Bisects means to separate in equal parts, meaning each part is equal. This means the equations on each side of the line are equal. Once you equate them, you combine like terms finding your answer.
1) 2x+ 3=x+7
-x -x
x+3 = 7
-3 -3
Answer: x=4 (do this for the others)
2) x=7/2
3) x=5/2
Answer:
The value of x is 1 and y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x²- 3x - 1;
y = x - 3
2x²- 3x - 1 = x - 3
2x² - 3x - 1 - x + 3 = 0
2x² - 4x + 2 = 0
take 2 as common
2(x² - 2x + 1) = 0
x² - 2x + 1 = 0
x² - x - x + 1 = 0
x(x - 1) - 1(x - 1) = 0
(x - 1) (x - 1) = 0
x - 1 = 0 or x - 1 = 0
x = 1 or x = 1
Now,
y = x - 3
y = 1 - 3
y = - 2
Thus, The value of x is 1 and y is -2
