A system of equations is given below.

Sorry I don't undersand this one.
i never do xD
know anyone?

For part one, multiply the first equation (all terms of it) by 3 and post what you get.
6x+21y=3
@Directrix
That is good for part one.
Part Two: Solve the new system: 6x + 21y = 3 -3x - 4y = 5 ---------------------
Suggestion: Multiply every member of the second equation by 2. Post what you get.
-6x-8y=10 @Directrix
Okay. The system is now ready to be solved. Add like terms and post what you get. 6x + 21y = 3 -6x - 8y = 10 ---------------
do i add up and down or within the one system?
is this all for A? @Directrix
Add like terms. We are currently on part two. Look at the question.
>>do i add up and down or within the one system? I don't know what you are asking. Those two equations form a system. Add the like terms so that you can solve for y.
I mean like -6x+6x @Directrix
Yes 6x + 21y = 3 -6x - 8y = 10 ------------- 0 + Keep going.
0+13=13
@Directrix
Do 21y - 8y first. Yes, 0 + 13 = 13
:D ok so thats a now what about b and c ??
Use any method to solve the equivalent system of equations (the new first equation with the original second equation). Prove that the solution for the equivalent system is the same as the solution for the original system of equations. because i don't i swear i don't understand what they even mean
We are still in the middle of part B 6x + 21y = 3 -6x - 8y = 10 ------------- 13y = 13 Solve for y. If 13*y = 13, then what is the value of y? @Sparklestaraa Divide by sides of 13*y = 13 by 13 to get y = ?
13/13=1 so y=1 ??? @Directrix
i think its supposed to be the new 1st equation with the original second equation at least thats what it says.
Now, solve for x. -6x - 8y = 10 -6x - 8(1) = 10 Solve that for x. Then, part B ends. Part C is to solve the two old equations using the same method. We are supposed to get the same common solution on Part C that we get on Part B.
so i divide what here?
is it 0?
or -1
@Directrix
-6x - 8(1) = 10 -6x - 8 = 10 Add 8 to both sides of the equation
2 and 18
@Directrix
-6x - 8 = 10 -6x = 18 x = -3
The solution to Part B is the order pair (-3, 1) Now, to part C.
kk :D
Solve the original system: 2x + 7y = 1 -3x - 4y = 5 ------------- your task: Multiply every member of this equation by 4: 2x + 7y = 1
I'm down this far- 2x +7y=1 -3x-4y=5 2*4= 8 7*4=28 1*7=7 -3*7= -21 4*4=16 5*4= 20 8x+28y=7 -21x-16y=20 __________ -13x+44y=27 @Directrix
>>8x+28y=7 should be 8x + 28 y = 4
8x + 28 y = 4 -3x - 4y = 5 ------> Your task: multiply every member of this equation by 7
@Sparklestaraa
I'm here sorry let me read
I'm confused how did u get to 4? and what???
your task: Multiply every member of this equation by 4: 2x + 7y = 1 4 times the 1 on the end = 4
8x + 28y = 4 -21x - 28y = 35 ------------------- -13x = 39 x = -3
To get y, take the equation 2x + 7y = 1 In place of x, substitute x = -3 2 * (-3) + 7y = 1 -6 + 7y = 1 7y = 7 y = 1
Solution to original set of equations in Part A is ( -3, 1). That is the same as the solution to the new equations in Part B. So, the two systems of equations are equivalent. Problem complete.
THANKS SO SO SO MUCH :D :D UR THE BESTTTT :D @Directrix
