Solve the system of equations by substitution.

Mathematics
1 answer:
mojhsa [17]3 years ago

Answer:

6 = −4x + y

−5x − y = 21  

Answer:  (-3, -6)


2x + y = 20 6x – 5y = 12  

Answer:

(7 , 6)


Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system of equations by substitution.

6 = −4x + y --> y = 4x + 6

−5x − y = 21

Substitute y = 4x + 6 into −5x − y = 21

−5x − (4x + 6) = 21

-5x - 4x - 6 = 21

-9x = 27

  x = - 3

y = 4(-3) + 6

y = -12 + 6

y = -6

(-3, -6)


Solve the system by the elimination method.

2x + y = 20

multiply the equation by (-3) ; 2x + y = 20  so

-6x - 3y = - 60

6x – 5y = 12

------------------add

-8y = - 48

  y = 6

2x + y = 20

2x + 6 = 20

2x = 14

 x = 7

(7 , 6)

Determine the intercepts of the line.
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

y-intercept: (0,5)

x-intercept: (5/2,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x+7=2y-3

-4(0)+7=2y-3

0+7=2y-3

7=2y-3

10=2y

5=y <-- y-intercept: (0,5)

-4x+7=2y-3

-4x+7=2(0)-3

-4x+7=-3

-4x=-10

x=\frac{5}{2} <-- x-intercept: (5/2,0)

What is the equation of the following line written in general form? (The y-intercept is -1.)
Strike441 [17]
2x-y-1=0

There are 2 ways that you can solve this . Either plug in the x and y value into each equation until it is right or rewrite the equation .
the equation in slope intercept form is y=2x-1
When you get y by itself in the last one it is also equal to y=2x-1
For both ways work is attached !
