Solve each system using substitution.1. 4x= 3y-2 ; 18= 3x+y2. 3x+2y= 23 ; 1/2x-4= y

1 answer:

5 0

1. 4x= 3(18-3x) - 2
4x=54-9x-2
4x+9x=52
13x=52
x=4

substitute 4 for x
4(4)=3y-2
16=3y-2
16 + 2 = 3y
y=6

So your x would be 4 and y would be 6

to check your solution substitute x and y
4(4)=3(6) - 2
16 = 16
Therefore that's the final answer for number 1.

Answer: C= (3,2) and D=(2.2, 2.8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of point P(x,y) divides a line segment having end points M ${x_1,y_1}$ and N $(x_2,y_2)$ in m:n will be :-

$x=\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n}\ ;\ y=\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}$

Given : The endpoints of AB are A(1,4) and B(6,-1).

If point C divides AB in the ratio 2 : 3, the coordinates of point C will be :-

$x=\dfrac{2(6)+3(1)}{2+3}\ ;\ y=\dfrac{2(-1)+3(4)}{2+3}$

Simplify,

$\\\\\Rightarrow x=3\ y=2$

Thus , coordinate of C= (3,2)

If point D divides AC in the ratio 3 : 2, the coordinates of point D will be :-

$x=\dfrac{3(3)+2(1)}{3+2}\ ;\ y=\dfrac{3(2)+2(4)}{3+2}$

Simplify,

$\\\\\Rightarrow x=3\ y=2$

Thus , coordinate of D= (2.2,2.8)
