Answer:
1. y=5 and x=-5
2. y=2 and x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
1.y=-5x-19
y=-6x-24
since both equations are equal to y, they are also equal to eachother
-5x-19=-6x-24
addition P.O.E.
x-19=-24
addition P.O.E.
x=-5
substitute x into one equation
y=-5*-5-19
y=6
2. y=-6x-22
y=-3x-10
since both equations are equal to y, they are also equal to eachother
-6x-22=-3x-10
addition P.O.E.
-22=3x-10
addition P.O.E.
-12=3x
division P.O.E.
-4=x
substitute x into one equation
y=-3*-4-10
y=2
3y= 5x-2
so the slope is 5/3
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x + y = 3 → (1)
2x - y = 6 → (2)
Adding the 2 equations term by term eliminates the y- term, that is
3x = 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 3
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 5 on both sides, to get x=4
