A system of equations is a collection of two or more equations with the same variables. When solving this system, u need to find the unknown variables. One way of solving a system of equations is by substitution.
example :
2x + 2y = 6 (equation 1)
3x + y = 4 (equation 2)
we need to pick a variable and isolate it. The easiest one to pick since it is already by itself is the y in the second equation.
3x + y = 4.....subtract 3x from both sides
y = -3x + 4
now we can sub -3x + 4 in for y in the 1st equation...u have to make sure u sub it back into the 1st equation and not the same equation u used to find it.
2x + 2y = 6.....sub in -3x + 4 in for y and solve for x
2x + 2(-3x + 4) = 6...distribute thru the parenthesis
2x - 6x + 8 = 6...subtract 12 from both sides
2x - 6x = 6 - 8...simplify
-4x = -2...divide both sides by -4
x = -2/-4
x = 1/2
now that we have a numerical number for x, u can sub this back into either of ur equations to find a numerical answer for y.
y = -3x + 4...when x = 1/2
y = -3(1/2) + 4
y = -3/2 + 4
y = -3/2 + 8/2
y = 5/2
so ur solution is : (1/2,5/2) <===
and u can check ur answers by subbing them into ur equations to see if they satisfy both equations...because for it to be a solution to this system, it has to satisfy both equations and not just one of them
<span> The ratio compares two quantities (in this case blue and white parts).
A unit rate (or unit ratio) describes how many units of the first type of quantity corresponds to one unit of the second type of quantity. In our case the first type of quantity is blue parts and the second is white parts, so we should find how many blue parts correspond to one white part.
The ratio is: 5/4
We will obtain the unit ratio if we divide each number with 4 in order to get 1 - as a second quantity.
So, (5/4)/(4/4)= (5/4)/1
The unit ratio is: </span>
<span>(5/4)/1.</span>
Answer: y=2/3x+3
*Remember the original equation in slope-intercept form*
y=mx+b
*label that with what each letter stands for*
m=slope/rate of change
x=variable
b=y-intercept
*Substitute this information into the equation
y=2/3x+3
