Answer D The binomial must start at 0, but can increase to an infinite upper limit. Hope that helps.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Multiply one of the equations so that both equations share a common complementary coefficient.
In order to solve using the elimination method, you need to have a matching coefficient that will cancel out a variable when you add the equations together. For the 2 equations given, you have a huge number of choices. I'll just mention a few of them.
You can multiply the 1st equation by -2/5 to allow cancelling the a term.
You can multiply the 1st equation by 5/3 to allow cancelling the b term.
You can multiply the 2nd equation by -2.5 to allow cancelling the a term.
You can multiply the 2nd equation by 3/5 to allow cancelling the b term.
You can even multiply both equations.
For instance, multiply the 1st equation by 5 and the second by 3. And in fact, let's do that.
5a + 3b = –9
2a – 5b = –16
5*(5a + 3b = -9) = 25a + 15b = -45
3*(2a - 5b = -16) = 6a - 15b = -48
Then add the equations
25a + 15b = -45
6a - 15b = -48
=
31a = -93
a = -3
And then plug in the discovered value of a into one of the original equations and solve for b.</span>
The answer is 1/4 x - 3 = 12
Answer:
<u><em>Answer is below</em></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>10=3x-8</em></u>
<u><em>always remember to flip the equation</em></u>
<u><em>3x-8=10</em></u>
<u><em>Add 8 to both sides</em></u>
<u><em>3x-8(+8)=10(+8)</em></u>
<u><em>3x=18</em></u>
<u><em>Divide both sides by 3</em></u>
<u><em>3x/3=18/3</em></u>
<u><em>x=6</em></u>
