Help help help please using the elimination solve this​

Mathematics
1 answer:
serious [3.7K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a = 15

b = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to solve by elimination

let us start by rewriting the first equation

We can do this by multiplying through by 10

We have this as;

2a -5b = 100

Now let us eliminate

Multiply equation ii by 2 and equation i by 1

2a -5b = 100

2a-2b = 58

Subtract equation ii from i

-3b = 42

b = 42/-3 = -14

Secondly;

Multiply equation ii by 5 and i by 1

2a - 5b = 100

5a -5b = 145

Subtract ii from i

-3a = -45

a = 45/3

a = 15

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can actually make the two equal each other like so:

3d-4=12d/6

Multiply both sides by 6:

18d-24=12d

Add 24 to both sides:

18d=12d+24

Subtract 12d from both sides:

6d=24

Divide by 6:

d=4

A study samples 100 cat owners and finds that 98 of them really dislike dogs. What inference can be drawn? A) 98% of all pet own
OverLord2011 [107]
Assuming the 100 people sampled are representative of the population as a whole, the answer is choice B. Most people who own a cat would dislike dogs according to the survey. We can only talk about cat owners since the 100 people selected are cat owners. We can't say anything about pet owners in general.
