3x-4y=1 and x=2y+1 using substitution

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleksandr [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x =-1

y =-1

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this system of equation, using substiution method

3x-4y=1 ........................ equation 1

x=2y+1 ............................  equation 2

subbstitute for x into equation 1

3x-4y=1 ........................ equation 1

3(2y + 1) - 4y = 1

6y + 3 -4y = 1

2y + 3 = 1

collect the like terms

2y = 1- 3

2y= -2

divide both sides by  the coefficient of y which is y

2y/2 = -2/2

y = -1

put the value of y =-1 into equation 2

x=2y+1 ............................  equation 2

x = 2(-1) + 1

x = -2 + 1

x = -1

therefore x =-1 y = -1

Liz is hiking a trail that is 0.8 miles long. Liz hikes the first 2 tenths of the distance by herself. She hikes the of the way
antoniya [11.8K]
0.6 miles.

Since there is 0.8 miles to hike in total, she hiked 0.2 miles.

To solve, we just easily subtract the amount that Liz hiked from the amount that needs to be hiked.

She hiked 0.2 miles, which means we need to subtract 0.2 from 0.8.

8 - 2 = 6

The answer is 0.6 miles.

Solve the following equation
Gnoma [55]
40x+8x^2=0 can be solved for x (there are two solutions):

Divide all 3 terms by the greatest common multiple (which is 8x):

40x+8x^2=0
------------- -----
       8x       8x

5 + x = 0             produces the root x = - 5.   

Setting 8x = 0 and solving for x produces the root x = 0.

Be certain to check these results.  substitute x = -5 into 40x+8x^2=0.  Is the resulting equation true or false?  Next, subs. x=-5 into 40x+8x^2=0.  Is the resulting equation true or false?
