What is the x-coordinate of the solution of the following system of equations?

1 answer:

8 0

Plug in the x value from the second equation
3(-y+2)+2y=12
use distributive property.
-3y+6+2y=12
since the y values are in the same side of the = sign, just put them together.
-y+6=12
subtract 6 from 6 and 12.
-y=6
since the equation has a negative y, divide what is left by -1.
y= -6.
that is the y value. now plug that in to the first equation.
3x+2(-6)=12
multiply.
3x-12=12add 12 to both 12s
3x=24
divide.
x=8.

the ordered pair is (8, -6), and the x value is 8.

leva [86]

Answer: $x+3y=12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of two lines that are perpendicular to each other is 1.

If one line is $y=3x$ , then its slope = 3 [by comparing to the linear equation y= mx+c, here m=3]

Let n be the slope of the required line, then

$n\times3=-1\\\\\rightarrow\ n=\dfrac{-1}{3}$

Equation of line with slope n and passers through (a,b) is

$(y-b)=n(x-a)$

Equation of line with slope n= $\dfrac{-1}{3}$ and passes through point ( 0,-4) :

$(y-(-4))=\dfrac{-1}{3}(x-0)\\\\\Rightarrow\ y+4=\dfrac{-1}{3}x\\\\\Rightarrow\ -3(y+4)=x\\\\\Rightarrow-3y-12=x\\\\\Rightarrow x+3y=12$

Hence, Required equation : $x+3y=12$

Calculate limits x>-infinity -2x^5-3x+1

Lera25 [3.4K]

Given:

The limit problem is:

$\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)$

To find:

The value of the given limit problem.

Solution:

We have,

$\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)$

In the function $-2x^5-3x+1$ , the degree of the polynomial is 5, which is an odd number and the leading coefficient is -2, which is a negative number.

So, the function approaches to positive infinity as x approaches to negative infinity.

$\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)=\infty$

Therefore, $\lim_{x\to -\infty}(-2x^5-3x+1)=\infty$ .
