For
solving system of equations, we can use either substitution where we plug one
equation into the other, or elimination where we combine the equations.
-
Using elimination,
you would to eliminate one variable from both equations, so you automatically would
get one equation with one variable!
- Using
substitution
means you are going to solve one equation for one variable and substitute with
its value in the other equation in order to get also an equation with one
variable.
Let's take an example ...
y+x=2 and y-2x = 1
<span>Using <span>elimination, we need to subtract these two equation; one from the other...
y+x=2
-
y-2x=1
-----------
0+3x=1
then
x=1/3 and then substitute into any equation to get y-value</span></span>
y+x=2
y+1/3 = 2 >>>>>
y=5/3NOW...<span>Using substitution
</span>y+x=2 and y-2x = 1 >>(y=1+2x)
Plug (y=1+2x) into y+x=2 and solve for x
y+x=2
(1+2x) + x =2
1+3x = 2
3x=1
again (and for sure)
x = 1/3plug in x=1/3 into any of the equations above to get y:
y+x=2
y+1/3=2
y=5/3DOne !!!!!!
I hope you got
the idea

Answer:
The equation of the line will be:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the points
Finding the slope
We know that the value of y-intercept can be obtained by setting x=0, and solving for y
Here,
at x = 0, the value of y = 0
Thus,
y-intercept = b = 0
We know the slope-intercept form of the line equation is
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
now substituting m = 0 and b = 0 in the slope-intercept form
y = mx+b
y = 0(x) + (0)
y = 0+0
y = 0
Therefore, the equation of line will be:
Answer:
Dont need to worry
First, start off with the x-axis. -6.5, 1 becomes 6.5, 1. This is because point T is 6.5 to the left of the x-axis line, so our new point would be 6.5 to the right of the x-axis line. Same thing for the y-axis, (6.5, 1) would become (6.5, -1).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
They gave you an easy triangle. You can tell by the coordinates that X and Z are horizontally aligned, and Y and Z are vertically aligned, so Z is a right angle.
Area = 0.5(XZ)(YZ) = 0.5(3)(3) = 4.5 square units.
