5x=4y+8 3y=3x-3 using elimination

Mathematics

suter [353]3 years ago

Let's rewrite the equation with x and y on the left side of the equal sign.  
5x-4y=8 --------(1) 
3x-3y=3---------(2)  
Divide equation (2) by 3, 
x - y= 1 
now we have, 
5x-4y = 8 --------(1) 
x - y = 1 ---------(2)  
To eliminate x, multiply equation (2) by 5. This makes both the coefficients of x to be 5. Subtract the second equation from the first equation.  
5x - 4y = 8 
(2) * 5 5x - 5y = 5 
(-) (+) (-) 
---------------- 
 0x +y =3
 Therefore, y=3 
 Substitute the value of y, in any one of the two equations. Let's substitute y in the second equation.
 x-3=1
 x=4 
 x=4 and y=3

Y= |x-1| and y=3x+2
mart [117]
Y = |x - 1|

and

y = 3x + 2

Equating the values of y, we can write:

|x - 1| = 3x + 2

This means:

A) x - 1 = 3x + 2 

x - 3x = 2 + 1 

-2x = 3
⇒ x = -3/2 = -1.5

B) - ( x - 1) = 3x + 2
3x + x = 1 - 2
4x = -1
⇒ x= -1/4 = - 0.25 

For x = -0.25
y = 3(-0.25) + 2 = 1.25

x = -1.5 is an extraneous root and is not applicable.

So the solution set is (-0.25, 1.25)

Option A gives the approximate solution set.

A figure is translated horizontally 4 units. Which drawing shows a correct translation?
Ray Of Light [21]
Translating something horizontally is just like scooting a glass across a table. It doesn't flip or turn, it just slides. Same would apply for this. You just scoot the image over. Therefore, it would be 'C'
