X + y = 85
2x + 4y = 218
x = 85 - y
<span>2(85 - y) + 4y = 218 </span>
<span>170 - 2y + 4y = 218 </span>
<span>170 + 2y = 218 </span>
<span>2y = 48 </span>
<span>y = 24 </span>
<span>x = 61</span>
Answer:
No solutions
Explanation:
The given system of equations is
2y = x + 9
3x - 6y = -15
To solve the system, we first need to solve the first equation for x, so
2y = x + 9
2y - 9 = x + 9 - 9
2y - 9 = x
Then, replace x = 2y - 9 on the second equation
3x - 6y = -15
3(2y - 9) - 6y = -15
3(2y) + 3(-9) - 6y = -15
6y - 27 - 6y = -15
-27 = -15
Since -27 is not equal to -15, we get that this system of equation doesn't have solutions.
I think that the correct answer is B
Hope that helps.
Step-by-step explanation:
the leading coefficient means the coefficient (factor) of the term with the highest exponent of the variable (typically x).
with sufficiently large values of this variable (x - going far enough to the right) this term will "win" in value against any other term of the polynomial expression.
and therefore the sign of its factor (coefficient) will determine, if the curve will go up or down.
a positive factor (coefficient) will make the value of this term and therefore of the whole polynomial larger and larger, making the curve going up to +infinity.
a negative factor (coefficient) will make the value of this term and therefore of the whole polynomial smaller and smaller (more negative and more negative), making the curve going down to -infinity.
