How many home runs did each player hit the season

Mathematics

Let Peter's hit be x and Alice's runs be y.
x = 2(y - 6) . . . (1)
x + y = 18 . . . (2)

Putting (1) into (2) gives,
2y - 12 + y = 18
3y = 18 + 12 = 30
y = 30/3 = 10
x = 2(10 - 6) = 2(4) = 8

Therefore, Peter hit 8 home runs and Alice hit 10 home runs.

Heyy pls help! worth 20 points, and please only help if you know the answer. also no links those r kinda annoying lol
iragen [17]

Step 1: Find the slope:

    m= \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \dfrac{-2-7}{4-(-2)} =  \dfrac{-9}{6}= -\dfrac{3}{2}

This gives you y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x+b, but we need to find b.

To find b, substitute in one (x,y) pair and it doesn't matter which one.  I'll go with (4,-2):

    \begin{aligned}-2&=-\dfrac{3}{2}(4)+b\\[0.5em]-2&=-6+b\\[0.5em]4&=b\end{aligned}

Now take that b-value and plug in into the slope-intercept form:

     y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x+4

It's always a good idea to toss in the other x-value from the other point, to make sure it checks out.

Linear equation <br><br> 4.5 + 1.5y=24<br> x-y=4
WARRIOR [948]
4.5x + 1.5y = 24 ⇒ 4.5x + 1.5y = 24
1.0x -  1.0y = 4   ⇒<u> 4.5x - 4.5y = 18</u>
                                             <u>6y</u> = <u>6</u>
                                              6     6
                                               y = 1
                             4.5x + 1.5(1) = 24
                                 4.5x + 1.5 = 24
                                 <u>         - 1.5    - 1.5</u>
                                          <u>4.5x</u> = <u>22.5</u>
                                           4.5      4.5
                                               x = 5
                                          (x, y) = (5, 1)
