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

please mark me brainlest

dsp73

Answer:

Step 1 Divide all terms by a (the coefficient of x2).

Step 2 Move the number term (c/a) to the right side of the equation.

Step 3 Complete the square on the left side of the equation and balance this by adding the same value to the right side of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x 5(x+4)=2x+20+2x
spayn [35]
Hey!
so first distribute the 5 to x + 4
5x+20 = 2x + 20 + 2x
combine 2x and 2x
5x+20 = 4x + 20
Now you want the constant and variable on different sides so subtract 4x to the other side
5x - 4x + 20 = 20
1x + 20 = 20
now subtract the 20 on the 1x + 20 side to the other side
1x = 0
divide by 1
0 divided by anything is 0
So x = 0
Hope this helps!

Evaluate each function for the given value
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

3)  5

5)  1

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute the value of 9 for each 'x' in the expression

3) h(9) = 2/3(9) - 1

            = 18/3 - 1

            = 6-1 or 5

substitute the value of 5 for each 'x' in the expression

5) f(5) = -5² + 6(5) - 4

         = -25 + 30 - 4

         = 5-4 or 1
