Simultaneous Linear Equations could be solved by using several methods such as :

<em>Elimination Method</em>
<em>Substitution Method</em>
<em>Graph Method</em>

If we have two linear equations with 2 variables x and y , then we need to find the value of x and y that satisfying the two equations simultaneously.

Let us tackle the problem!

<em>Let:</em>

<em>Number of Commercials = C</em>

<em>Number of Movies = M</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Jaces songs were played on 6 more commercials than movies.</em>

$\boxed{C = 6 + M}$ → <em>Equation 1</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Jace will earn $50 every time one of his songs is played in a commercial and he will earn $140 every time one of his songs is played in a movie.</em>

<em>His total earnings in the royalties from all commercials and movies was $680.</em>

$\boxed{50C + 140M = 680}$ → <em>Equation 2</em>

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Equation 1 ↔ Equation 2 :</em>

$50C + 140M = 680$

$50 ( 6 + M ) + 140M = 680$

$300 + 50M + 140M = 680$

$190M = 680 - 300$

$190M = 380$

$M = 380 \div 190$

$M = 2$

$\texttt{ }$

$C = 6 + M$

$C = 6 + 2$

$C = 8$

$\texttt{ }$

<h2>Conclusion:</h2>

The number of commercials and the number of movies in which Jaces songs where played is respectively 8 and 2

$\texttt{ }$

There is a rectangular terrain with dimensions "x" and "y". If it is known that its area of is 22m ^ 2 and that x ^ 2 + y ^ 2

Margaret [11]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

24 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area formula tells us ...

22 = xy . . . . . square meters

Adding twice this to the quadratic constraint gives ...

(x^2 +y^2) +2(xy) = (100) +2(22)

(x +y)^2 = 144

x +y = √144 = 12

The perimeter is double this amount, so is ...

P = 2(x +y) = 2(12) = 24 . . . . meters

If the point A is located at ( –5, – 3) and A’ is the image of A after being rotated about the origin by 270° (counter clockwise

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

A'(- 3, 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a counterclockwise rotation about the origin of 270°

a point (x, y ) → (y, - x ), hence

A(- 5, - 3 ) → A'(- 3, 5 )
