Answer:
(x, y) = (2 2/9, -1 4/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the values of y and solve for x.
1/4x -2 = -2x +3
(2 1/4)x = 5 . . . . . . . . add 2+2x to both sides
x = 20/9 = 2 2/9 . . . multiply by 4/9
y = -2(2 2/9) +3 = -4 4/9 +3 . . . . substitute for x in the second equation
y = -1 4/9
The solution is x = 2 2/9, y = -1 4/9.
Answer:
y - 3 = (2/5)(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with the general point-slope form of the equation of a straight line:
y - k = m(x - h). Now substitute -2 for h and 3 for k, and also 2/5 for m:
y - 3 = (2/5)(x + 2)
SOLUTION:
Let whole number = x
x + 2x^2 = 21
2x^2 + x - 21 = 0
2x^2 + 7x - 6x - 21 = 0
x ( 2x + 7 ) - 3 ( 2x + 7 ) = 0
( 2x + 7 ) ( x - 3 ) = 0
2x + 7 = 0
2x = - 7
x = - 7 / 2
OR
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
ANSWER:
Therefore, as 3 is a whole number while - 7 / 2 isn't a whole number, the whole number must be 3.
Hope this helps! :)
Have a lovely day! <3
