Y=1/2x +5 Y=-3/2x-7 Find x and y

Mathematics

gayaneshka [121]3 years ago

I'm going to use the substitution method. 

If y = - 3/2 - 7, then:

1/2x + 5 = - 3/2x - 7

Combine like terms: 

4/2x = - 12. Mutiply both sides by 2/4 to get x = -12 (2/4)

Simplify to get:

x = - 6.

Plug - 6 back in for x in either equation.

Y = 1/2( - 6) + 5 which becomes Y = - 3 + 5.

X = - 6, Y = 2

Cloud [144]
It depends how many decimal points you are moving. If it's 1 decimal point then the point would move to the right and the answer would be 3246.50if it was two decimal places then it moves two to the right and the answer would 32465.0. But you don't need to put the .0 at the end so it will be 32465
