Answer:
(5, 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
3x - y = 11 → (1)
- 2x - 4y = - 26 → (2)
Multiplying (1) by - 4 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term
- 12x + 4y = - 44 → (3)
Add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
- 14x + 0 = - 70
- 14x = - 70 ( divide both sides by - 14 )
x = 5
Substitute x = 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (1)
3(5) - y = 11
15 - y = 11 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
- y = - 4 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
y = 4
solution is (5, 4 )
Well if her simplifies 1 3/7 to 1 1/2 and 5 4/5 to 6 then he would be overestimating because 1 1/2 is greater than 1 3/7 and 6 is greater than 5 4/5
Hope this helps!
