Mathematics

Afina-wow [57]3 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

The absolute value of a negative fraction is always greater than 1, true of false?!​
Fantom [35]

Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation: False because zero is negative or positive. The absolute value of any number could also include the absolute value of 0, which would be 0. Thus, the absolute value of any rational number is not always greater than zero, it can be zero as well. However, it is true that the absolute value of any rational number can never be negative.

Rational Number definition: Rationals contain whole numbers, integers, decimals, fractions, basically most numbers or any numbers.
