Hey there!
To solve this system of equations, you will need to get one of the terms in both equations to cancel out to zero. If there isn't a term that you can cancel out, you can multiply either or both equations to make that term. There's no wrong way to do this, just as long as you make sure that you double check whether your should add or subtract. This is easier shown than explained, so refer below:
<span> x + y = +1
5x + y = –6
</span>–1(x + y = +1)
5x + y = –6
–x – y = –1
5x + y = –6
You can see that once we combine these equations by adding, the y term will become 0, eliminating it. This is necessary for solving the system, so make sure you do it. Also, remember to distribute the term that you need to to all of the numbers in the equation! After that, just solve for the variable that's still in the equation.
–x – y = –1
+ 5x + y = –6
4x + 0y = –7
4x = –7
x = –1.75
Now, just plug the value we found for x into either one of your equations in the original system as it's presented in your problem.
x + y = 1
–1.75 + y = 1
+1.75 +1.75
y = 2.75
All that's left to do is check your point (–1.75, 2.75). If it's true for both equations, your answer is correct!
–1.75 + 2.75 = 1
<span>5(–1.75) + 2.75 = –6
</span>(–1.75, 2.75) is the solution to your system.
Hope this helped you out! :-)
The answer is 2 2/8 or if it needs to be simplified then it would be 2 1/4.
$29 dollars is the overall change in his account. The reason that this is correct is because if you make a number line -4 is exactly 29 units away from 25.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the order of operations A set of three scores to consists of the values 6, 3, and 2, we are to evaluate the following
1) Σ2X – 2
= 2(6)+2(3)+2(2) – 2
= 12+6+4–2
= 22–2
= 20
2) Σ(2X)² = (2×6)²+(2×3)²+(2×2)²
Σ(2X)² = 12²+6²+4²
Σ(2X)² = 144+36+16
Σ(2X)² = 144+52
Σ(2X)² = 196
Answer:
The value of 7 in 678,901 is 10 times greater than the value of 7 in 67,890
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
we have
678,901
Write in expanded form
678,901=600,000+70,000+8,000+900+1
The value of 7 is 70,000
step 2
we have
67,890
Write in expanded form
67,890=60,000+7,000+800+90
The value of 7 is 7,000
step 3
Divide 70,000 by 7,000
therefore
The value of 7 in 678,901 is 10 times greater than the value of 7 in 67,890
