2p+3q=-7 3p+5q=-12 What is the solution in an ordered pair?

Mathematics
1 answer:
natita [175]3 years ago

Answer:

(p, q ) = (1, - 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

2p + 3q = - 7 → (1)

3p + 5q = - 12 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 3 and (2) by - 2 and adding the result will eliminate p

6p + 9q = - 21 → (3)

- 6p - 10q = 24 → (4)

Add (3) and (4) term by term to eliminate p

0 - q = 3

-q = 3 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

q = - 3

Substitute q = - 3 into either of the 2 equations and solve for p

Substituting into (1)

2p + 3(- 3) = - 7

2p - 9 = - 7 ( add 9 to both sides )

2p = 2 ( divide both sides by 2 )

p = 1

juin [17]

Answer:

There is a positive correlation between these two variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

Positive correlation is an association amid two variables in which both variables change in the same direction.  

A positive correlation occurs when one variable declines as the other variable declines, or one variable escalates while the other escalates.

As the distance covered by the vehicle increases the amount of gas consumed also increases. Thus, the weekly cost of gas will also increase.

Thus, there is a positive correlation between these two variables.

Substitution for:<br> X-5y=10<br> 2x-10y=20
sergey [27]
Since you need an isolated variable to use the substitution method, we need to re-arrange one of the equations. This will probably be easiest to do with the first one.
Add 5y to both sides of the first equation.
x=10+5y
Now, in the second equation, put in 10+5y in any spot that has an x.
2(10+5y)-10y=20
Distribute the 2 to both numbers in the parenthesis.
20+10y-10y=20
Combine like terms.
20=20
This means that the two equations are actually the same. You can see this if you multiply the whole first equation by 2
2(x-5y=10)
2x-10y=20, which is the same as the second equation. Therefore, the two equations are actually the same one.
