Simultaneous Equations
2u + b = $110
4u + 3b = $268
(x2) 4u + 2b = $220
(x1) 4u + 3b = $268
<em />If both the matching coefficients are the same, we subtract equation 2 from equation 1
2b - 3b = -b
$220 - $268 = $-48
-b = -$48
b = $48
If you want to find out what a unicycle costs...
Substitute b = $48 into the first equation
2u + $48 = $110
Balance the equation, whatever happens on one side, happens on the other.
2u + $48 (-$48) = $110 (-$48)
2u = $62
2u(/2) = $62(/2)
u = $31
Answer:
A is the only solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
A simple way to solve it is to plug in the x and y values
For A, we plug in 2 for x and 3 for y
3-3=5(2-2)
0=5(0)
0=0
Ordered pair A is a solution
For B, plug in 3 for x and 2 for y
2-3=5(3-2)
-1=5(1)
-1 does not equal 5
Therefore only A is a solution
1/2*3*4=6
Explanation:
The height is 3 cm and the base is 4cm.
I believe 5 is there to trick you. The bottom Is always the base and the straight line going vertically is always the height.
1/2*3*4=6
