Solve by the elimination method.
0.3x-0.2y=4
0.2x+0.3y= -37/17

u did this b4 too.
OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):
x = 32.7
y = -29
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(32.7,-29) ?
OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):
Yes!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok. I did do a similar one before. that answer was a fraction though/

:) gotta gain up lost points from the outtage lol
OpenStudy (amistre64):
the ti83 gives me decimals; and this thinl looks to turn mean in the end
OpenStudy (amistre64):
it close to (6,-11) :) if that helps
OpenStudy (amistre64):
i fthis is on a program; they give any options?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lol so the answer is decimals? I juist want to make sure it accepts the answer

the answers are fractions for exact form; but my calc only gives me the decimals
OpenStudy (amistre64):
*10; 0.3x-0.2y=4
*10; 0.2x+0.3y= -37/17
3x-2y=40
2x+3y= -370/17 ; *17
3x-2y=40
34x+51y= -370 this looks better and is prolly more doable
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it says simplify your answer. Type an ordered pair. Use integers or fractions for any numbers in the expression.
OpenStudy (amistre64):
sounds like mathlab stuff
OpenStudy (anonymous):
LOL

haha.
OpenStudy (amistre64):
3x- 2y= 40 ; *34
34x+51y= -370; * -3
102x - 68y = 1360
-102x -153y = 1110
--------------------
221y = 2470
y = 2470/221
cant tell if it simplifies yet :)
OpenStudy (amistre64):
y = 190/17
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wow...I am going to study over this while you figure it out. There is still x to solve right?
OpenStudy (amistre64):
3x - 2y = 40 ; *51
34x +51y = -370; * 2
153x -102y = 2040
68x +102y= -740
-------------------
221x = 1300
x = 1300/221 ; /13 top to bottom
x = 100/17

i think i tripped over myself; gotta dbl chk
OpenStudy (amistre64):
i cant get them to match up :/
OpenStudy (amistre64):
i see it; i dropped a negative sign lol
OpenStudy (amistre64):
that got it lol
OpenStudy (amistre64):
x=100/17
y=-190/17
