-2x+y=-16

-8x-7y=-20

Solve -2x+y=-16 for y

Add 2x  to both sides

-2x+y+2x=-16+2x

y=2x-16

Substitute 2x-16 for y in -8x-7y=-20

-8x-7y=-20

Simplify both sides of the equation

-8x-7(2x-16)=-20

Add -112 to both sides

-22x+112+-112=-20+-112

-22x=-132

Divide both sides by -22

-22x/-22=-132/-22

x=6

Substitute 6 for x in y=2x-16

y=2x-16

y=(2)(6)-16

Simplify both sides of the equation

y=-4

Answer :

y=-4 and x=6


I hope that's help !

This one's a little bit harder but i'm sure i can solve it. I usually pick the smaller number to solve first and then substitute the larger one.
-2x+y=-16
-8x-7y=-20

So you'll solve

-2x+y=-16
+2x/     +2x
y=2x-16------- this is what y means so you substitute y in the other equation for this answer.

-8x-7y=-20
-8x-7(2x-16)=-16------------------------Use distributive property to simplify.
-8x-14x+112=-16
-22x+112=-16
       -112    -112
-22x=-128---------------Divide -22 on both sides
x=5.82

Find all the zeros of <br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%20%3D%20%20%7B6x%7D%5E%7B4%7D%20%20%20-%20%20%7B7x%7D%5E%7B
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

  {-1, 1/2, 2/3, 1}

Step-by-step explanation:

I find a graphing calculator to be a most useful tool for problems like this. (See attached.)

_____

First of all, observe that the constant is -2, so 0 is not a zero.

It is often useful to look at the sum of coefficients. Here, that is 0, indicating 1 is a zero.

You can divide that out, or simply continue by looking at the sum of coefficients with odd-degree terms negated. Then you have 6 +7 -4 -7 -2 = 0, indicating -1 is also a zero.

__

At this point, it can be useful to divide out the factors you know. The synthetic division tableaus attached show that work. First is division by (x+1), then by (x -1).

The result of doing that is the quadratic ...

  6x^2 -7x +2 = 0

This can be factored ...

  (6x^2 -3x) -(4x -2) = 0 . . . . . . rewrite -7x and group term pairs

  3x(2x -1) -2(2x -1) = 0 . . . . . . . factor each pair

  (3x -2)(2x -1) = 0 . . . . . . the factorization of the remaining quadratic

The zeros of this are the values of x that make the factors zero: 2/3 and 1/2.

The zeros of the given function f(x) are x ∈ {-1, 1/2, 2/3, 1}.
