Solve using elimination 5x+7y=9 2x-3y=-37

Mathematics

uranmaximum [27]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = -8

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 7y = 9

2x - 3y = -37

1.) First, multiply each side to match either y-values or x-values. (In this example, we'll use match x-values)

10x + 14y = 18 (multiplied by 2)

10x - 15y = -185 (multiplied by 5)

2.) Then, subtract the entirety of one equation to isolate the y-value.

10x + 14y = 18

-10x + 15y = 185

3.) Add and subtract values and divide to find y.

29y = 203

y = 7

4.) Plug-in y to solve for x into one equation, or repeat steps 1-3.

15x + 21y = 27

14x - 21y = -259

29x = -232

x = -8

Barry is 8 years older than his sister. In 3 years, he will be twice as old as she will be then. How old is each now?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Present age of Barry = b

Present age of sister = s

Barry is 8 years older than his sister means if we subtract 8 from present age of Barry both will be of equal age

s=b-8 ............(1)

In 3 years means we have to add 3 in their present age

s+3=b+3

then

he will be twice as old as

2(s+3)=(b+3

2s+6=b+3

2s=b+3-6

2s=b-3...............(2)

Put the value of s from (1) to (2), we have

2(b-8)=b-3

2b-16=b-3

2b-b=-3+16

b=13

Put the value of b in (1)

s=13-8

s=5

Present age of Barry = b = 13

Present age of sister = s = 5
