Answer:
$17.60
Step-by-step explanation:
2.50 + 6 = 50
-6
2.50 = 44
44/2.5 = x
x= 17.60
To solve with Elimination:
Write the equations under one another, like this:
2x - y = -1
+ 3x + 4y = 26
Ideally, we would like for one of the variables to be eliminated when we add vertically (straight down). But if we add them as they are this does not happen. We must manipulate one of the equations so that it will happen. Again, you can try to eliminate either x or y. I always look for a term that has a coefficient of 1 (or negative 1). So, let's use that y from the first equation again.
If the coefficient of the y in the other equation is POSITIVE 4, then I need the coefficient from the first equation to be its opposite, NEGATIVE 4. To do this, simply multiply the first equation by 4, this will create MAGIC!
4( 2x - y = -1)
+ 3x + 4y = 26
Be certain to Distribute across the entire first equation, so multiply all three terms by 4.
8x - 4y = -4
+ 3x + 4y = 26
Now add straight down (vertically). The y term will be eliminated.
11x = 22
Divide both sides of the equation by 11.
x = 2
Almost there! Now, substitute the 2 in for x in either of the original equations. Either one will work. I'm gonna use the second equation.
3x + 4y = 26
3(2) + 4y = 26
6 + 4y = 26
Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.
4y = 20
Divide both sides of the equation by 4.
y = 5
That's it! There it is again. Put it all together. If x = 2 and y = 5, then the solution is the ordered pair, (2,5).
3/5x+22=28 (Simplify, get all the whole numbers on one side)
-22 -22
5(3/5x)=(6)5 (Get rid of the fraction by multiplying everything by 5)
3x=30 (Get the variable by itself, divide by 3)
x=10
Answer:
C: 4
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the degree of the polynomial, put the exponents in order from largest to smallest
5x^4-3x^2+2x+1
The degree is the largest power, or in this case, the largest power is 4, so the degree is 4
