9x+y=43 4x+2y=16 using the substitution method

1 answer:

6 0

Isolate y for substitution, and we have y=43-9x.

Substitute y in the next equation, and we have
4x+2(43-9x)=16, which leads to
4x+86-18x=16,
-14x=-70
x=5

Plug x into an equation, now that we have found the value.
9(5)+y=43
45+y=43
y=-2

Now double check our answer:

9(5)+(-2)=?
45+(-2)=43

4(5)+2(-2)=?
20+(-4)=16

So, x=5 and y=-2.

Jenna found three solution to a linear equation she graphed them, but they don't lie in a straight line. What errors could jenna

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

A system of linear equation could only have 1 solution. This is because the straight lines will only have to meet, cross, or intersect each other once.

There are many different methods in arriving to the final answer. However, errors cannot be perfectly avoided. One of these errors to mistakenly identify equations as linear. It is important that we know that the equations we are dealing with are of exact or correct characteristics.

Also, if she had used substitution method, she might have mistakenly taken the value of one variable for the other.

Vlad [161]

Answer:

B. 7(x − 5)(y + 2)

Explanation:

A. 7(2x − 5)(y + 2) = 14xy + 28x − 35y − 70 (Wrong)

B. 7(x − 5)(y + 2) = 7xy + 14x − 35y − 70 (Correct)

C. 7(x − 2)(y + 5) = 7xy + 35x− 14y − 70 (Wrong)

D. 7(x − 10)(y + 2) = 7xy + 14x − 70y − 140 (Wrong)
