Answer:

When (-1,-4) is substituted into the first equation, the equation is true.

When (-1,-4) is substituted into the second equation, the equation is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is

x-y=3

7x-y=-3

Make x the subject in the top equation to get:

x=y+3

Put x=y+3 in the bottom equation to get:

7(y+3)-y=-3

Expand

7y+21-y=-3

7y-y=-3-21

6y=-24

y=-4

Put y=-4 into x=y+3 to get

x=-4+3=-1

Hence the point (-1,-4) is a solution to both equation

(×+2) +(4×-122)=180 need help with this problem

So first you need to open the brackets, so it would be x+2+4x-122=180. Then we can add the 4x and the other x to make 5x, and then by doing 2-122 we get -120. This gives us the equation 5x-120=180. We then isolate the variable by moving the -120 to the other side of the equation and becoming a positive, so it would look like 5x=180+120. Then, we have 5x=300. 300 divides by 5 is 60 making X=60. Hope this helps!

Is y= x + 2 and y= -x + 3 perpendicular lines?

Vlad [161]

I believe y=x+2 and y=-x+3 are perpendicular lines.
