A/c = 8.....a = 8c
a * c = 2 ...a = 2/c
a/b = -16 ...a = -16b
a * b = -1....
b/c = -0.5
2/c = 8c
2 = 8c^2
1/4 = c^2
sqrt 1/4 = c
0.5 (or 1/2) = c <===
a * c = 2
0.5a = 2
a = 2/0.5
a = 4 <===
a = -16b
4 = -16b
4/-16 = b
-1/4 (or - 0.25) = b <===
Answer:
(p,r) = (1/3, 2/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to solve a system of equations
We can rewrite the second equation by dividing through by 2
So we have;
4p + 3r = 2
and
5p - 3r = 1
Add both equations:
9p = 3
p = 3/9
p = 1/3
Recall ;
5p - 3r = 1
3r = 5p - 1
Substitute the value or p here
3r = 5(1/3)-1
3r = 5/3 - 1
3r = 2/3
r = 2/9
So we have the solution set as;
(p,r) = (1/3 , 2/9)
2/3x - 1/2y = 3 |multiply both sides by 6
4x - 3y = 18
1/2x + y = 5 |multiply both sides by 2
x + 2y = 10
Answer: 4x - 3y and x + 2y = 10.
