Im 100% sure it is either A or B...
Two systems of equations are shown below: System A: 2x + y = 5 -4x + 6y = -2 System B -10x + 19y = -1 -4x + 6y = -2 Which of the following statements is correct about the two systems of equations? They will have the same solutions because the first equation of System B is obtained by adding the first equation of System A to 2 times the second equation of System A. They will have the same solution because the first equation of System B is obtained by adding the first equation of System A to 3 times the second equation of System A. The value of x for System B will be –5 times the value of x for System A because the coefficient of x in the first equation of System B is –5 times the coefficient of x in the first equation of System A. The value of x for System A will be equal to the value of y for System B because the first equation of System B is obtained by adding –12 to the first equation of System A and the second equations are identical.
do u want answer or help?
ummm both lol
lol :)
ok hold on:)
*waits*
did you find the solutions so you can compare the steps taken?
ok i did math for both of them and both are y=1 x=2
the solutions are the same
yeah
i already did tht step
thats why i said its either a or b
so then lets see hmmmm
ok im 14 and going to 9th and im answering questions besides ur questions beyond my grade level: P
kool!
umm i would love to say its b but let me check again
its B.
yay i was right
Ok ok Thanks @Nikato
if you follow the wording for B 2x+y=5 +3(-4x+6y=-2) ---------------- you get the first equation of B which is -10x+19y=-1
but if you do A, you get somethign else
well i did what i could :P : ) n_n
That was what i was attempting to do but i didnt get anywhere xD
Thanx again
no problem
is this still open because you need to know why the answer is B?
no it was just cause i was too lazy to close it lol @triciaal
