For
solving system of equations, we can use either substitution where we plug one
equation into the other, or elimination where we combine the equations.
-
Using elimination,
you would to eliminate one variable from both equations, so you automatically would
get one equation with one variable!
- Using
substitution
means you are going to solve one equation for one variable and substitute with
its value in the other equation in order to get also an equation with one
variable.
Let's take an example ...
y+x=2 and y-2x = 1
<span>Using <span>elimination, we need to subtract these two equation; one from the other...
y+x=2
-
y-2x=1
-----------
0+3x=1
then
x=1/3 and then substitute into any equation to get y-value</span></span>
y+x=2
y+1/3 = 2 >>>>>
y=5/3NOW...<span>Using substitution
</span>y+x=2 and y-2x = 1 >>(y=1+2x)
Plug (y=1+2x) into y+x=2 and solve for x
y+x=2
(1+2x) + x =2
1+3x = 2
3x=1
again (and for sure)
x = 1/3plug in x=1/3 into any of the equations above to get y:
y+x=2
y+1/3=2
y=5/3DOne !!!!!!
I hope you got
the idea

Answer:
449,100 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
.2% as a decimal is 0.002. To find .2% of 450,000, you multiply it. The answer is 900 pounds. Because it is losing that amount, you subtract it. 450,000-900= 449,100 pounds
For this question, it would be most effective to use an algebraic expression to more easily show what the question is asking. If we use the variable "k" to show the distance in km that he cycled on Sunday, we know that the amount he cycled on Saturday equals k + 12, and the amount that he cycled on the weekend should be the amount of Saturday plus the amount of Sunday. If we write this as an equation we say:
k + k + 12 = 38
=> 2k + 12 = 38
Now we can just rearrange and solve for k:
=> 2k = 26
=> k = 26/2 = 13
Therefore Patrick cycled 13km on Sunday
To solve the answer, we just add 12km to the value for Sunday like so:
12 + 13 = the amount he cycled on Sunday
Hope this helped, remember to please try and understand the maths as well as the answer :))
Answer: Decompose means the opposite, to take apart. In this lesson, the words composition and decomposition are used to describe how irregular figures can be separated into triangles and other polygons. The area of these parts can then be added together to calculate the area of the whole figure.
