Solve the system with elimination. {2x-y=2, -5x+4y=-2

Mathematics
1 answer:
DaniilM [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

{x=2,y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1:

Multiply both sides of the equation by a coefficient

{ 4(2x-y)=2*4

-5x+4y=-2

Apply Multiplicative Distribution Law

{8x-4y=2*4,-5x+4y=-2

8x-4y+(-5x+4y)=8+(-2)

Remove parentheses

8x-4y-5x+4y=8-2

Cancel one variable

8x-5x=8-2

Combine like terms

3x=8-2

Calculate the sum or difference

3x=6

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of the variable

x=6/3

Calculate the product or quotient

x=2

Equation two:

{-5+4y=-2, x=2

-5*2+4y=-2

Calculate the product or quotient

-10+4y =-2

Reduce the greatest common factor (GCF) on both sides of the equation

-5+2y=-1

Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation

2y=-1+5

Calculate the sum or difference

2y=4

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of the variable

y=4/2

y=2

Hope this helps!!

How many 1/4 cup servings of raisins are in 7/8 cups of raisins?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 7/8 by 1/4.  (You divide the "supply" of raisins into 1/4 cup "parts".)

\frac{7}{8} \div \frac{1}{4} = \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{4}{1} = \frac{28}{8} =\frac{7}{1} =7

Multiply 7/8 by the reciprocal of 1/4 ("flip" the 1/4).

The result is 28/8, which can be simplified ("reduced") to 7.

Of the last 100 customers entering Best Buy, 25 buy a computer. If the classical probability assessment applies, the probability
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The classical probability assessment works based on the principle that the probability of an event occurring is equal to the number of times the event occurs divided by total number of outcomes.

That is:

P(A) = n(A) / N

Therefore, the probability that the next customer will buy a computer will be:

P(c) = 25 / 100 = 1/4
