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3. The first equation can be multiplied by 3 and the second equation by 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
2 x + 3 y = 25 (1)
-3 x + 4 y = 22 (2)
Multiply equation (1) by 3 and (2) by 2.
3(2x) = 6x
2(-3x) = -6x
When you add the two equations, x will get cancelled last
Its algebra. The original equation is
To solve for a variable, we reverse the order of operations, beginning with addition/subtraction, and then multiplication/division. To remove a number from one side, we must do the opposite to the other side. In this case, to get rid of the -121 we must add 121 to the -164. This gives us -43. Then, to get the x by itself, we must multiply the other side by 3. -43*3=129
When we are doing the opposite of an operation to the other side, we are really reversing the operation and, to keep both sides equal, we must do whatever we have done to one side to the other side. So when we have -121, we add 121 as it equals 0, therefore it is gone. Since a equation must be balanced, we have to do what we did to the other side (adding 121).
The numbers are both equal because, 6.80 is six and eight hundredths, and 6.8 is six and eight tenths. When writing decimals any zero added to the end of the number has no value, 8/10 as a fraction is equal to 80/100 if simplified, so Nicky and Marta wrote equal numbers. :)
I'm assuming that you meant 4x+1=3x?
Subtracting 4x, we get 1=-x. Multiplying by -1, we get x=-1 as the solution.
