Question 247147: which set of equations represents the given equations after they have been cleared of fractions? 2x+16/11 + y-1/3 = 3
3x+3/4 - 2y-3/5 = 2
A) 2x-11y=114
3x+2y=80
B) 2x+y=84
3x-2y=34
C) 6x+11y=62
15x-8y=13
D) 6x+11y=99
15x+8y=40 Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! which set of equations represents the given equations after they have been cleared of fractions?
2x+16/11 + y-1/3 = 3
(3x+3)/4 - (2y-3)/5 = 2
-----
Multiply thru the 1st equation by 33
3(2x+16) + 11(y-1) = 99
6x+48 + 11y-11 = 99
6x + 11y +37 = 99
6x + 11y = 62
-----------------
Multiply thru the 2nd equation by 20
5(2x+3) - 4(2y-3) = 40
10x+15 - 8y+12 = 40
10x - 8y + 27 = 40
10x - 8y = 13
-----------------
