Multiply both sides of the second equation by 4. That will give you -4x in the second equation which when added to 4x of the first equation will eliminate x.
Second equation:
-x + 3y = 6
Multiply the second equation by 4 on both sides:
-4x + 12y = 26
Answer:
14/5
Step-by-step explanation:
I'd suggest rewriting both mixed numbers as improper fractions. Then we'd have:
14/3 and 5/3
Dividing 14/3 by 5/3 is equivalent to dividing 14 by 5, since the denominators are the same (3).
Quotient is 14/5.
Answer:
a= (y-4x-6)/X
Step-by-step explanation:
Make ax the subject of the formulae
-ax=4x+6-y
Multiply both sides by minus (-)
ax= y-4x-6
Divide both sides by x
a= (y-4x-6)/x
Answer:
y = - 
x + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Here m = - , then
y = - x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (8, - 9) into the partial equation
- 9 = - 20 + c ⇒ c = - 9 + 20 = 11
y = - x + 11 ← equation of line
The answer is 7. if you go ahead and add 6+5 you will get 11 and if you take away 4 you are left with 7. hope this helps. :)
