Use the linear combination method to solve this system of equations. What is the value of x? 3 x + 7 y = 31. Minus 3 x minus 2 y = negative 1 Negative 6 Negative 3 and two-thirds 3 and two-thirds 6

x = -3 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the simultaneous equations;

3 x + 7 y = 31 1

-3x - 2y = -1 2

Add both expressions

7y - 2y = 31-1

5y = 30

y = 30/5

y = 6

Substitute y = 6 into equation 2

From 2;

-3x - 2y = -1

-3x - 2(6) = -1

-3x - 12 = -1

-3x  = -1  + 12

-3x  = 11

x = -11/3

x = -3 2/3

Hence the value of x is -3 2/3

1. is 4 and 2. is 3

step-by-step explanation:

so if you look at the first one you see that 1 is to 4 and 2 is to 8 and so on, so you can see for every 1 there is a times 4 so if it were 3 then it would be 3*4 and it is 12

for number 2 it is 3 because 1 is to 3 and 2 is to 6 so for every 1 there is 3 so if it were 3 then there would be 3*3 = 9

distance covered by pamela in 9 l of fuel = 99km

let us apply unitary method here.

distance covered by pamela in 1 l of fuel =99/9 =11 km

now let us find distance covered by pamela if she has 12 l of fuel.

distance covered in 12 l = distance covered in 1 l of fuel * 12

we know that distance covered by here in 1 l is 11 km.

so distance covered in 12 l of fuel = 11*12 = 132 km.
