Answer:

x=3

y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 4x+2y=18\\2x+3y=15

To solve : Solution of system of equation

Solution :

4x+2y=18  ---(a)

2x+3y=15 ---(b)

Since we are given that we have to solve these equation by elimination method :

Multiply equation (a) by 2 and equation (b) by 4

Then equation becomes:

8x+4y=36  ---(a)

8x+12y=60 ---(b)

Subtract (a) from (b)

8x+12y-60-(8x+4y-36)=0

8x+12y-60-8x-4y+36=0

8y-24=0

y=\frac{24}{8}

y=3

Now put this value in (b) to get value of x

8x+12(3)=60

8x+36=60

8x=60-36

8x=24

x=\frac{24}{8}

x=3

Thus the solution of this system of equations is x=3 and y=3

\left \{ {{4x+2y=18(1)} \atop {2x+3y=15(2)}} \right.
Lets multiply equation (2) by -2 to get:
-4x-6y=-30

Now we can add equations (1) and (2) to eliminate x:
\left \{ {{4x+2y=18}+ \atop {-4x-6y=-30}} \right.
-4y=-12
y= \frac{-12}{-4}
y=3
Now that we know the value of y, we can replace it in equation (1) to get the value of x:
4x+2(3)=18
4x+6=18
4x=12
x= \frac{12}{3}
x=3

We can conclude that both x and y are equal to 3.

Write an equation of the line containing the point (3,5) and perpendicular to the line 4x-3y=5
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the equation of the line perpendicular to the given line, we first have to know what the slope of the given line is, and there's no way to tell by looking at it in its current form, which is standard. We need to solve that equation for y to determine the slope of that line. Solving for y:

-3y=-4x+5 and

3y = 4x - 5 (just change all the signs so our y term isn't negative anymore...yes, you're "allowed" to do that!) and

y=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{5}{3} So we can see now that the slope of this line is 4/3. That means that the perpendicular slope is -3/4. Passing through the given point (3, 5):

y-5=-\frac{3}{4}(x-3)* and

y-5=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{4} and

y=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{4}+\frac{20}{4} so

y=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{29}{4}** and, in standard form:

4y = -3x + 29 and

3x + 4y = 29***

* : point-slope form

** : slope-intercept form

*** : standard form

Define and compare radian measure to degree measure
Lelechka [254]
Radian: is the standard unit of angular measure, used in many areas of mathmatics.
degree: is a measuement of plane angle, defined by representing a full rotation as 360 degrees.

Both are two units for measuring angles. There are at least four such units, but degrees and radians are most likely to encounter high school and college.
