Answer:
The solution is (3 , 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the system of the equation you can use the elimination method or substitution method.
We will use the substitution method
From the first equation x + 2y = 5⇒get x = 5 - 2y
In the second equation 3x + 5y = 14⇒we will substitute x by 5 - 2y
3(5 - 2y) + 5y =14
15 - 6y + 5y = 14
-6y + 5y = 14 - 15
-y = -1
y = 1
Substitute the value of y in x = 5 - 2y
x = 5 - 2(1) = 5 -2 =3
∴ The solution of the system of equations is (3 , 1)
2 | 3
45| 67.5
33| 50
multiplying and dividing by 1.5 based off of the 2-3 ratio.
The answer would be C.
If you do -5.5 + 2.5 over 6.1 - 3.1 it would be -3 over 3 which is equal to -1.
You could also do -2.5 + 5.5 over 3.1 - 6.1. It would be 3 over -3 which is also equal to -1.
