2x+3y=15 x+y=6 find values for x and y

Mathematics
1 answer:
MatroZZZ [7]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  (x, y) = (3, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract double the second equation from the first.

  (2x +3y) -2(x +y) = (15) -2(6)

  y = 3 . . . . . . . . simplify

Use the second equation to find x.

  x = 6 -y = 6 -3 = 3

The values of x and y are both 3.

26. A book costs sh. (x - 300) and a pen costs sh (x + 100). If Ndagire pad sh. 3300 for 3 books and 2 pens, how much did she pa
saul85 [17]

Answer:

500 and 900

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 300) + 2(x + 100) = 3300 ← distribute parenthesis

3x - 900 + 2x + 200 = 3300

5x - 700 = 3300 ( add 700 to both sides )

5x = 4000 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 800

Then

cost of book = x - 300 = 800 - 300 = 500

cost of pen = x + 100 = 800 + 100 = 900

What is the numerical coefficient of the a^8*b^2 term in the expansion of ((1/3)a^2 - 3b)^6 ?
zhuklara [117]

In the binomial development, the main problem is calculation of binomial coefficients.

If we want to get term a∧8*b∧2 we see that this is the third member in binomial development (n 2) a∧n-2*b∧2

The given binomial  is ((1/3)a∧2 - 3b)∧6, the first element is (1/3)a∧2, the second element is (-3b) and n=6 when we replace this in the formula we get

(6 2) * ((1/3)a∧2)∧(6-2) * (-3b)2 = (6*5)/2 * ((1/3)a∧2)∧4 *9b∧2= 15*(1/81)*9 *(a∧8b∧2) =

= 15*9* a∧8b∧2 = 135*a∧8b∧2

We finally get numerical coefficient 135

Good luck!!!
