Unreduced fractions are fractions that aren't simplified all the way.
Like 2/6.
It can be simplified to 1/3, so it's an unreduced fraction.
Answer:
1.) (11, -7/3), 2.) No solution. 3.) (1, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
1.)
2x + 3y = 15
x - 3y = 18
Solve...use elimination method
2x + x + 3y - 3y = 15 + 18
3x = 33
x =11
11 - 3y = 18
-3y = 7
y = -7/3
(11, -7/3)
---------------------------------------
2.) y = 4x + 4
y = 4x - 4
Use substitution.
4x + 4 = 4x - 4
4 = -4 FALSE NO Solution
3.) y = 5- 2x
4x + 3y = 13
Can use elimination method
2y = 10 - 4x
add it to 4x + 3y = 13
10 + 3y = 2y + 13
y = 3
3 = 5 - 2x
x = 1
(1, 3)
Answer: the speed of the current is 9 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the current.
A boat can travel 21 mph in still water. If it travels 270 miles with the current. It means that the total speed with which the boat travelled with the current is (21 + x) mph.
Time = distance/speed
Time spent by the boat in travelling 270 miles is
270/(21 + x)
In the same length of time, it travels 108 miles against the current. It means that the total speed with which the boat travelled against the current is (21 - x) mph.
Time = distance/speed
Time spent by the boat in travelling 108 miles is
108/(21 - x)
Since the time is the same, then
270/(21 + x) = 108/(21 - x)
270(21 - x) = 108(21 + x)
5670 - 270x = 2268 - 108x
108x + 270x = 5670 - 2268
378x = 3402
x = 3402/378
x = 9
Answer: ab+a-b
ab+ac-a2
CLT( collect like terms)
ab+a2+ac-bc
ab+a-b.
Hope this is correct
