P-23=-3
+23 +23
P=20
so the answer is A
5x + y = 9....multiply by 7
10x - 7y = -18
----------------
35x + 7y = 63 (result of multiplying by 7)
10x - 7y = -18
----------------add
45x = 45
x = 45/45
x = 1
5x + y = 9
5(1) + y = 9
5 + y = 9
y = 9 - 5
y = 4
solution is : (1,4)
=========================
-4x + 9y = 9
x - 3y = -6 ....multiply by 4
----------------
-4x + 9y = 9
4x - 12y = -24 (result of multiplying by 4)
---------------add
- 3y = - 15
y = -15/-3
y = 5
x - 3y = -6
x - 3(5) = -6
x - 15 = -6
x = -6 + 15
x = 9
solution is : (9,5)
Yes they are the both equal 5.25 when divided
Answer:
I'm not sure but I believe the correct answer is line L2.
Step-by-step explanation:
It seems to be closer to more points than the other lines.
If it is not L2, it must be L3.
If you would like to solve the system of equations, you can do this using the following steps:
5p - 3r = 1 /*2
8p + 6r = 4
__________
10p - 6r = 2
<span>8p + 6r = 4
</span>__________
10p - 6r + 8p + 6r = 2 + 4
18p = 6
p = 6/18
p = 1/3
<span>5p - 3r = 1
</span>5 * 1/3 - 3r = 1
5/3 - 3r = 1
5/3 - 1 = 3r
5/3 - 3/3 = 3r
2/3 = 3r
r = 2/9
(p, r) = (1/3, 2/9)
The correct result would be <span>(1/3, 2/9)</span>.
