How to solve the system of equation 500y-600x=2800 , 400y-400x=2400 by elimination

tatiyna

Answer:

$x=2$ and $y=8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Equation 1:

$500y-600x=2800$

Simplifying the above equation by dividing both sides by 100

$\frac{500y-600x}{100}=\frac{2800}{100}$

$\frac{500y}{100}-\frac{600x}{100}=28\\\\5y-6x=28$

Equation 2:

$400y-400x=2400$

Simplifying the above equation by dividing both sides by 400.

$\frac{400y-400x}{400}=\frac{2400}{400}$

$\frac{400y}{400}-\frac{400x}{400}=6\\\\y-x=6$

Now the system of equation is:

(1a) $5y-6x=28$

(2a) $y-x=6$

Solving by elimination

Multiplying equation (2a) with $-5$

$-5(y-x)=-5\times 6$

(2b) $-5y+5x=-30$

Adding equations (1a) and (2b) in order to eliminate $y$

$5y-6x=28$

+ $-5y+5x=-30$

We get $-x=-2$

∴ $x=2$

Plugging $x=2$ in equation (2a).

$y-2=6$

Adding $2$ both sides.

$y-2+2=6+2$

∴ $y=8$

Enny’s mother is 5 years older than twice Jenny's age. The sum of their ages is 62 years. This is represented by the equation x

pickupchik [31]

X + 2x + 5 = 62 which can be turned into.
3x + 5 = 62
-5 -5 now we subtract 5 from each side
3x = 57
/3 /3 now we divide 3 from each side to get...
x = 19.
Now to check 19 + (2 x 19) + 5 does in fact equal 62. Jenny is 19 years old. Hope this helped.

Kameron walks 3 miles in 18 minutes.how many can kameron walk in 120 minutes

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

start by dividing 18 from 120(to find the amount of 18's in 120)

120 / 18 = 6.6

meaning there are 6.6 sets of 18 in 120

multiply 3 by 6.6(since there's 3 miles for every 18 minutes)

3 x 6.6 = 20
