This is hard to write... I hope this makes sense to you...
3x-2y=-39
x+3y= 31
We want to use elimination therefor, we need to either get our x or our y to add together to get zero. 
To do this, we will multiply -3 to (x=3y=31) 
NEW EQUATION
3x-2y=-39 PLUS
-3x-9y= -93 Equals
Answer: -11y= -54 
y= 4.9
Plug in to solve for x (put new y in)
3x-2(4.9)=-39
x= -9.73

Solving for x on 3x - 2y = -39:
First, we must add 2y to both sides.
3x - 2y + 2y = -39 + 2y
3x = 2y - 39
Next, we divide both sides by 3.
3x/3 = 2y - 39/3
Answer: 2/3y - 13

Solving for y on x+3y=31:
First, we must add -x to both of the sides.
x + 3y + -x = 31 + -x
3y = -x + 31
Next, we must divide both sides by 3. (Like last time.)
3y/3 = -x + 31/3
Answer: y = -1/3x + 31/3

I hope this helps! (And what you're looking for! :>)

- 3x + y = 3<br> 2y = -3x - 12
Lynna [10]

Answer:

x=-2, y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

we can rearrange the questions to make it easier

y=3x+3

2y=-3x-12

if you add the two equations, you get

3y=0x-9

so y=-9/3 = -3

plug y into one of the equations

-3=3x+3

-6=3x

x=-2

and then check your work by plugging into the other equation:

2*-3=-3(-2)-12

-6=6-12

-6=-6

Which of the following points does not lie on the line y = -2x +5?
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

C and E are not on the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just substitute for the x and the y and see which ordered pair fits and which does not:

If Left side of the equation = right side then the point fits.

A.   y = -3

-2x+5 = -2(4) + 5 = -3  So A is on the line

B. y = 9

-2(-2) + 5 = 9 So this point does lie on the line.

C. y = 1

-2(3) + 5 = -1   No.

D. y = 7

-1(-1) + 5 = 7  YES.

E. y = 1

-2(1) + 5 = 3 NO.
