Answer:
X = 4 & Y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Multiply the first equation by -2 & Multiply the second equation by 1
-2 (2x+3y=17)
1 (3x+6y=30)
Becomes:
−4x−6y=−34
3x+6y=30
Add these equations to eliminate y:
−x=−4
2. Then solve −x= −4 for x:
−x=−4
-x/−1 = −4/−1
(Divide both sides by -1)
x=4
Now that we've found x, plug it back in to solve for y.
Write down an original equation:
2x+3y=17
Substitute (4) for (x) in 2x+3y=17:
(2)(4)+3y=17
3y+8=17(Simplify both sides of the equation)
3y+8+−8=17+−8(Add -8 to both sides)
3y=9
3y/3 = 9/3
(Divide both sides by 3)
y=3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the system of equations:
Let's solve by substituting. We know that 
, so we can substitute 
in as 
in the equation 
.
Simplify this down so that we have 
on one side of the equation:
Now that we know the value of , we can substitute it in to the equation 
to find .
Hope this helped!
The answer is: D
You have 3c (3 times her cousins age) -4 (4 less than)
Answer:
x = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle is split into two similar triangles. They have the same shape but not the same size. To solve, write a proportion.
Cross multiply to solve for x.
56(x+4) = 44.8(35)
56x + 224 = 1,568
56x = 1,344
x= 24
