PL help ASAP this id due 2day 3. Given a system of two equations in two variables, replacing one equation by the sum of that equation and a multiple of the other produces a system with the same solution. Show why this is true by solving the system of equations given. Justify the reason for each step. HINT: Use addition property of equality and multiplication property of equality in your answers. (8 points: 1 point for each question)
5x + 2y = 7
3x – y = 2
To solve the system using elimination, first multiply the bottom equation by 2. Write the new system of equations. (1 point)

Why is this multiplication allowed? (1 point)

What variable will be eliminated when the equations are combined after the multiplication? (1 point)

Next, add the equations together. Your answer should be a single equation with one variable. (1 point)

Why can you add the equations? (1 point)

Solve the equation for x. (1 point)

1- what do you think the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? is it rational or irrational? make use of variables, the closure property of integers, and possibly a proof by contradiction to prove your hypothesis.2- why do we have to specify that the rational number must be nonzero when we determine what the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? if the rational number were 0, would it give us the same result we found in the first question?
