Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - 5y = 16___(1)

2x - 3y = -16___(2)

(1) + (2) ==> -2x -5y = 16

(+) 2x -3y = -16

-8y = 0

y = 0/-8

y = 0

y=0 in (1)

(1)---> -2x-5y =16

-2x - 5(0) = 16

-2x - 0 = 16

-2x = 16

x = 16/-2

x = -8

x = -8 , y = 0

-5x + 2y = 11__(1) ; -3x + 4y = -13___(2)

multiply eqn(1) with 2

2 × (1) : -10x + 4y = 22___(3)

(3) - (2) :. -10x + 4y = 22

(-) -3x + 4y = -13

-7x = 35

x = 35/-7

x = -5

x=-5 in (1)

(1) : -5x + 2y = 11

-5(-5) + 2y = 11

25 + 2y = 11

2y = 11 - 25

2y = -14

y = -14/2

y = -7

x = -5 , y = -7

Answer:

a) P(0, 2), Q(4, 0)

b) Please find attached the plot of the points P and Q on a chart made with MS Excel

c) Please find the graph of the line that represent the function 4·x + 2·y = 8 for values of x from -2 to 3 made with the Insert Chart feature on MS Excel

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation for the line is 4·x + 2·y = 8

a) The coordinates of P = P(0, _)

Therefore, the point 'P', which is the point where the variable y = 0, is the point the (straight line) graph intercepts the x-axis (the x-intercept)

When y = 0 from the given equation, we get;

4·x + 2·y = 8

At the point y = 0;

4·x + 2 × 0 = 8

x = 8/4 = 2

x = 2

∴ The coordinates of P = P(0, _) = P(0, 2)

Similarly, when x = 0, we get;

4·x + 2·y = 8

At the point x = 0;

4 × 0 + 2·y = 8

y = 8/2 = 4

y = 4

∴ The coordinates of Q = Q(_, 0) = Q(4, 0)

b) Rewriting the given equation in terms of 'y' gives;

y = (8 - 4·x)/2 = 4 - 2·x

y = 4 - 2·x

With the help of MS Excel, the points P and Q are plotted in the attached graph

c) The line of the graph of the function 4·x + 2·y = 8 for values of x from -2 to 3 can be added by Changing the Chart Type to 'Scatter with Smooth Lines and Markers' within MS Excel as presented in the included graph of the line.

Why is the equation y-y1=m(x-x1) called the point-slope form?

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The equation of the line with slope m = 2 and passing through the point (1, 1) will be:

$y = 2x$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the point-slope form of the line equation is

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

where

m is the slope of the line

(x₁, y₁) is the point

The formula $y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$ is termed as the point-slope form of the line equation because if we know one point on a certain line and the slope of that line, then we can easily get the line equation with this formula and, hence, determine all other points on the line.

For example, if we are given the point (1, 1) and slope m = 2

Then substituting the values m = 2 and the point (1, 2)

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

$y - 2 = 2(x-1)$

$y - 2 = 2x-2$

$y = 2x-2+2$

$y = 2x$

Therefore, the equation of the line with slope m = 2 and passing through the point (1, 1) will be:

$y = 2x$
