2a+3b  = -1      | *3
3a +5b = -2       |* -2

6a+ 9b = -3
-6a -10b = 4
------------------
/      -b =1
         b= -1

2a + 3b= -1
2a + 3* -1 = -1
2a -3= -1
2a = 3-1
2a=2
a=2:2
a=1

What is the result of subtracting the second equation from the first -2x+7y=10 3x+7y=2
Iteru [2.4K]

The answer after subtracting the following equation is x= -8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

  • -2x+7y=10 ----- eq(1) , 3x + 7y =2------ eq(2)

  • 7y+3x =2
  • 7y-2x = 10
  • subtracting eq 2 from eq 1 we get
  • 5x = -8
  • x= -8/5

Could someone please answer question b) ii) ?<br> The question is on the attached image.
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

b) i) Curve A

ii) - 1.75

iii) x = 1 - √5  or x = 1 + √5

Step-by-step explanation:

b) i) We are given a function y = x² - 2x - 3 and the graph of this function is also shown in the side diagram.

The equation can be rearranged to y = (x - 1)² - 4

⇒ (x - 1)² = y + 4

Therefore, this is an equation of a parabola having the vertex at (1,-4) point and its axis is parallel to the positive y-axis.

So, the curve A represents the equation given. (Answer)

ii) Now, at x = 2.5, f(x) = 2.5² - 2 × 2.5 - 3 = - 1.75 (Answer)

iii) When y = 1, then x² -2x - 3 = 1

⇒ x² - 2x - 4 = 0

⇒ (x - 1)² - 5 = 0

⇒ (x - 1)² - (√5)² = 0

⇒ (x - 1 + √5)(x - 1 - √5) = 0

⇒ x = 1 - √5  or x = 1 + √5 (Answer)
