(Note: I am solving the system of equations using the elimination method)

1. Cancel out a variable and add the polynomials
x + y = 35
x - y = 9
2x = 44
2       2
x  = 22

2. Substitute and solve for the other variable
(22) + y = 35
22 + y = 35
-22         -22
y = 13

3. Substitute Ordered Pairs (Optional)
(22) + (13) = 35
35 = 35

22 women and 13 men were at the game.

Find the x-intercept and the y-intercept of 2x + 6y =24
viktelen [127]

Answer:

x-intercept = 12, y-intercept = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x and y intercept, substitute 0 in for both values.

<u>Substitute 0 into x:</u>

2(0) + 6y = 24

6y = 24

<u>Divide each side by 6:</u>

y = 4

<u>Substitute 0 into y:</u>

2x + 6(0) = 24

2x = 24

<u>Divide each side by 2:</u>

x = 12
