To find the perfect square needed, you take the "middle" value and half it, then square it. so in this case, take -6, half it into 3, and square it to get 9. you'll be adding 9 to both sides
Solution of (6x + 2.4): 3 ⁵/₉ = 2.25 : ¹/₃ is 3.6
Further explanation
Order of Operations in Mathematics follow the following rule :
Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication and Division
Addition and Subtraction
This rule is known as the PEMDAS method.
In working on a mathematical problem, we first calculate an operation that is in parentheses, followed by exponentiation, then multiplication or division, and finally addition or subtraction.
Answer:
x=103/265 y=18/53
Step-by-step explanation:
5x -9y=1-----------(i)
-7x+2y=-5-----------(ii)
Multiplying eq 1 with 7 gives
35x-63y=7---------eq(iii)
Multiplying eq 2 with 5 gives
-35x+10y=-25--------eq(iv)
adding eq 3 qnd eq 4
35x-63y-35x+10y=7-25
-53y=-18
y=18/53--------eq5
Putting the value of y from eq 5 in eq 1
5x-9(18/53)=-5
5x- 162/53=-5
5x=-5 +162/53
5x= -265+162/53
5x=103/53
x=103/265
Answer:
the answer should be 2 but it could be wrong
