Y = x – 6 x = –4 what is the solution to the system of equations? (–8, –4) (–4, –8) (–4, 4) (4, –4

fredd [130]

Answer:

(- 4, - 10 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x - 6 → (1)

x = - 4 → (2)

Substitute x = - 4 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = - 4 - 6 = - 10

Solution is (- 4, - 10 )

Is (1, 3) a solution to the system of equations listed below? (1 point) y= 6x -3 y = x - 2

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The solution for given system of equation is: $x=\frac{1}{5}\:and\:y=\frac{-9}{5}$ and ordered pair is: $\mathbf{(\frac{1}{5},\frac{-9}{5})}$

So, (1,3) is not solution to the given system of equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

we can solve the system of equations to find the value of x and y and then verify if (1,3) is a solution or not.

The system of equation given is:

$y=6x-3\\y=x-2$

Solving:

Let:

$y=6x-3--eq(1)\\y=x-2--eq(2)$

Put value of y from equation 2 into equation 1

$y=6x-3\\Put\:y=x-2\\x-2=6x-3\\x-6x=-3+2\\-5x=-1\\x=\frac{-1}{-5}\\x=\frac{1}{5}$

Now, put value of x in equation 2 to find value of y

$y=x-2\\Put\:x=\frac{1}{5} \\y=\frac{1}{5} -2\\y=\frac{1-2*5}{5} \\y=\frac{1-10}{5}\\ y=\frac{-9}{5}$

So, the solution for given system of equation is: $x=\frac{1}{5}\:and\:y=\frac{-9}{5}$ and ordered pair is: $\mathbf{(\frac{1}{5},\frac{-9}{5})}$

So, (1,3) is not solution to the given system of equations.
