Solve the system by using the elimination method.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Inessa05 [86]3 years ago

Answer:

(8, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

5x - 5y = 20 → (1)

- 3x + 5y = - 4 → (2)

Add the 2 equations term by term to eliminate the y- term

2x + 0 = 16

2x = 16 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 8

Substitute x = 8 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (2)

- 3(8) + 5y = - 4

- 24 + 5y = - 4 ( add 24 to both sides )

5y = 20 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 4

solution is (8, 4 )

Is choosing 5 players to represent the team at a fundraiser a permutation or a combination?
Lelu [443]
A permutation, since once you choose one member to be in the team, that same person cannot be chosen again. A combination requires us to be able to freely choose the same item in a set as many times as we may wish. A permutation restricts the amount of times we can choose an item in a set.
