b both pairs of opposite sides are parallel
if there are 300 raffle tickets and one raffle ticket is drawn, the proabability of drawing the next one is 1 in 299 because there is one less ticket from the previous win
For the first one it’s subtraction property of equality
If these triangles are congruent, then side RS is congruent to side TV and that means that y = 4 - x. If y = 4-x, we can sub that into the next equation where side RV = side ST and 1 = 4x - y. If y = 4-x, we sub in accordingly to get 1 =4x - (4 - x). That simplifies to 1 = 4x - 4 + x which is, combining like terms, 5 = 5x. That means that x = 1. If x = 1, and y = 4 - x, then y = 4 - 1 and y = 3. There you go!
Using linear combination method to solve the system of equations 3x - 8y = 7 and x + 2y = -7 is (x, y) = (-3, -2)
<h3><u>
Solution:</u></h3>
Given that, a system of equations are:
3x – 8y = 7 ⇒ (1) and x + 2y = - 7 ⇒ (2)
We have to solve the system of equations using linear combination method and find their solution.
Linear combination is the process of adding two algebraic equations so that one of the variables is eliminated. Addition or subtraction can be used to perform a linear combination.
Now, let us multiply equation (2) with 4 so that y coefficients will be equal numerically.
4x + 8y = -28 ⇒ (3)
Now, add (1) and (3)
3x – 8y = 7
4x + 8y = - 28
----------------
7x + 0 = - 21
7x = -21
x = - 3
Now, substitute "x" value in (2)
(2) ⇒ -3 + 2y = - 7
2y = 3 – 7
2y = - 4
y = -2
Hence, the solution for the given two system of equations is (-3, -2)
