8, 3/4-foot lengths of pipe can be cut from a 6 1/3-foot pipe.
Hope this helps you :)
Answer:
(x, y) = (77/240, -3/10)
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to write the equations in standard form.
Multiplying the first equation by 21 gives ...
21y = 24x -14
Multiplying the second equation by 8 gives ...
24x +9y = 5
Then the system of equations in standard form is ...
Subtracting the first from the second, we get ...
(24x +9y) -(24x -21y) = (5) -(14)
30y = -9
y = -9/30 = -3/10
Substituting this into the second equation, we have ...
24x +9(-3/10) = 5
24x = 7.7 . . . . . . . add 27/10
x = 7.7/24 = 77/240
The solution is (x, y) = (77/240, -3/10).
Answer:
Please find solution in the picture attached
Step-by-step explanation:
earrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
p*x+57-(-75*x+q)=0
In this type of equations, having more than one variable (unknown), you have to specify for which variable you want the equation solved.
Unless there is none then in that case there very well may be infinite solutions
