Can you help me solve systems of equations by elimination step by step<br> -5x+9y=-12<br> 3x+2y=22
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

First solve -5x+9y=-12 for x:


-5x+9y=-12

-5x+9y-9y=-12-9y

-5x=-12-9

-5x=-9-12

-5x/-5=-9/5-12/-5

x=9/5y+12/6


Substitute x into an equation


3(-9/5y+12/6)+2y=22

37/5y+36/5=22

37/5y+36/5-36/5=22-36/5

37/5y=74/5

37/5y/37/5=74/5/37/5

y=2


Substitute y in x=-9/5y+12/6


9/5(2)+12/6

x=6


Solution Set: (6,2)

The scale on a map indicates that 1 inch represents 10 miles. If two cities are 2 3 4 inches apart on a map, how many miles apar
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2340 miles

Given

1 inch represents 10 miles

thus,

1 inch on map = 10 miles in real

given the two cities are 234 inches apart on map

1 inch on map = 10 miles in real

multiplying both side by 234

1 inch*234 on map = 10 miles*234 in real

234 inch on map = 2340 miles in real.

Thus, two cities are 2340 miles apart.
