7x - 3y = 42x - 4y = 1the solution to the system of equations is _____.

1 answer:

4 0

7x - 3y = 4
2x - 4y = 1

Multiply the first equation by 4.
Multiply the second equation by -3

28x - 12y = 16
-6x + 12y = -3

Now add the equations.

22x = 13

x = 13/22

Now substitute x = 13/22 in the first original equation and solve for y.

7 * 13/22 - 3y = 4

91/22 - 3y = 88/22

-3y = -3/22

y = 1/22

Answer: x = 13/22, y = 1/22

y = 3/22

K, remember
(ab)/(cd)=(a/c)(b/d) or whatever
also
$(ab)^c=(a^c)(b^c)$
and
$x^{-m}= \frac{1}{x^m}$
and
$x^ \frac{m}{n}= \sqrt[n]{x^m}$
and
$( \frac{x}{y} )^m= \frac{x^m}{y^m}$
and
$(x^m)^n=x^{mn}$
and
(a/b)/(c/d)=(a/b)(d/c)=(ad)/(bc)

so
$( \frac{-7x^ \frac{3}{2} }{5y^4} )^{-2}$ =
$( \frac{-7}{5} )^{-2}( \frac{x^ \frac{3}{2} }{y^4} )^{-2}$ =
$( \frac{(-7)^{-2}}{5^{-2}} )( \frac{(x^ \frac{3}{2})^{-2} }{(y^4)^{-2}} )$ =
$( \frac{ \frac{1}{(-7)^2} }{ \frac{1}{5^2} } )( \frac{x^ \frac{-6}{2} }{y^{-8}} )$ =
$( \frac{ \frac{1}{49} }{ \frac{1}{25} } )( \frac{(x^{-3}) }{\frac{1}{y^8}} )$
$( \frac{ \frac{1}{49} }{ \frac{1}{25} } )( \frac{\frac{1}{x^3} }{\frac{1}{y^8}} )$ =
$(\frac{25}{49} )( \frac{y^8}{x^3}$ =
$\frac{25y^8}{49x^3}$
