The answer is 16, you substitute the value of the variable into the equation and simplify
<span>F=father's weight
.
0.5F+10kg=48kg
0.5F=38kg
F=76kg
ANSWER: His father's weight is 76 kg.</span>
For this case, what we are going to do is use the following property:
Multiply an equation by a scalar.
In this case, the scalar will be:
k = -2
We have then that equation 2 will be:
k * (4x + y) = k * 1
-2 * (4x + y) = - 2 * 1
-8x-2y = -2
Answer:
The property that justifies this manipulation is:
Multiply an equation by a scalar.
