Answer:
5x+3y=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the slope intercept form then rearrange
Take the second equation and flip it around so the y on the left ends up on the right and the 4x on the right ends up on the left. This makes all negatives positive and all positives negative. -4x + 12 = y
Then add the first equation to the second equation
4x +12 = -7y
<u>-4x + 12 </u>=<u> y </u> this eliminates the x's
<u>24</u> = -<u> 6y</u> then divide by - 6
- 6 - 6
- 4 = y<u>
</u>So if you know that y = negative 4, you can substitute into either equation. I pick the second one because I am a lazy person.
-y + 12 = 4 x
-(-4) + 12 = 4 x combine your numbers<u>
</u> <u> 16 </u> = <u>4 x </u> then divide by 4<u>
</u> 4 = x
So your solution is: x = 4 and y = -4 or this is also written (4, -4)
Does that work for you?
The answer is -4,7
The denominator can't equal zero. Factor the denominator:
x^2 - 3x - 28=
(X - 7)(x + 4); next set each set of parentheses equal to 0;
x - 7 = 0; so x=7 is one value
x + 4 = 0; so x=-4 is the other
Remember, x = 7 and x= -4 make the denominator zero, which is a "restriction" because you can't divide by zero.
Since we know a triangle only has 180 degrees we can say:
99+3x+x+5=180
Then we can solve for x:
4x+104=180
4x=76
x=19
