Solve each system by substitution 2x - 3y = -1 X + 4y = -6

Mathematics
1 answer:
lord [1]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(- 2, - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x - 3y = - 1 → (1)

x + 4y = - 6 → (2)

Rearrange (2) expressing x in terms of y by subtracting 4y from both sides

x = - 6 - 4y → (3)

Substitute x = - 6 - 4y into (1)

2(- 6 - 4y) - 3y = - 1 ← distribute and simplify left side

- 12 - 8y - 3y = - 1

- 12 - 11y = - 1 ( add 12 to both sides )

- 11y = 11 ( divide both sides by - 11 )

y = - 1

Substitute y = - 1 into (3) for corresponding value of x

x = - 6 - 4(- 1) = - 6 + 4 = - 2

Solution is (- 2, - 1 )

Write a problem involving how much more Than and solve it. Explain how drawing a diagram helped you solve the problem
avanturin [10]
A very simple example problem to satisfy the required above is,
"John has 8 apples and 17 oranges. How much more oranges does John has than apple?"

To answer this item, one needs to subtract the number of apples from the number of oranges. This is as shown below,
     D = 17 - 8 = 9

The concept of "how much more than" is linked to finding the difference between the numbers.

in the following diagrams ABD=y,DBC=x,EFH=y, EFG=x and PQS=SQR=x.write the following in terms of x and y ABC
Leokris [45]

Angles are the space between intersecting lines, and they are measured in degrees or radians

The measure of angle ABC is y + x

<h3>How to determine angle ABC</h3>

The given parameters are:

ABD=y,

DBC=x,

EFH=y,

EFG=x

PQS = SQR = x

To determine the measure of angle ABC, we make use of angle ABD and angle DBC

Note that angle ABD and angle DBC have common vertices at points B and D

So, we have:

ABC = ABD + DBC

Substitute known values

ABC = y + x

Hence, the measure of angle ABC is y + x

Write this fraction as a sum or difference.<br><br> 17. 9p-63
Alex787 [66]
P=7 because when you do bring 63 on the other side it'll be 9p=63 and after that divide both sides by 9 and you'll have p=7
