If we are eliminating x, we would multiply the 2nd equation by -5
5x + 18y = 23
x + 3y = 2....multiply by -5
-----------------
5x + 18y = 23
-5x - 15y = - 10 (result of multiplying by -5)
----------------add
0 + 3y = 13.....bye-bye x :)
Divide both sides by the numeric factor on the left side then solve x=9
<span>-3|15 - s| + 2s^3 when s = -3 is
</span>-3|15 - (-3)| + 2(-3)^3 = <span>-3|15 + 3| + 2(-27) = </span><span>-3|18| + (-54) = -3(18) - 54 = -54 - 54 = -108</span>
Answer:
x intercept. The x intercept is the point where the line crosses the x axis. At this point y = 0. y intercept. The y intercept is the point where the line crosses the y axis.
