Solve the system of equations using elimination after modifying the coefficients.

Mathematics

zaharov [31]3 years ago

Answer:

l = 14 , w = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

2l + 2w = 52 → (1)

l - w = 2 → (2)

multiplying (2) by 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the w- term

2l - 2w = 4 → (3)

add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate w

4l + 0 = 56

4l = 56 ( divide both sides by 4 )

l = 14

substitute l  14 into either of the 2 equations and solve for w

substituting into (1)

2(14) + 2w = 52

28 + 2w = 52 ( subtract 28 from both sides )

2w = 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )

w = 12

This question is incomplete

The girls' swim team is hosting a fund raiser. They would like to raise at least $500. They are selling candles for $5 and flower arrangements for $6. The girls estimate that at most they will sell 200 items.

Write a system using c for candles and f for flowers.

Answer:

c + f ≤ 200

5c +6f ≥ 500

Step-by-step explanation:

Using

c for candles

f for flowers.

The girls estimate that at most they will sell 200 items.

At most is a statement that means : Less than or equal to with the inequality sign (≤)

Hence:

c + f ≤ 200

They would like to raise at least $500. They are selling candles for $5 and flower arrangements for $6.

At least is a statement that means : Greater than or equal to with the inequality sign (≥)

Hence:

$5 × c + $6 × f ≥ $500

5c + 6f ≥ 500

Therefore, the system of inequalities is given as:

c + f ≤ 200

5c + 6f ≥ 500

What's the solution of this equation?
Aneli [31]
X = 5x + 6

Bring the x terms to the same side
x - x = 5x + 6 - x

0 = 4x + 6

Move the 6 to the opposite side
0 -6 = 4x + 6 - 6
-6 = 4x

Divide by 4
x = - 3/2
