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

What is the distance between (−5,−4) and (-6,4)?
Helga [31]

The distance formula is:  d  =  sqrt( (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 )

 

For this problem, let (-5, -4) be the "first" point, so  x1 = -5  and  y2 = -4

                      and let (-6, 4) be the "second" point, so  x2 = -6  and  y2 = 4.

 

Then:  d  =  sqrt( (-6 - -5)2 + (4 - -4)2 )  =  sqrt( (-1)2 + (8)2 )  =  sqrt( 1 + 64 )  =  sqrt( 65)

 

The distance formula is just the Pythagorean Theorem applied to an x-y graph.

 

You would get the same final answer if you let (-5, -4) be the second point and (-6, 4) be the first point.
