Normally I'd love to help, but put in a picture. I'm confused.
Answer:
<u></u>
Explanation:
The complete question is:
<em>Between the time iko woke up and lunchtime, the temperature rose by 11º. Then by the time he went to bed, the temperature dropped by 14º.</em>
<em />
<em>Write an addition expression for the temperature relative to when iko woke up. </em>
<em />
<h2>Solution</h2>
It is said that between the time Iko woke up and lunchtime, the temperature rose by 11 degrees. A rise means the temperature increased and you must add 11º.
Then, relative to when Iko woke up the temperature is:
Then, by the time Iko went to bed, the temperature dropped by 14º. A drop means that the change is negative. This means that you must add a negative number, and the additive expression is:
If you want the overall change in temperature you do the operation:
- 11 + (-14) = 11 - 14 = - 3. A net decrease of 3º.
But the answer to this question is the additive expression:
Can you show the multiple choice one
Answer:
<u><em>For x - y = 2</em></u>
You need to find x or y in one of the equations and then substitute that into the other.
So we have;
x-y=2
4x-3y=11
We will take the first equation and find x;
x-y=2
add y to both sides;
x-y+y=2+y
x=2+y
Now we take that answer and substitute it forx in the other equation;
4(2+y)-3y=11
8+4y-3y=11
8+y=11
y=3
Now we have what y equals, so we use it in the first equation to find x;
x-3=2
x=5
So we have;
x=5; y=3
Hope you understand!

<u><em>And for 4x – 3y = 11</em></u>
Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second by 3 so that there are the same number of y's in each:
8x - 6y = 22 ...(3)
30x + 6y = -3 ...(4)
Now add (3) and (4) term by term:
38x + 0 = 19
or
38x = 19
or x = 1/2
Put this back into equation (1)
4*(1/2) - 3y = 11
or
2 - 3y = 11
Subtract 2 from both sides:
-3y = 9
Divide both sides by -3
y = -3
