Yes the answer I should be 10.
Answer:
the equation D ) would cause a consistent-independent system.
Step-by-step explanation:
A ) 5 x + y = 7 /*( -2 )
10 x + 2 y = 14
--------------------
- 10 x - 2 y = - 14
10 x + 2 y = 14
------------------------
0 x = 0 ( Dependent system )
B ) 5 x + y = 7 / * 3
- 15 x - 3 y = - 6
--------------------------
15 x + 3 y = 21
- 15 x - 3 y = - 6
-------------------------
0 x = 15 ( Inconsistent system )
C ) 5 x + y = 7
5 x + y = - 7 / * ( - 1 )
---------------------------
5 x + y = 7
- 5 x - y = 7
------------------
0 x = 14 ( Inconsistent system )
D ) 5 x + y = 7 / * ( - 2 )
6 x + 2 y = 7
------------------
- 10 x - 2 y = - 14
6 x + 2 y = 7
-----------------------
- 4 x = - 7; x = 7/4; y = - 7/4
15 I may be wrong but If I am please provide more information.
Distribute first.
.75 times 8 + .75 times e, which is 6+.75e = 2-1.25e
Then subtract 2 from both sides,
4+.75n=-1.25e
Next subtract .75 from both sides,
4=-2e
Divide both sides by -2, and you will get e= -2. Hope this helps!
