4x = 3y - 8
4 4
x = ³/₄y - 2
-16x + 4y = 32
-16(³/₄y - 2) + 4y = 32
-16(³/₄y) + 16(2) + 4y = 32
-12y + 32 + 4y = 32
-12y + 4y + 32 = 32
-8y + 32 = 32
- 32 - 32
-8y = 0
-8 -8
y = 0
x = ³/₄y - 2
x = ³/₄(0) - 2
x = 0 - 2
x = -2
(x, y) = (-2, 0)
In order to determine the number of boys in the class, first, we set-up an algebraic equation. Let x = number of boys in the class. The equation is then: x + 4x = 45. This is because the number of girls is 4 times greater than the number of boys. After solving the algebraic equation, it is then determined that there are 9 boys in the Chemistry class.
Answer:
(-12, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
(8, -1) => (-2/3x, f(-2/3x))
therefore
-2/3x = 8
x = 8 *-3/2
x = -12
f(-2/3x) = -1
therefore, the corresponding point is:
(-12,-1)
