What is the solution of the systems of equations y=-3x-3 and y=-0.5x+2?

Mathematics

This is two lines in slope intercept form and we want their intersection.  We just set the ys equal.

-3x - 3 = (-1/2)x + 2

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fractions,

-6x - 6 = -x + 4

-10 = 5x

x = -10/5 = -2

y = -3x - 3 = -3 (-2) - 3 = 6 - 3 = 3

Check:

y = (-1/2)x + 2 = (-1/2)(-2) + 2 = 1 + 2 = 3, good

Answer: x=-2, y=3

Find the value of x please
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

x=70

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x is 70 because this triangle is isosceles, meaning that there are two congruent sides and two congruent angles (which are the base angles). x is one of the base angles, 70º is the other base angle's measurement, so x=70.

Solve by substituting the equation y=-x-6 y=x-4<br>(plz show work)
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

x = -1, y= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-x-6

y=x-4

Since both equations are equal to y we can set them equal to each other

-x-6 = x-4

Add x to each side

-x-6+x = x-4+x

-6 = 2x-4

Add 4 to each side

-6+4 = 2x-4+4

-2 =2x

Divide by 2

-2/2 = 2x/2

-1 = x

now find y

y = x-4

y = -1-4

y = -5
