Solve the following system of equations by substitution. <br> 2x - y = 6<br> x + y = 6

m_a_m_a [10]

y=-x+6

2x-(-x+6)=6

3x=12

x=4

4+y=6

y=2

Solve for x ~<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3%20%5C%3A%20%2814%20-%205x%29%20%3D16%20-%20%2012x" id="TexFormula1" title="

$3(14 - 5x) = 16 - 12x$

Distribute 3 throught the parentheses

$42 - 15x = 16-12x$

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

$42 - 15x + 12x = 16$

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

$- 15x+12x=16 - 42$

Collect like terms

$- 3x = - 26$

Divide both sides of the equation by -3

$\boxed{x = \frac{26}{3} }$

Does the point (0, 0) satisfy the equation y = 9x?

miskamm [114]

Answer:

yes it does

Step-by-step explanation:

because the equation y=9x does not have a y-intercept (all slopes come in the form y=mx+b -- it can be written differently though) and since there is no 'b' that means the y-intercept is 0. So whenever there is no y-intercept, the slope starts at 0.

Solve for y. 4y+5/3 = y-8/2 y = -4 y = -5 y = -8

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

<h3>y = -34/5</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{4y+5}{3}=\dfrac{y-8}{2}\qquad\text{multiply both sides by }\ 2\cdot3=6\\\\6\!\!\!\!\diagup^2\cdot\dfrac{4y+5}{\not3_1}=6\!\!\!\!\diagup^3\cdot\dfrac{y-8}{\not2_1}\\\\2(4y+5)=3(y-8)\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\(2)(4y)+(2)(5)=(3)(y)+(3)(-8)\\\\8y+10=3y-24\qquad\text{subtract 10 from both sides}\\\\8y=3y-34\qquad\text{subtract 3y from both sides}\\\\5y=-34\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\\boxed{y=-\dfrac{34}{5}}$
