Answer:
(1, 6 )
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 2y = 17 → (1)
4x + y = 10 → (2)
Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term
- 8x - 2y = - 20 → (3)
Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y
- 3x + 0 = - 3
- 3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x
Substituting into (1)
5(1) + 2y = 17
5 + 2y = 17 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
2y = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = 6
solution is (1, 6 )
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
49
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 7
1 / x^-2
= x^2
= 7^2
= 49
 
        
             
        
        
        
First off 3/9 and 6/9 are already common denominators. In some fractions you would need to find the least common denominator like in a problem like 1/2 + 4/5. Also 3/9 plus 6/9 results in 9/9 and 9/9 equals 1. Most fractions adding it subtracting results in a pan answer as a fraction but in this case it’s a whole number.
