For
solving system of equations, we can use either substitution where we plug one
equation into the other, or elimination where we combine the equations.
-
Using elimination,
you would to eliminate one variable from both equations, so you automatically would
get one equation with one variable!
- Using
substitution
means you are going to solve one equation for one variable and substitute with
its value in the other equation in order to get also an equation with one
variable.
Let's take an example ...
y+x=2 and y-2x = 1
<span>Using <span>elimination, we need to subtract these two equation; one from the other...
y+x=2
-
y-2x=1
-----------
0+3x=1
then
x=1/3 and then substitute into any equation to get y-value</span></span>
y+x=2
y+1/3 = 2 >>>>>
y=5/3NOW...<span>Using substitution
</span>y+x=2 and y-2x = 1 >>(y=1+2x)
Plug (y=1+2x) into y+x=2 and solve for x
y+x=2
(1+2x) + x =2
1+3x = 2
3x=1
again (and for sure)
x = 1/3plug in x=1/3 into any of the equations above to get y:
y+x=2
y+1/3=2
y=5/3DOne !!!!!!
I hope you got
the idea

Step-by-step explanation:
1 kg = 2.2 pounds
0.45 kg = 1 pounds to see whether it's correct or not we can cross multiply the given equations
multiply 1 kg with 1 pounds and 0.45 kg with 2.2 pounds then check if they are equal
1 × 1 = 2.2 × 0.45
1 = 0.99 as you can see this is not an equality therefore the statement is wrong.
a) P = 2(l+w) Sadie
P =2l+2w Eric
b) Sadie : P = 2(30+75) = 2(105) = 210
Eric: P = 2(30) +2(75) = 60+150 =210
Answer:
2.4 (2 2/5) pieces of pie per person.
Step-by-step explanation:
All that is needed to be done is simple division. Take your pieces of pie, (12) and divided it by the amount of people (5). This will give you 2.4. This can be turned into 24/10, and can be simplified twice. First to 12/5, then to 2 2/5.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
15 pound in a bag
Step-by-step explanation:
one can= 8 oz
one bag= 30 times the amount in a can
8 oz x 30 = 240 oz in a bag
Question asked how many pound is in one bag of dog food:
We know that 16 oz = 1 pound
240 oz = x pound
To find x pound we divide 240 oz by 16 oz-->
240 oz/ 16 oz = 15 pound
