Elodia [21]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 5, y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5y = 0 --- Equation 1

Equation 1×3: <u>6x</u> + 15y = 0 --- Equation 2

3x - 4y = 23 --- Equation 3

Equation 3×2: <u>6x</u> - 8y = 46 --- Equation 3

<em>We will be eliminating 6x from Equation 2. </em>

Equation 3-2: 6x - 8y - 6x - 15y = 46-0

-23y = 46

y = 46 ÷ -23

<u>y = -2 </u>

Substitute y = -2 into Equation 1:

2x + 5y = 0

2x + 5(-2) = 0

2x + (-10) = 0

2x - 10 = 0

2x = 10

x = 10 ÷ 2

<u>x = 5 </u>

A zookeeper is monitoring the population of gazelles. The herd needs three times more males than females to thrive, and the zoo
avanturin [10]

Answer:

0 < x ≤ 12 and 0 < y ≤ 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,  x represents the number of female gazelles and y represents  the number of male gazelles.

The zoo only has room for 12 female gazelles.

∵ The number of rooms must be more than or equal to the total female gazelles ,

12 ≥ x

Also, number of animals can not be negative,

And, it must be greater than 0.

⇒ 0 < x ≤ 12,

⇒ 3(0) < 3x ≤ 3(12)

⇒ 0 < 3x ≤ 36

∵ Number of males gazelles = 3 × number of female gazelles

⇒ y = 3x

⇒ 0 < y ≤ 36

Hence, the constraints to represent a thriving population of gazelles at the zoo are,

0 < x ≤ 12,

0 < y ≤ 36
