Capitolo 6, Problema 25

In Exercises 19–30, solve each system by the addition method. 4x + 3y = 15 2x - 5y = 1
Exercise 25: Solve the system of equations 4x + 3y = 15 and 2x - 5y = 1 using the addition method.

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Multiply the second equation by 2 to align the coefficients of x: 2(2x - 5y) = 2(1)
This results in the equation: 4x - 10y = 2
Now, add the two equations together: (4x + 3y) + (4x - 10y) = 15 + 2
Combine like terms: 4x + 4x + 3y - 10y = 17
Simplify the equation to find the value of y: 8x - 7y = 17

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

System of Linear Equations

A system of linear equations consists of two or more linear equations with the same variables. The solution is the set of values for the variables that satisfy all equations simultaneously. Understanding how to interpret and represent these systems is fundamental to solving them.

Addition (Elimination) Method

The addition method involves adding or subtracting equations to eliminate one variable, making it easier to solve for the remaining variable. This requires manipulating the equations, often by multiplying by constants, to align coefficients for elimination.

Solving for Variables After Elimination

Once one variable is eliminated, the resulting single-variable equation can be solved using basic algebra. After finding this variable's value, substitute it back into one of the original equations to find the other variable, completing the solution.
