Solve by elimination.
The goal is to cancel out one of the variables in order to easily solve for the other variable.
Do this by changing the equations so that the coefficients of either x or y add up to 0.
Notice the coefficients of y are 3 and 3, if we make one of them negative then they add up to 0. 3+ (-3) = 0
Multiply 2nd equation by -1.
6x +3y = 9
-2x -3y = -1
__________
4x +0y = 8
Solve for x
4x = 8
x = 8/4 = 2
Plug x=2 back into one of original equations to find y.
---> 2(2) + 3y = 1
---> 4 + 3y = 1
---> 3y = -3
---> y = -1
Therefore solution is (2,-1)
Option C is correct because it is a trinomial with a leading coefficient of 3 and a constant term of -5
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to pick the expression that matches this description:
A trinomial with a leading coefficient of 3 and a constant term of -5
First lets explain the terms:
Trinomial: a polynomial having 3 terms
Leading coefficient: The constant value of variable having highest power
Constant term: Having no variable and value cannot be changed.
Now using these definitions, we can choose the correct option
Option A is incorrect because the expression has 2 terms
Option B is incorrect because it is a trinomial but the leading coefficient is -5 and not 3 constant term is 3 and not -5.
Option C is correct because it is a trinomial with a leading coefficient of 3 and a constant term of -5
Option D is incorrect because it is a trinomial but the leading coefficient is 3 but constant term is 1 and not -5.
So, Option C is correct.
