Question

HELP ME PLEASE NEED ANSWER NOWWWWWWWWWW solve the following system of equation. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. Your answer will be in the form (M,N). Find M+N, rounded to the nearest tenth.

5x+2y=21
-2x+6y=-34

Answer 1

(A) 5x+2y=21
(B) -2x+6y=-34

multiply (A) by - 3→ -15x - 6y = - 63 (C)

Now add (C) to (B):

-15x - 6y = - 63 (C)
-2x + 6y =-34 (B)
----------- --------
-17x = - 97 and x = 97/17

Now replace x value in any of the equation and you'll find y = - 64/17

1st Answer (97/17 , - 64/17)
2nd Answer : 97/17 + (-64/17) = 97/17 - 64/17 = 33/17 ≈ 2
