Question

Question down below about linear equations.

Answer 1

The system of equations is -x + y = 4 and -2x + y = 0

How to create the system of linear equations?

To do this, we make use of the following ordered pairs

(4, 8)

The above point represents April 2008.

Let the system of equations be

mx + ny = 4

2mx + ny = 0

Substitute (4, 8) for x and y in the above equations.

4m + 8n = 4

8m + 8n = 0

Subtract both equations

4m - 8m = 4

This gives

-4m = 4

Divide by 4

m = -1

Substitute m = -1 in 8m + 8n = 0

-8 + 8n = 0

This gives

8n = 8

Divide by 8

n = 1

So, the system of equations is -x + y = 4 and -2x + y = 0

The graph of the system of equations

The system of equations is -x + y = 4 and -2x + y = 0

See attachment for the graph of the system

Prove that the solution is (4, 8)

The above is represented in the (a) part of this solution

Verify that the solution is (4, 8)

We have:

-x + y = 4 and -2x + y = 0

Substitute (4, 8) for x and y in the above equations.

-4 + 8 = 4 --- true

-2*4 + 8 = 0 --- true

Both equations are true

Hence, the system of equations have been verified
