Sally has 3 pencils. Her teacher gives her 3 more. How much does she have in total?
Answer:
A function can be any set of points where one input is equal to one output. You cannot have two X values with the same Y value, for example.
<u>I believe the answer is neither</u> because in both sets you can see they have different Y values for the X values 2 and 9.
Equation 1) 4x + 2y = 8
Equation 2) 16x - y = 14
Multiply all of equation 2 by 2.
2) 2(16x - y = 14)
2) 32x - 2y = 28
1) 4x + 2y = 8
Add equations together.
36x = 36
Divide both sides by 36.
x = 1
Plug in 1 for x in the first equation.
4x + 2y = 8
4(1) + 2y = 8
4 + 2y = 8
Subtract 4 from both sides.
2y = 8 - 4
2y = 4
Divide both sides by 2.
y = 4/2
y = 2
So, x = 1, y = 2
~Hope I helped!~
