2x+3y=12 x-y=6 solve the following system equations

Answer:

(6, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few different methods to solve system of equations.  For this problem, you can use substitution by solving one of the equations for a variable and then substituting this expression into the other equation to solve for the remaining variable:

x - y = 6, add 'y' to both sides to solve for 'x':  x - y + y = 6 + y or x = 6 + y

Using the expression '6 + y' for the value of 'x' in the second equation:

2x + 3y = 12 or 2(6+y) + 3y = 12 or 12 + 2y + 3y = 12 or 12 + 5y = 12

Subtract 12 from both sides: 12 + 5y - 12 = 12 - 12 or 5y = 0 so y = 0

Now that you know the value of 'y', you can solve for 'x':

x = 6 + 0 or x = 6

Put the values of 'x' and 'y' into an ordered pair: (6,0).

How do I solve this equation?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

y=\frac{7}{2}x+11

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to find the y-intercept (b). In order to find the y-intercept, we can plug in the slope and the (x,y) coordinate pair given to us into the equation to solve for the y-intercept:

y=mx+b

4=(-7/-2)*-2+b

4=14/-2+b

4=-7+b

Add 7 to both sides

b=11

Therefore the equation is:

y=\frac{7}{2}x+11 (note that the fraction is positive since the two negatives cancel out)

Solve for c. a (c−b) = d a. c = d - ab / a b. c = ab - d / a c. c = d ab / a d. c = d - ab / a
Nitella [24]
A(c - b) = d
ac - ab = d
ac = d + ab
c = (d + ab)/a
