6x + y = -39 3x + 2y = -15 elimination using multiplication

1 answer:

5 0

Multiply the second equation by 2 so that its
6x+4y=-30
then subtract
6x+y=-39
6x+4y=-30
= -3y=-69
divide by -3 to isolate the y
then you get y=23
substitute the y value back into one of the equations to solve for x.
6x+23=-31
solve like you always do and you'll get your x
Congratulations, you solved a problem.

asambeis [7]

Answer:

4x + 5 = 2x + 7

4x + 5 - 2x = 2x - 2x +7

2x + 5 = 7

2x + 5 - 5 = 7 - 5

2x = 2

2x÷2 = 2÷2

x = 1

F(x) = -2x + 9, find x if f(x) = 23

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -2x + 9

f(x) = 23

therefore, f(x) =

-2x + 9 = 23

-2x = 23 - 9

-2x = 14

-x = 14 ÷ 2

-x = 7

x = -7
