First, work out the difference (decrease) between the two numbers you are comparing. Next, divide the decrease by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. If the answer is a negative number, this is a percentage increase.

Solve the system of equations by graphing: 2x + 3y = 2 6x + 18y = 9

cluponka [151]

The answer is A: x=1/2 , y= 1/3

Solve the following system:
{2 x + 3 y = 2 | (equation 1)
{6 x + 18 y = 9 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:
{6 x + 18 y = 9 | (equation 1)
{2 x + 3 y = 2 | (equation 2)

Subtract 1/3 × (equation 1) from equation 2:
{6 x + 18 y = 9 | (equation 1)
{0 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 3:
{2 x + 6 y = 3 | (equation 1)
{0 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:
{2 x + 6 y = 3 | (equation 1)
{0 x+3 y = 1 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 2 by 3:
{2 x + 6 y = 3 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = 1/3 | (equation 2)

Subtract 6 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{2 x+0 y = 1 | (equation 1)
v0 x+y = 1/3 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 2:
{x+0 y = 1/2 | (equation 1)
v0 x+y = 1/3 | (equation 2)

Collect results:
Answer: {x = 1/2, y = 1/3

Use the diagram that awnser the questions.

CaHeK987 [17]

Part A
The first thing we must do in this case is to hide the slopes of each line.
line m:
m = (- 4-3) / (0 - (- 4))
m = -7 / 4
Line n:
n = (- 2-2) / (3-1)
n = -4 / 2
n = -2
Answer:
Lines m and n are not parallel because their slopes are different.

Part B:
We look for the slope of the K line:
k = (1 - (- 3)) / (4 - (- 3))
k = 4/7
We observe that it is true that:
k = -1 / m
Answer:
The lines are perpendicular.
