Answer: multiply x by 2 in the first equation and subtract the second equation
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve a system of linear equations by elimination method , our first step is to make its (either x or y) coefficient same.
For that we multiply a number to both sides of the equation not to only one term.
So by checking all the given options it is pretty clear that the last option is not applicable for elimination method because in this 2 is multiplied to only one term, which proceeds to loose the balance of the equation.
Thus , an INCORRECT step that will NOT produce a system with the same solution is "multiply x by 2 in the first equation and subtract the second equation
".
A) To cook 1/2 cup of rice, the package tells you that you also need 1 cup of water. The the total volume of ingredients is
.. 1/2 c + 1 c = 1 1/2 c
b) According to the package the ratio of water to rice is
.. water : rice = 1 : 1/2 = 2 : 1
Then the ratio of water to total ingredients is
.. water : (water + rice) = 2 : (2 +1) = 2 : 3
Susan's ratio is incorrect. Susan is using "1" for the total of ingredients, instead of 2+1 = 3. The correct ratio is 2:3.
Answer:
CALEB
Step-by-step explanation:
because 800 is greater than 200 and 100
Mario says that the expression
has four terms: 4, 3, n, and 2. Mario is incorrect
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that the expression is:

Given that, Mario says that the above expression has four terms
But Mraio is incorrect
Because the given expression has two terms only
4 is one of the term
is another term
So there are totally 2 terms only
A term can be a signed number, a variable, or a constant multiplied by a variable or variables
Here 3 is a constant multiplied by 
So,
is one term
Each term in an algebraic expression is separated by a + sign or - sign
Thus there are two terms in mario expression
