Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given system:</u>
- 2x - y = - 2
- 15x - 2y = - 7
<u>Solve by elimination, multiply the first equation by - 2 and add up the equations:</u>
- -2(2x - y) + 15x - 2y = - 2(- 2) - 7
- -4x + 2y + 15x - 2y = 4 - 7
- 11x = - 3
- x = - 3/11
<u>Find the value of y:</u>
- 2( - 3/11) - y = - 2
- -6/11 - y = - 2
- y = 2 - 6/11
- y = 1/11
<u>Solution is:</u>
- <em>None of the answer choices is matching this solution. Something must be wrong with the given equations.</em>
Answer:
39
Step-by-step explanation:
2500/10=250
250 represents how much the elephant can eat in one day. Since they want to know how much the elephant can eat in 1000 days you would multiply 250 and 1000 which leaves you with 250,000 pounds of food.
The elephant can eat 250,000 pounds of food in 10 days. :)
1st equation—x, substitute y:
<span>3x + 2(x + 3) = 16 </span>
<span>3x + 2x + 6 = 16 </span>
<span>5x = 10 </span>
<span>x = 2 </span>
<span>y in the above equation: </span>
<span>= 2 + 3 </span>
<span>= 5 </span>
<span>Answer: x = 2, y = 5</span>
I think it’s B. since it’s on the adjacent & hypotenuse side it makes it cosine, and the correct way to set it up is B i believe. hopefully i’m not wrong because it could also be D
