elimination was used to solve a system of equations. one of the intermediate steps led to the equation 2x= 8. which of the follo
wing systems could have led to this equation?
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The step shown indicates that y was eliminated from the equations. For choices A, B, D, this is done by adding the equations together (the y-coefficients are opposites). The result of doing that gives x-terms of 4x, 0x, and 0x, respectively. These x-terms do not match the one given: 2x.
For choice C, the y-term is eliminated by subtracting twice the second equation from the first. Doing that gives ...
(4x +2y) -2(x +y) = (14) -2(3)
4x +2y -2x -2y = 14 -6 . . . . eliminate parentheses
2x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms

equating corresponding value
we get
adjacent=10
hypotenuse=17
perpendicular=x
now
by using Pythagoras law
Hypotenuse ²=perpendicular²+adjacent ²
substituting value
17²=x²+10²
17²-10²=x²
x²=17²-10²
x²=189
doing square root
x=
now
