Answer:
x = 1
y= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve this system of equation , simultaneously using the substitution method
we say let
7 x + y = 5 ............................................. equation 1
2x - y = 4 ................................................... equation 2
from equation 2
2x - y = 4 ................................................... equation 2
2x - 4 = y
y = 2x -4.......................................................... equation 3
put the value of the y = 2x -4 into equation 1
7 x + y = 5 ............................................. equation 1
7x + 2x - 4 = 5
9x-4 = 5
9x = 5 + 4
9x = 9
divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 9
9x/9 = 9/9
x = 1
substitute the value of x = 1 into equation 3
y = 2x -4.......................................................... equation 3
y = 2(1) -4
y = 2 - 4
y = -2
to check if you are correct put the value of x and y into any of the equations and you will see that the left hand side will be equal to the right hand side.
2x - y = 4 ................................................... equation 2
2(1) -(-2) = 4
2 + 2 = 4
4=4................................... proved
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1/4
(-1,-4)...x = -1 and y = -4
now sub and find b, the y intercept
-4 = 1/4(-1) + b
-4 = -1/4 + b
-4 + 1/4 = b
-16/4 + 1/4 = b
-15/4 = b
so the equation in slope intercept form is : y = 1/4x - 15/4
but we need it in general form : Ax + By + C = 0
y = 1/4x - 15/4.....multiply everything by 4 to get rid of fractions
4y = x - 15......subtract x and add 15 ...to both sides
4y - x + 15 = 0 <=== general form
