Solving systems of equations by substitution

Mathematics

SashulF [63]3 years ago

Equation 1)  2x - 3y = -1
Equation 2)  y = x -1

Rearrange equation 2 so that x and y are on the same side. To do so, you subtract x from both sides.

2)  -x + y = -1
1)  2x - 3y = -1

Multiply ALL of equation 2 by 2.

2)  2(-x + y = -1)

Simplify.

2)  -2x + 2y = -1
1)  2x - 3y = -1

Add equations together.

-y = 0

So, y = 0

Plug in 0 for y in the first equation.

2x - 3y = -1

2x - 3(0) = -1

Simplify.

2x - 0 = -1

2x = -1

Divide both sides by 2.

x = -1/2

(-1/2 , 0)

Answer:

number 1 is c      number 2 is b,c,e  number 3 is b

Step-by-step explanation:

1: if you see something to the power you will always think of repeated multiplication off the bat. so you just multiply the coefficient by the amount of the exponent.

2: 1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1=1 no

2*2*2*2=16 yes

4*4=16 yes

8*8=64 no

16=16 yes

3: 3/4*3/4*3/4=27/64

hope this helps! have a nice day!

Please answer this simple question !!!
Norma-Jean [14]
First, coordinate Q is (-5,2) and Q' is (6,2). First, we know that this is a horizontal reflection becuase only the x-values change. This means that the line of reflection will be x=some value. I think the best way to go about this is to find the midpoint of Q and Q' using the formula: M=(x1+x2/2,y1+y2/2)
Q is the first point and Q' is the second point
M=(-5+6/2,2+2/2)
M=(1/2,4/2)
M=(1/2,2)

Since we know the y-values of Q, Q', and the midpoints are all 2, then the line of reflection would be x=1/2

Hope this helps
