3(x+y)=y
y is not equal to zero
*Solution
1. The given equation is 3(x+y) = y and we are tasked to find the ratio between x and y. Distributing 3 to the terms in the parenthesis,
3(x+y) = y
3x + 3y = y
Transposing 3y to the right side OR subtracting 3y from both the left-hand side and the right-hand side of the equation would give
3x = -2y
Dividing both sides of the equation by 3,
x = (-2/3)y
Dividing both sides of the equation by y,
x/y = -2/3
Therefore, the ratio x/y has a value of -2/3 provided that y is not equal to zero.
We need a picture of the lines
Beachside it is supposed to be 619 into that form
Answer:
x - 2, if x > 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertical lines either side of the expression mean absolute value.
The absolute value of a number is its <u>positive numerical value</u>.
if x > 5 then as 5 > 2, the values inside the vertical lines will always be positive. Therefore, we can disregard the absolute value.
Therefore:
x - 2, if x > 5
To find the range (output values) of the expression, substitute x = 5 into the expression:
⇒ 5 - 2 = 3
Therefore, |x - 2| > 3, if x > 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 2 equations represented by the lines on the graph
5x + 4y = 20
2x - 6y = 12
To plot the first equation on the graph, we a assume different points
4y = 20 - 5x
y = (20-5x)/4
y = 5 - 5x/4
If x =0, y = 5
If x = 2, y = 2.5
If x = 4, y = 0,
These points corresponds to the first line that cuts the positive y axis.
The first line that cuts the positive y axis is represented by the equation,
5x + 4y = 20
Since the left region of the line representing equation is shaded, the unshaded side represents
5x + 4y lesser than 20
To plot the second equation on the graph, we a assume different points
-6y = 12-2x
y = (2x-12)/6 = x/3 - 2
if x= 0, y = -2
If x = 3,y = 1
These points corresponds to the second line that cuts the negative y axis.
The second line that cuts the negative y axis is represented by the equation,
2x -6y = 12
Since the downward region of the line representing the equation is shaded, the unshaded side represents
2x -6y greater than 12
