Y=2x+8 and y= -2/3x. Identify the value of x that simultaneously satisfies both equations.

1 answer:

5 0

Let's solve this by subst. (-2/3)x for y in y=2x+8.

Then 2x+8 = (-2/3)x. (For clarity you must use those parentheses.)

The LCD is 3. Mult. both sides by 3, obtaining

6x+24 = -2x. Then 8x = -24, and x = -3. Now that you have a value for x, subst. this value (-3) into either of the given equations to determine y.

Then write your solution in the form (-3, ?? ).

6 2 1 How many ways does this produce and are they legitimate?

6 2 1
6 1 2
2 6 1
2 1 6
1 2 6
1 6 2

So any combination that you come up with, will produce 6 variations within those three choices. They are legitimate.

Lets see what you get with at most 5 estates to one person

5 3 1 Which will also give 6 variations. There are no other ways to make 5

4 3 2 Which will give 6 variations

I don't think there are any more possible choices.

Are the only 3 ways the estates can be split given the rules. Each choice leads to 6 other choices. The total is 18
