It depends on what variable you are tying to solve for first. Say you are trying to solve for x first and then y on the first problem you wrote.
In substitution you solve one of the equations for example with
6x+2y=-10
2x+2y=-10
you solve 2x+2y=-10 for x
2x+2y=-10
-2y = -2y (what you do to one side of the = you do to the other)
2x=-10-2y (to get the variable by its self you divide the # and the variable)
/2=/2 (-10/2=-5 and -2y/2= -y or -1y, they are the same either way)
x=-5-y
now you put that in your original equation that you didn't solve for:
6(-5-y)+2y=-10 solve for that
-30-6y+2y=-10 combine like terms
-30-4y=-10 get the y alone and to do this you first get the -30 away from it
+30=+30
-4y=20 divide the -4 from each side
/-4=/-4 (20/-4=-5)
y=-5
now the equation you previously solved for x can be solved for y.
x=-5-y
x=-5-(-5) a minus parenthesis negative -(- gives you a positive
-5+5=0
x=0
and now we have solved the problem. x=0 and y=-5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Choose a random fraction less than 1. I will choose 1/4.
1/6 ÷ 1/4 = 1/6 × 4/1 = 4/6 = 2/3
2/3 > 1/6 so this example supports his claim.
Now chose a fraction greater than 1. I will choose 4/3
1/6 ÷ 4/3 = 1/6 * 3/4 = 3/24
3/24 < 1/6 so this contradicts his claim
Answer:
The total compound interest is $3,488.50, I hope I helped explain how to find total compound interest
Step-by-step explanation:
So the formula for this would be:
A = P(1+r/n)^nt
A = the amount of your principal plus interest, which is the total
P = stands for the principal, which is your original amount invested
r = shows the interest rate in decimal form
n = stands for the number of compounding periods
So to solve for the compound interest we would plug in our numbers in replacement for the letters
5/2w=45/36 w=1 over 2 or 1/2
Answer = 7x(4x-1) . Hope it helps.
