You solve this by plugging one equation into the other. Usually you have to rewrite one equation to make this work. In this case I choose to rewrite y-4x=0 as y=4x.
After plugging it into the second, you get:
3x + 6*4x = 9 => 27x = 9 => x=1/3
Putting this solution back into y=4x gives us y=4/3
Answer:
(0,1/5) and (1/9,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
3/5x +1/3y=1/15
To find intercepts, plug in 0
y-intercept: 3/5(0) + 1/3y=1/15
y=1/15*3 = 3/15 = 1/5 or 0.2
x-intercept: 3/5x + 1/3(0) = 1/15
3x=1/15*5/3
x=5/45= 1/9
Because you have two variables and only one equation, you can only solve for approximate answers, and not complete, absolute answers.
<h3><u>You can simplify this equation to x = -4y + 12</u></h3>
y - 3 = -1/4(x + 3)
Distributive property.
y - 3 = -1/4x - 3/4
Multiply all terms by 4.
4y - 12 = -x
Multiply all terms by -1
-4y + 12 = x
The answer is c)32 hope this helps
