A two digit number has a tens digit and a ones digit.
Let's say x = tens digit and y = ones digit
"The sum of the digits is 5"
x + y = 5
The next phrase is "the number multiplied by 3 is 42" but we need to represent the number using the digits. So they need to be multiplied first by their place value and added together. [Example: 34 = 3(10) + 4(1)]
The number is: 10x + y
3(10x + y) = 42
The system of equations: (two equations for two unknowns)
x + y = 5
30x + 3y = 42
Then you can use substitution or elimination to combine and solve.
I'll use elimination, multiply the entire top equation by -3 and add the equations together. y will cancel out
-3x - 3y = -15
30x + 3y = 42
------------------
27x + 0 = 27
x = 1
then plug x = 1 into either equation to find y
1 + y = 5
y = 4
remember the x and y represent digits so the number xy is 14
Answer:
15.12
Step-by-step explanation:
3.6 x 4.2
first aline the decmials like you would regularly do to multiply.
Then multiply 2 x 6=12 and then 2 x 3=6 and put them down were you would already do noramly multiplying.
and then muliply 4x6=24 and 4x3=12 and do the same thing as you would do normaly and then add 72 and 144 to get 1512 and then count your decmail placing. which is 2 placeing in total which makes 1512 into 15.12
and now you done!
Example of how it should look...
3 . 6
× 4 . 2
+ 7 . 2
+ 1 4 4
= 1 5 1 2
1.6 × 10 to the negative sixth power "10 -6".
Answer:
Substituting for a Variable
If you know the value that the variable is equal to, you can substitute that value in for the variable in the expression! Let's look at an example. Since we know that x=5, we can directly substitute or replace the x in the expression x+3 with a 5 to solve for y!
