and you can expand the numerator if you wish, it won't be simplified further though.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the component form of each vector.
Note that vector c is <4,4> and vector d is <-2,-2>
If one imagined the line that contained each vector, the line for both would have a slope of 1, because
Since they have the same slope they are parallel, but since they are in opposite directions, we often call them "anti-parallel" (simply meaning parallel, but in opposite directions).
If two vectors are parallel, one vector can be multiplied by a scalar to result in the other vector. This means that there is some number "k", such that , or equivalently,
and
.
If and
, we just need to substitute known values and solve for k:
Double checking that k works for the y-coordinates as well:
?
So,
Use PEMDAS:
P Parentheses first
E Exponents (ie Powers and Square Roots, etc.)
MD Multiplication and Division (left-to-right)
AS Addition and Subtraction (left-to-right)

Answer:
The solution is the point (0.5,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
----> equation A
----> equation B
Solve the system by substitution
Substitute equation B in equation A
Solve for x
Adds 5 both sides
Divide by 4 both sides
therefore
The solution is the point (0.5,-3)
<em>Verify your answer using the graph</em>
using a graphing tool
Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs
The intersection point is (0.5,-3)
therefore
The solution is the point (0.5,-3)
see the attached figure
