Solve the simultaneous equations: 5x + 2y = 17 4x + y = 10

Mathematics
1 answer:
erik [133]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

(1, 6 )

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y = 17 → (1)

4x + y = 10 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the y- term

- 8x - 2y = - 20 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate y

- 3x + 0 = - 3

- 3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

5(1) + 2y = 17

5 + 2y = 17 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2y = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 6

solution is (1, 6 )

On a cold February morning, the radiator fluid in Stanley’s car is -18 degrees When the engine is running, the temperature goes
Rasek [7]

Remark

This is an arithmetic progression. You have the first and last terms and the difference.

Givens

a = - 18

L = 60

d = 4.5        

Equation

L = a + (n - 1)d

Solve

60 = -18 + (n - 1) * 4.5   Add 18 to both side

60 + 18 = (n - 1) * 4.5      

78 = (n - 1) * 4.5           Divide both sides by 4.5

78/4.5 = n - 1

17.3333 = n - 1             Add 1 to both  sides.

18.3333 = n

Conclusion

It will that 18 1/3 or 18.33333 minutes to get the from -18 to 60 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure if it's asking what is the markup, or how much you are making.

But profit

$20 out of 50 = 0.40

Markup
