Answer:

(5,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+3y=17

3x+2y=13

So elimination sounds fun but we will have to do manipulation:

Multiply top equation by 2 and bottom equation by 3. This will cause the second term in both by 6y which means we would be setup for elimination.

8x+6y=34

9x+6y=39

--------------------now subtract the equations

-x+0=-5

So x=5

Now plug it into either question (no matter which-pick and choose)

I will go with the second original 3x+2y=13

So if x=5 we have 15+2y=13

Subtract 15 on both sides: 2y=-2

Now divide both sides by 2: y=-1

Answer (5,-1)

If y= x+3/6-x, what is the value of y when x =7i?

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : y = $\frac{x+3}{6-x}$

If x = 7i

y = $\frac{7i+3}{6-7i}$

By simplifying denominator of the given rational expression,

y = $\frac{7i+3}{6-7i}\times \frac{6+7i}{6+7i}$

y = $\frac{(7i+3)(6+7i)}{6^2-(7i)^2}$

y = $\frac{7i(6+7i)+3(6+7i)}{36-49i^2}$

y = $\frac{42i+49i^2+18+21i}{36+49}$ [Since, i² = (-1)]

y = $\frac{63i-49+18}{85}$

y = $\frac{63i-31}{85}$

y = $-\frac{31}{85}+\frac{63}{85}i$

Therefore, Option (2) is the correct option.
