Where to Dig: The dinosaur's tail bones are at the solution
point to the system of
equations below.
- 2x - 7y = -250
y = 140
Every time you click a point
using the CPS, the equations
below will update. Remember,
the solution is the point that
makes both equations true.
-2( x ) - 7(y) =250 X
4( x) - (y) =140 X

x = 41

y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Systems of equations is,

-2x - 7y = -250 ------(1)

4x - y = 140 ------(2)

Equation (1) multiplied by 2 then added to equation (2)

  -4x -14y = -500

(+)   4x - y = 140  

          -15y = -360

             y =

            y = 24

by putting y = 24 in equation (2),

4x - 24 = 140

4x = 140 + 24

x =

x = 41

For x = 41 and y = 24 both the equations are true.

Equation (1),   -2(41) - 7(24) = -250  [True]

Equation (2),   4(41) - (24) = 140  [True]
