Solve by elimination using subtraction. 2x + y = -5 2x - 5y = 13

Mathematics

Answer:

(- 1, - 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + y = - 5 → (1)

2x - 5y = 13 → (2)

Subtracting (1) from (2) term by term will eliminate the x-0 term

0 - 5y - y = 13 - (- 5) , that is

- 6y = 18 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

y = - 3

Substitute y = - 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

2x - 3 = - 5 ( add 3 to both sides )

2x = - 2 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 1

solution is (- 1, - 3 )

Autumn is working two summer jobs making $16 per hour tutoring and making $12 per hour landscaping.In a giving week she can work
Darya [45]

Answer:

{13,14}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> number of hours per week of tutoring

y ----> number of hours per week of landscaping

we know that

She can work no more than 17 hours

so

x+y\leq 17 -----> inequality A

She must earn at lest $240

The term " at least" means, "greater than or equal to"

16x+12y\geq 240 ----> inequality B

If Autumn worked 3 hours landscaping

then

y=3\ hours

substitute in the inequality A and in the inequality B

<em>Inequality A</em>

x+3\leq 17\\x \leq 17-3\\x\leq 14\ hours

Inequality B

16x+12(3)\geq 240\\16x\geq 240-36\\x\geq 12.75\ hours

The solution of the system is the interval {12.75,14]

All possible values for the number of whole hours tutoring that she must work to meet her requirements are

{13,14}

What is the solution to the linear equation?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

the solution of linear equation 4b + 6 = 2 - 6 + 4 is b = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the linear equation

4b + 6 = 2 - 6 +4

Adding constants

4b + 6 = 0

Adding -6 on both sides

4b + 6 -6 = 0 -6

4b = -6

Dividing with 4 on both sides

4b/4 = -6/4

b = -2

So, the solution of linear equation 4b + 6 = 2 - 6 + 4 is b = -2
