Solve the simultaneous Equation using the two <br> methods<br>4m=n +7<br>3m+ 4n+9=0​
GrogVix [38]

Elimination method:

4m = n + 7

3m + 4n + 9 = 0

<em>First, let's get the equations in the same form.</em>

4m - n - 7 = 0

3m + 4n + 9 = 0

<em>Now let's make multiply the first equation by 4 so we can eliminate n.</em>

16m - 4n - 28 = 0

+3m + 4n + 9 = 0

<em>Now we can add the equations.</em>

16m + 3m - 4n + 4n - 28 + 9 = 0

19m + 0n - 19 = 0

19m - 19 = 0

19m = 19

<em>m = 1</em>

<em>Now we put m back into one (or both) of the original equations.</em>

4(1) = n + 7

4 = n + 7

<em>n = -3</em>

<em>If you plug m into the other equation, you get the same result.</em>

<em />

Substitution method:

4m = n + 7

3m + 4n + 9 = 0

<em>With this method, we plug one of the equations into the other one. I'm going to use m in the second equation as a substitute for m in the second equation.</em>

3m + 4n + 9 = 0

3m = -4n - 9

m = (-4/3)n - 3

<em>Now I can substitute the right side into the first equation like so:</em>

4[(-4/3)n - 3] = n + 7

(-16n)/3 - 12 = n + 7

(-16n)/3 = n + 19

-16n = 3(n + 19)

-16n = 3n + 57

0 = 16n + 3n + 57

0 = 19n + 57

0 = 19n/19 + 57/19

0 = n + 3

<em>-3 = n</em>

<em>And then we put that back into one of the original equations.</em>

4m = n + 7

4m = -3 + 7

4m = 4

<em>m = 1</em>

Hopefully you learned something from this.

Using the slope formula, find the slope of the line through the points (0,0) and (5,10).
pychu [463]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

First, we need to find the slope of the line using <u><em>slope formula*</em></u>.

m = \frac{10 - 0}{5 - 0} = \frac{10}{5} = 2

Slope of the line: <em>2</em>

Second, we determine the <em><u>y-intercept</u></em> using the slope we just found, one of the given points, and <em><u>slope-intercept form**</u></em>.

10 = 2(5) + b\\\\10 = 10 + b\\\\0 = b

Because <em>b = 0</em>, this means that the y-intercept is the origin, (0,0), so it is not written in the equation.

Finally, we create the equation of the line.

y = 2x

Slope formula: <em>y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁</em>

Slope-intercept form: <em>y = mx + b</em>
