Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 13y = 232
12x + 7y = 218
For each choice:
a) The first equation can be multiplied by –13 and the second equation by 7 to eliminate y. So we have
- 65x - 169y = - 3016
84x + 49y = 1526
Can not eliminate x and y.
b) The first equation can be multiplied by 7 and the second equation by 13 to eliminate y. So we have
35x + 91 y = 1624
156x + 91y = 2834
Can not eliminate x and y if we ADD.
<em>(If we subtract, this is Yes)</em>
<em></em>
c) The first equation can be multiplied by –12 and the second equation by 5 to eliminate x.
-60x - 156y = - 2784
60x + 35y = 1090
The answer is YES
d) The first equation can be multiplied by 5 and the second equation by 12 to eliminate x.
25x + 65y = 1160
144x + 84y = 2616
Can not eliminate x and y
The final answer is C
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
x-7y = -49
i) move x to the right-hand side and change its sign
-7y = -49-x
ii) change the signs on both sides of the equation
7y = 49+x
iii) divide both sides of the equation by 7


iv) use the commutative property to reorder the terms
* commutative property: a+b = b+a

Answer:217,000,000,000 (or just plain 217000000000)
Step-by-step explanation:7% is 0.07.
0.07 * 3.1 trillion
Answer:
- 7/30
Step-by-step explanation:
9/10 + g = 2/3
So subtract 9/10 from both sides of the equation to get g = -7/30
