Answer:
x=133 y=-25
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll do both ways for you. So let's start with Substitution:
With the sub method, you have to set both equations equal to each other by setting them equal to the same variable. Since there is no coefficient in front of both x's in both equations, that variable will be easiest to solve for.
x + 2y = 83 & x + 5y = 8
Solve for x.
x = 83 - 2y & x = 8 - 5y
Once you have solved for x, set each equation equal to one another and solve for y now.
83 - 2y = 8 - 5y
Isolate all variables to one side:
83 = 8 - 3y
Now subtract the 8 to fully isolate the y variable:
75 = -3y
Divide by -3:
-25 = y Now that you have your first variable, plug it into one of the original equations and solve for x.
x + 2(-25) = 83
x - 50 = 83
x = 133
Now for the Elimination method. For this method you need to get rid of a variable by either subtracting/adding each equation together. Again, since you can subtract and x from both equations, you will be left with only the y variable to solve:
Put each equation on top of one another and subtract:
x + 2y = 83
- (x + 5y = 8)
The x's will cancel out:
(x - x) + (2y - 5y) = (83 - 8)
Simplify:
-3y = 75
Solve for y
y = -25
Then, plug y = -25 into one of the original equations:
x + 5(-25) = 8
Solve for x:
x - 125 = 8
x = 133
Hope this helps!
Answer:
1. =
2. <
3. <
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: When comparing decimals you always place both decimals right above each other.
1 is equal to because once you put a 0 behind the 2.1 they are both the same.
2.10
2.1 <add 0 as space holder
2 is less than because they are both negative you are looking for which one is closest to zero.
-4.5 <add 0 as place holder
-4.25 <closest to zero
3 is less than because 
(pie) equals 3.141592654 which is less than 3.2.
3.141 <do not need to add whole decimal
3.2 <add two 0's as a placeholder
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
0 = –x^2 + 4x – 2
This is of the form
ax^2 +bx +c
a = -1 b = 4 x = -2
The discriminant is
b^2 -4ac
4^2 - 4(-1)(-2)
16 - 8
8
