Answer:
A negitive one :/
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 4
, y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the following system:
{2 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 1)
y = x - 1 | (equation 2)
Express the system in standard form:
{2 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 1)
-x + y = -1 | (equation 2)
Add 1/2 × (equation 1) to equation 2:
{2 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 1)
0 x - y/2 = (-3)/2 | (equation 2)
Multiply equation 2 by -2:
{2 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 1)
0 x+y = 3 | (equation 2)
Add 3 × (equation 2) to equation 1:
{2 x+0 y = 8 | (equation 1)
0 x+y = 3 | (equation 2)
Divide equation 1 by 2:
{x+0 y = 4 | (equation 1)
0 x+y = 3 | (equation 2)
Collect results:
Answer: {x = 4
, y = 3
Answer:
j = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
-13j - 20 = -8j + 20
Add 13 j to each side
-13j+13j - 20 = -8j+13j + 20
-20 = 5j+20
subtract 20 from each side
-20-20 = 5j +20-20
-40 = 5j
Divide by 5
-40/5 = =5j/5
-8 =j
2x = 8 so x = 8/2 = 4
or
3x = 12
x = 12/3
x = 4
answer: x = 4 (answer is your last choice)
