when you want to solve an elimination question

3x -2y = 11. ( equation 1)

-3x - y = 6. ( equation 2)

To proceed in the solution, we have to make one of the variable' s coefficient equal on both equation.

I want to make the coefficient of variable X equal on both equation and to do this , the coefficient of X in equation 1 will be used to multiply the whole of equation 2 .while the coefficient of X in equation 2 will be used to multiply the whole of equation 1.

(-3) 3X - 2y = 11 ( equation 1)

(3) -3X - y = 6 ( equation 2)

-9X +6y = -33 ( equation 1)

- 9x - 3y = 18 ( equation 2)

( now , we have to eliminate X and inorder to do that , we substrate equation 1 from 2)

-9X -(-9X) ,+6y -(-3y) ,-33-18

-9X +9x , +6y +3y , -51

9 y = -51

y = -51/9

y = -5⅔

Substitute y = -5⅔ in equation 1

3x -2(-5⅔) = 11

3X - 2 ( -17/3) = 11

3X + 34/3 =11

divide through by the LCM which is 3

3( 3x) + 3 ( 34 /3 ) = 3*11

9x +34 = 33

9x = 33-34

9x = -1

X= -1/9

therefore, y = -5⅔ , X = -1/9

Math! Need help will give brainliest if CORRECT
SOVA2 [1]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

So we want to see which of these have the greatest value. Since these are all negative numbers, we want the one that is closest to zero.

So, we know that -1000 is going to furthest from 0. -10 will be further than -8 since it is a larger negative number, so it will be more negative than -8.

-1/2 is just barely negative, so it is going to be closer to -0 than -8, so the correct answer is C. -1/2.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D

Which of these descriptions matches the graph?
qwelly [4]

The correct answer is A. Jimmy is running late, so he starts to run to school  but needs to take breaks.

Explanation:

The graph shows the distance in axis y and the time in axis x. Additionally, the graph presents different sections from A to E. In this, the sections A, C, and E show an increase in the distance from home, this implies there was movement. Moreover, the speed (distance traveled in time) is higher in sections C and E than in A because the distance increases in a shorter time. Also, in sections D and B there is no movement as time continues but the distance is the same. In this context, the description that best matches the graph is "Jimmy is running late, so he starts to run to school  but needs to take breaks" because this is the only option that includes the breaks or lack of movement in sections B and D. Also, the changes in speed are likely to occur in this scenario.
