You can multiply or divide one equation so that it has a variable with a coefficient opposite of the other equation.
Example:
A) 2x + 3y = 6
B) 4x +2y = 20
Notice that neither equation has a "1" or "-1"
Let's multiply Equation A) by -2
A) -4x -6y = -12 Then add it to B)
B) 4x +2y = 20
-4y = 8
y= -2

A) 2x + 3*-2 = 6
2x = 12
x = 6

For the function f(x)=1/x which of these could be a value of F(x) when x is close to zero
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The function in quadrant I, where y is increasing upward.

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller x becomes, the larger f(x) becomes. The answer is that f(x) or y approaches infinity as x becomes smaller and smaller. This helps to understand why division by zero is undefined.

Here you go! Hope this helps!! :-)
