Naddik [55]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 8

y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations called simultaneous equations. We shall solve it by elimination method Step 1We shall label the equations (1) and (2)−3y−4x=−11.....(1)3y−5x=−61......(2)Step 2Multiply each term in equation (1) by 1 to give equation (3)1(-3y-4x=-11).....(1)-3y-4x=-11....(3)Step 3Multiply each term in equation 2 by -1 to give equation (4)-1(3y−5x=−61)......(2)-3y+5x=61.....(4)Step 4-3y-4x=-11....(3)-3y+5x=61.....(4)Subtract each term in equation (3) from each term in equation (4)-3y-(-3y)+5x-(-4x)=61-(-11)-3y+3y+5x+4x=61+110+9x=729x=72Step 5Divide both sides of the equation by 9, the coefficient of the unknown variable x to find the value of x 9x/9 = 72/9x = 8Step 6Put in x = 8 into equation (2)3y−5x=−61......(2)3y-5(8)=-613y-40=-61Collect like terms by adding 40 to both sides of the equation 3y-40+40=-61+403y=-21Divide both sides by 3, the coefficient of y to find the value of y 3y/3=-21/3y=-7Therefore, the values of x and y that satisfy the equations are 8 and -7 respectively

Vertical line that passes through the point (3,-8)
Marina86 [1]
Hi there! The answer is x = 3.

All vertical lines have an undetermined slope (since the formula which represents the slope has a denominator of 0). Therefore the general formula of a vertical line is the following x = c, with c representing the x-coordinate of the point that is passed by the line. Therefore, in your situation we get the line x = 3. When we plot this line, we can see it is a vertical line with x-coordinate 3 and that all values of y are passed, also y = - 8.
