Solve the system of linear equations by substitution. 2x-y=3 x+5y=14

1 answer:

4 0

Let 2x – y = 3 ——— equation 1

Let x + 5y = 14 ——— equation 2

Making x the subject in eqn 1, = x = y + 3 / 2 ——— eqn 3

• Put eqn 3 in eqn 2

(y + 3 / 2) + 5y = 14

6y = 14 – 3/2

6y = 25/2

y = 25/12

• put y = 25/12 in eqn 3

x = (25/12 + 3/2)

x = 43/12

What property of operations can be used to justify that the two expressions in this equation are equivalent? 6x^2 +4x=4x + 6x^2

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Commutative

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four basic property of operations to solve an algebraic expressions. They are associative, commutative, distributive and identity.

The expression given is : $6x^2 + 4x=4x+6x^2$

So the given algebraic expression is a commutative property of operations. The commutative property states that when any two numbers are added in an expression the sum of the numbers are the same regardless of the order of the numbers that are added.

Thus the sum of the above expression will be same in which ever order the numbers are added.

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you mean "squashed" or "stretched" vertically by a factor of 5.

f(x) is the original parabola equation

g(x) = 5f(x) is vertically stretched by a factor of 5

(x,y) -> (x , 5y)

Find the intercepts of the graph of the equation y=4, y=-18, y=16, y=-7

Naya [18.7K]

All of these have no x-intercepts, since x-intercepts require y to be 0. Their y-intercepts are:
(0, 4)
(0, -18)
(0, 16)
(0, -7)
respectively.
