Solve: simultaneous equations 3x + 4y = 27 x + 4y = 17

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leni [432]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 5, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Elimination method: (I will be eliminating 4y) </u>

3x + 4y = 27 --- Equation 1

x + 4y = 17 --- Equation 2

Equation 1-2: 3x + 4y - x - 4y = 27 - 17

2x = 10

x = 10 ÷ 2

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into Equation 2:

x + 4y = 17

4y + 5 = 17

4y = 17 - 5

    = 12

y = 12 ÷ 4

y = 3

Select all expressions that are equivalent to 2( - 2x + 5) +x
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

2) -3x+10

4) -4x+10+x

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property to get rid of the parentheses.

(2 × -2x) + (2 × 5) + x

-4x + 10 +x is correct, but the x's can be combined.

(-4x + x) + 10 = -3x + 10

marta [7]

Answer:

2.20752 x 10^{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you have to do is to look for the number of seconds in one year. You have to multiply 365 days by 86,400 seconds.

  • 365 days refer to the total number of days per year
  • 86,400 seconds refer to the number of seconds per day

Let's solve.

  • 365 x 86,400 = 31,536,000 or 3.1536 x 10^{7}

<em>Therefore, one year has 3.1536 x </em>10^{7}<em> seconds.</em>

Next, you have to know the number of seconds in 10 billion years.

  • (3.1536 x 10^{7}) x  (1.0 x 10^{10}) = 3.1536 x 10^{17}

The last step is to multiply the number of seconds in 10 billion years to 7 million tons of mass per second.

  • (3.1536 x 10^{17}) x 7,000,000 = 2.20752 x 10^{24}
