Solve the system of linear equations by substitution. x+4y=18 y=-x+9

Dima020 [189]2 years ago

Using the substitution method, the solution to the system of linear equations, is: (6, 3).

<h3>System of Linear Equations</h3>

Using substitution method, we can make one of the variables the subject of the formula for one of the equations, then find the other variable by substituting.

Given:

  • x + 4y = 18 --> eqn. 1
  • y = -x+9 --> eqn. 2.

Substitute y = -x + 9 into equation 1.

x + 4(-x + 9) = 18

x - 4x + 36 = 18

-3x + 36 = 18

-3x = 18 - 36

-3x = -18

x = 6

Substitute x = 6 into equation 2 to find y

y = -6 + 9

y = 3

Therefore, using the substitution method, the solution to the system of linear equations, is: (6, 3).

Use the distributive property.

(8n+1)(6n-3)=(8n)(6n)+(8n)(-3)+(1)(6n)+(1)(-3)\\\\=48n^2-24n+6n-3=48n^2-18n-3

Last month, he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550. This month, he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for
STALIN [3.7K]
Answer: chicken $8, duck $5

Explanation:

x - the cost of a chicken
y - the cost of a duck

he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550: 50x + 30y = 550
he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for $532: 44x + 36y = 532

50x + 30y = 550                divide by 10
44x + 36y = 550                 divide by 4
______________
50x/10 + 30y/10 = 550/10
44x/4 + 36y/4 = 532/4
______________
5x + 3y = 55                                    
Multiply by (-3)
11x + 9y = 133
______________
5x * (-3) + 3y * (-3) = 55 * (-3)
11x + 9y = 133
______________
-15x - 9y = -165
11x + 9y = 133
______________
Sum up:
-4x + 0y = -32
-4x = -32
x = -32/-4
x = 8

Since 5x + 3y = 55  and x = 8, then:
5 * 8 + 3y = 55
40 + 3y = 55
3y = 55 - 40
3y = 15
y = 15/3
y = 5

What is the probability of rolling a 1 with a number cube that has the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 and tossing heads with a coi
Helga [31]
Probablity is (desired outcomes)/(total) possible outcomes so the dice 1 is desired and the total poassible outcomes is 6 since 6 numbers so probailty of rolling a 1 is 1/6 then flippin heads desired outcome=1 total possible=2 probabilty is 1/2 so we have 1/6 and 1/2 now we mulitply them 1/6 times 1/2=1/12 the answer is A
