Answer:
(-2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equations:
-3x + 2y = 12
x = 2y - 8
You can 'substitute' the expression '2y - 8' for the value of 'x' in the first equation and solve for 'y':
-3(2y - 8) + 2y = 12
Distribute: -6y + 24 + 2y = 12
Combine like terms: -4y + 24 = 12
Subtract 24 from both sides: -4y + 24 - 24 = 12 - 24 or -4y = -12
Divide both sides by -4: -4y/-4 = -12/-4 or y = 3
Use y = 3 to solve for 'x':
x = 2(3) - 8 or 6 - 8
x = -2
(-2, 3)
Answer:
x=2.2
y=-3.4
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract the second from the first
-5x=-11
x=2=2
substituting by x in the first equation
so y=-3.4

Question:
Find the gradient of the line passing through (6,8) and (4,10).
Answer:
-1 is the right answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of the line = The gradient of the line
Gradient of the line is known as change in the value of y-axis by change in the value of x-axis
Gradient = ∆y\∆x
