The idea is to find a linear combination a_1(5, -6) + a_2(-2, -2) = (-6, 2)
It boils down to a system of equations:
Take the augmented matrix:
<span>[<span><span>5<span>−6</span></span><span><span>−2</span><span>−2</span></span><span><span>−6</span>2</span></span>]</span>
Reduced form:
<span>[<span><span>10</span><span>01</span><span><span>−<span>811</span></span><span>1311</span></span></span>]</span>
-(8/11)*(5, -6) + (13/11)*(-2, -2) = (-6, 2)
<span>Levant traded 270 american dollars and received 3000 Mexican pesos. This means that:
1 Mexican peso = (270 x 1) / (3000) = 0.09$
Therefore,
100 pesos will be worth 100 x 0.09 = 9$
Based on this, he will receive 9$ when exchanging 100 pesos for dollars.</span>
Answer:
$1,320
Step-by-step explanation:
First you divide $2.640 with 2 and tah da
Let's test each alternative :
2 x - 9 y = 38 ( 7,5 ) :
( 2 * 7 ) - ( 9 * 5 ) = 38
14 - 45 = 38
-31 ≠ 38 ( wrong )
( 4 , - 1 ) :
( 2 * 4 ) - ( 9 * ( - 1 ) = 38
8 + 9 = 38
17 ≠ 38 ( wrong )
( 3 , - 3 ) :
2 * ( 3 ) - ( 9 * ( - 3 ) = 38
6 + 27 = 38
33 ≠ 38 ( wrong )
( 1 , - 4 ) :
2* ( 1 ) - 9 * ( - 4 ) = 38
2 + 36 = 38
38 = 38 ( Correct alternative )
( 1 , - 4 ) is correct alternative
