What is the solution to -4m-5n=1 and -6m+12n=-18

Mathematics

Afina-wow [57]2 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

-4m -5n = 1 ------------------(1)

-6m +12n = -18--------------(2)

multiplying eq (1) by 3 and (2) by 2

therefore, the new eq obtained is

-12m -15n = 3 --------------(3) subtracting (3) AND

-12m +24n = -36-----------(4) <u>(</u><u>4</u><u>)</u>

(+) (-) (+)

-----------<em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em><em>-</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>3</em><em>9</em><em>n</em> = 39

n= -1 ------------(5)

subtituting (5) in (1)

therefore,

-4m -5×-1 =1

-4m +5=1

-4m=1-5

-4m=-4

m= 1

hence calue of m is 1 and n is -1

maria [59]
Blue beads: 100/130, which reduces to 10/13.
Red beads: 20/130, which reduces to 2/13.

You're just taking the fraction of the certain color of beads compared with the total number of beads, which is 130.

This is my my second to <br>last one, thanks for helping me

Answer:

  • $9
  • Option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations need to match the problem statements. If we let C and S represent the costs of Cherry and Sweet potato pies, respectively, then the revenue from each sale can be expressed as an equation.

  1 cherry and 7 sweet potato for $114   ⇒   C +7S = 114

  14 sweet potato and 11 cherry for $309   ⇒   11C +14S = 309

Note that we have used C and S in the second equation in the same order as they appeared in the first equation, even though the problem statement has that order reversed. This facilitates solving the equations using elimination or Cramer's rule.

These equations match Option 4.

__

The cost of a cherry pie can be found by eliminating S from the equations. We can do that by subtracting twice the first equation from the second:

  (11C +14S) -2(C +7S) = (309) -2(114)

  9C = 81 . . . . . simplify

  C = 9 . . . . . . . divide by 9

The cost of each cherry pie is $9.
