PLEASE PLEASE HELP SOLVE THE EQUATION USING ELIMINATION 3x+8y=-5 -2x+2y=18

Mathematics
1 answer:
frosja888 [35]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+8y=-5

-2x+2y=18

Ok, so you want to get either x or y to cancel out so lets multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 3.

6x+16y=-10

-6x+6y=54

Now x can cancel out. The new equation is:

22y=44

y=2

Now you input 2 into one of the original problems.

-2x+2(2)=18

-2x+4=18

Now subtract 4 from both sides.

-2x=14

Divide

x=-7

Now check your answer.

-2(-7)+2(2)=18

14+4=18

a rectangle has an area that is represented by 9x²-4. the length of the rectangle is 3x-2. what is the width?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Step-by-step explanation:

the area is

length × width

(3x - 2) × width = 9x² - 4

to find width we could do a real polynomial division or simply recognize the fact that

(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

and we see that in our area calculation we are missing the (a + b) factor.

so, width = (3x + 2)

but if you want the division :

9x² - 4 : 3x - 2 = 3x + 2

- 9x² - 6x

-----------------

0 6x - 4

- 6x - 4

----------------------

0 0

again, width = (3x + 2)
