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

Mathematics
1 answer:
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

mina [271]
So if the sandwiches cost $7.75 each and the total was $113.50 that would mean that there were 14 sandwiches bought. So 14 times 7.75 is 108.50.

A rectangular wall has length 3 less than 4 times the width . I wish to put a silver line along the corners of the wall. The lin
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let width = w units

Length = 4w - 3

Cost for lining corners of wall = $ 18.50

Perimeter of the wall = 18.50/0.25 =  74 ft

2*(length  +width ) = 74

2*(4w - 3 + w) =74

2*(5w - 3) =74

10w - 6 = 74   {Add 6 to both sides}

10w - 6 + 6 = 74 + 6

10w = 80

Divide both sides by 10

10w/10 = 80/10

w =  8 ft

Length = 4w - 3 = 4*8 - 3 = 32 - 3

Length = 29 ft

Area of the wall = length * width

                           = 29 * 8

                           =  232 square ft

Cost of painting the wall per square feet = 20 cents = 0.20

Cost of painting 232 square feet = 232 * 0.20

                                                             = $ 46.40

A cone has radius 9 and height 12. A frustum of this cone has height 4.
Rom4ik [11]

The radii of the frustrum bases is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached below, ABC represents the cone cross-section while the BCDE represents frustum cross-section

As given in the figure radius and height of the cone are 9 and 12 respectively

Similarly, the height of the frustum is 4

Hence the height of the complete cone= 4+12= 16 (height of frustum+ height of cone)

We can see that ΔABC is similar to ΔADE

Using the similarity theorem

AC/AE=BC/DE

Substituting the values  

12/16=9/DE

∴ DE= 16*9/12= 12

Hence the radii of the frustum is 12
