Equation 1)  x = 3y - 6
Equation 2)  2x - 4y = 8

Subtract 3y from both sides of the first equation.

1)  x - 3y = -6

Then, multiply all of the first equation by 2.

1)  2(x - 3y = -6)

1)  2x - 6y = -12
2)  2x - 4y = 8

Subtract equations.

-2y = -20

Divide both sides by -2.

y = 10

Plug in 10 for y in the first equation.

x = 3y - 6

x = 3(10) - 6

x = 30 - 6

x = -24

(10,24)

Hello

x = 3y - 6
2x - 4y = 8
We need to start by solving 3y - 6 for x
Substitute 3y -6 for x in 2x
2x - 4y = 8
2(3y - 6) - 4y = 8
2y - 12 = 8
2y = 8 + 12
2y = 20
Divide both sides by 2
2y/2 = 20/2
y = 10

Now, substitute 10 for y in x= 3y
x = 3y - 6
x = 3(10) - 6
x = 30 - 6
x= 24

Answer : x = 24 and y=10

I hope this help!

What is the midpoint of the x-intercepts of f(x) = (x – 2)(x – 4)?
tatyana61 [14]
The x-intercepts are readily identified on the graph:  (2,0) and (4,0).  The midpoint of a line connecting those 2 points would be (3,0).

What is the solution to this system of equations? y = x - 20 x + y = 84
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

(52, 32 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x - 20 → (1)

x + y = 84 → (2)

Substitute y = x - 20 into (2)

x + x - 20 = 84, that is

2x - 20 = 84 ( add 20 to both sides )

2x = 104 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 52

Substitute x = 52 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 52 - 20 = 32

Solution is (52, 32 )

When G(2,-6) is reflected in the line y = -2, the image is located at G |
Mkey [24]

Answer:

The point (2, -6) is four below the line y= -2

The reflection will be four below the line y=-2.

Since y=-2 is a horizontal line, the reflection will be vertical,

so (2,-6) will reflect down 6 spaces vertically. -6 + (4*2) = (-6 + 8) =  2  therefore when we establish 4 below the line we just apply * 2 as a double as its across the line each side of the line to find that below the line = 4 = 4*2 and add it to -6

 

(2,-6) reflected over y=-2 reflects to (2, 2 )
