Solve the simultaneous equation 3x + y = 8 x - 3y = 11

Mathematics
1 answer:
podryga [215]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 7 / 2, y = - 5 / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + y = 8 ------> equation 1

3 ( 3x + y = 8 )

9x + 3y = 24 ------> equation 2

x - 3y = 11 ------> equation 3

Add equations 2 & 3,

9x + 3y = 24

x - 3y = 11

_________

10x + 0 = 35

10x = 35

x = 35 / 10

x = 3.5

Substitute x = 3.5 in equation 1,

3x + y = 8

3 ( 3.5 ) + y = 8

10.5 + y = 8

y = 8 - 10.5

y = - 2.5

x = 3.5

= 35 / 10

x = 7 / 2

y = - 2.5

= - 25 / 10

y = - 5 / 2

A person places $686 in an investment account earning an annual rate of 3.8%, compounded continuously. Using the formula V = Pe^
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

V = $1213.03

Step-by-step explanation:

We can determine the amount of money after 15 years with the given formula:

V = Pe^{rt}   (1)

Where:

V: is the value of the account in t years =?

P: is the principal initially invested = $686                

r: is the rate of interest = 3.8% = 3.8/100 = 0.038

t: is the time = 15 years

By substituting the above values into equation (1) we have:

V = Pe^{rt} = 686*e^{(0.038*15)} = 1213.03  

               

Therefore, the amount of money is $1213.03.

I hope it helps you!
