Which ordered pair (a, b) is the solution to the following system of equations?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kamila [148]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  (-13, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is about as easy to try the solutions as it is to find them from scratch.

__

However, we can determine which one it is by adding twice the second equation to the first.

  (-2a +3b) +2(a -4b) = (14) +2(3)

  -5b = 20

  b = -4 . . . . . . matches the first choice

Use the equation below to answer the question.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The equivalent equation is correctly matched with a key feature of the graph is

y = 3(x + 2) highlights that the x-intercept is at -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

y=3x+6

Solution:

The Given Equation is in Slope - Point Form i.e

y=mx+c

Where,

m=slope\\\\c=y-intercept

On Comparing the given equation with above we get

slope=m=3\\\\y-intercept =6

Now we Know that

Intercepts:

The line which intersect on x-axis and y-axis are called intercepts.

There are two intercepts:

y-intercept: The line which intersect at y-axis. So when the line intersect at y-axis X coordinate is zero.

x-intercept: The line which intersect at x-axis. So when the line intersect at x-axis Y coordinate is zero.

For x-intercept

Put y = 0 in

y=3(x+2)

0=3x+6\\\\3x=-6\\\\\therefore x=\dfrac{-6}{3}=-2

∴ x-intercept of

y=3x+6

x-intercept = -2

The equivalent equation is correctly matched with a key feature of the graph is

y = 3(x + 2) highlights that the x-intercept is at -2.
