Answer:
To decide whether to add or subtract, determine if the values of the coefficients are the same or opposites:
. If the values are the same, subtract the equations.
• If the values are opposites or additive inverses, add the equations.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
How to solve
Options (1) and (2) are incorrect because none of the options eliminate x or y.
For option (3),
- Check for the coefficients of x and y
- If they are the same (sign and value), then subtract; otherwise add
For instance:
Rewrite the second equation
The coefficient of y are the same, so we subtract;
<em>See that y has been eliminated</em>
We are given a function f ( x ) defined as follows:
We are to determine the value of f ( x ) when,
In such cases, we plug in/substitue the given value of x into the expressed function f ( x ) as follows:
We will apply the power on both numerator and denominator as follows:
Now we evaluate ( 2 ) raised to the power of ( 1 / 9 ).
Next apply the division operation as follows:
Once, we have evaluated the answer in decimal form ( 5 decimal places ). We will round off the answer to nearest thousandths.
Rounding off to nearest thousandth means we consider the thousandth decimal place ( 3rd ). Then we have the choice of either truncating the decimal places ( 4th and onwards ). The truncation only occurs when (4th decimal place) is < 5.
However, since the (4th decimal place) = 8 > 5. Then we add ( 1 ) to the 3rd decimal place and truncate the rest of the decimal places i.e ( 4th and onwards ).
The answer to f ( 1 / 2 ) to the nearest thousandth would be:
