2x - 5x + 4 = 0
- 3x = - 4
x = 4/3
If I've read this correctly, it looks like this.
If that is correct, then the first step is to put the top part of the denominator over 3x
The next part is to flip a three tier fraction. I'm afraid I have to show what happens. My latex is not that strong.
What you get is
This is just about your final answer. You could write it as
Part A: Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of
the equations y = 4-x and y = 2x + 3 intersect are the solutions of the
equation
4-x = 2x + 3.
Because the point where the graphs intersect is a point that meets both rules (functions) y = 4 - x and y = 2x + 3 meaning that y from y = 4 - x equals y from 2x + 3 and also both x have the same value.
Part B: Make tables to find the solution to 4-x = 2x + 3. Take the integer values of x between -3 and 3.
x values 4 -x 2x + 3
-3 4-(-3)=7 2(-3)+3 =-3
-2 4-(-2)=6 2(-2)+3 =-1
-1 4-(-1)=5 2(-1)+3 = 1
0 4-0=4 2(0)+3 = 3
1 4-1=3 2(1)+3=5
2 4-2=2 2(2)+3 = 7
3 4-3=1 2(3)+3 = 9
The the solution is between x = 0 and x =1
Part C: How can you solve the equation 4-x = 2x + 3 graphically?
Draw in a same graph both functions y= 4 - x and y = 2x +3.
Then read the x-coordinates of the intersection point. That is the solution.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: Step 1: Multiply each equation by a suitable number so that the two equations have the same leading coefficient. ...
Step 2: Subtract the second equation from the first.
Step 3: Solve this new equation for y.
Step 4: Substitute y = 2 into either Equation 1 or Equation 2 above and solve for x.
