To find the y-intercept of the equation, we will put 0 in for x, and find y.


So, y = 14.2 - 3.9(0)


y = 14.2

Answer:

  • dependent system
  • x = 2 -a
  • y = 1 +a
  • z = a

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this by eliminating z, then we'll go from there.

Add 6 times the second equation to the first.

  (3x -3y +6z) +6(x +2y -z) = (3) +6(4)

  9x +9y = 27 . . . simplify

  x + y = 3 . . . . . . divide by 9 [eq4]

Add 13 times the second equation to the third.

  (5x -8y +13z) +13(x +2y -z) = (2) +13(4)

  18x +18y = 54

  x + y = 3 . . . . . . divide by 18 [eq5]

Equations [eq4] and [eq5] are identical. This tells us the system is dependent, and has an infinite number of solutions. We can find them in terms of z:

  y = 3 -x . . . . solve eq5 for y

  x +2(3 -x) -z = 4 . . . . substitute into the second equation

  -x +6 -z = 4

  x = 2 - z . . . . . . add x-4

  y = 3 -(2 -z)

  y = z +1

So far, we have written the solutions in terms of z. If we use the parameter "a", we can write the solutions as ...

  x = 2 -a

  y = 1 +a

  z = a

_____

<em>Check</em>

First equation:

  3(2-a) -3(a+1) +6a = 3

  6 -3a -3a -3 +6a = 3 . . . true

Second equation:

  (2-a) +2(a+1) -a = 4

  2 -a +2a +2 -a = 4 . . . true

Third equation:

  5(2-a) -8(a+1) +13a = 2

  10 -5a -8a -8 +13a = 2 . . . true

Our solution checks algebraically.

Solve 19.9 = 9 y - 8.<br> Y=
Savatey [412]
The answer would be y = 3.1

19.9 + 8 = 9y

27.9 = 9y

27.9/9 = y

3.1 = y

y = 3.1.

L1 : y = 2x , (2) find the equation of the line L2 perpendicular to L1 passing through the point P = (1, 2).
just olya [345]

Answer:

<h2>2y+x = 5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the line L1 as y = 2x perpendicular to an unknown line L2 passing through the point P = (1, 2), we are to find the equation of line L2. to find the equation of the line L2, we will use the point-slope equation of a line expressed as y-y₀ = m(x-x₀)

m is the slope of the unknown line

(x₀, y₀) is the given point.

First is to get the slope of the known line:

comparing the line L1: y = 2x with the standard equation of the line y = mx+c, it can be seen that m = 2

Then we will calculate the slope of the required line.

Since L1 is perpendicular to L2, the product of their slope will be -1 i.e

mm₁ = -1 where m₁ is the slope of the required line L2.

Given m =2

m₁ = -1/m

m₁ = -1/2

Finally we will calculate the equation of line L2 by substituting the slope of line L2 and the point in the point slope equation above;

y-y₀ = m(x-x₀)

Given (x₀, y₀) = (1,2) and m₁ = -1/2

y-2 = -1/2(x-1)

open the parenthesis

y-2 = -x/2+1/2

multiply through by 2:

2y-4 = -x+1

2y+x = 1+4

2y+x = 5

<em>Hence the equation of the line L2 is 2y+x = 5</em>
