Answer:
The solution of the system shown is (2k, k)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a systems of two equations:
First equation: x+y = 3k
Second equation: x - y = k
From the second equation we get that: x = k + y (1)
Substituting (1) in the first equation we get:
k + y + y = 3k
Solving for y:
2y = 2k ⇒ y = k.
Then, let's find the value of "x" using equation (1):
x = k + y ⇒ x = k + k = 2k
The solution of the system shown is: (2k, k)
ANSWER
The solution of the system shown is (2k,k)
EXPLANATION
The given system of equations are:
First equation:
[tex]x + y = 3k[/tex]
Second equation:
[tex]x - y = k[/tex]
We consider this to be a simulation equation in x and y, and then treat k as a constant.
Let us eliminate y, by adding the two equations:
[tex]x + x = 3k + k[/tex]
This implies that:
[tex]2x = 4k[/tex]
[tex]x = 2k[/tex]
Let us now substitute x=2k into any of the equations, say , the second equation.
[tex]2k - y = k[/tex]
Group similar terms.
[tex] - y = k - 2k[/tex]
[tex] - y = - k[/tex]
[tex]y = k[/tex]
The solution is therefore (2k,k)
The last choice is correct.
