Your answer would be, You can use the Elimination Method, by Multiplying, One or Both Equations by a Constant.



Solve System of Linear Equation:

3x - 6y = -8, -1/4x + 4y = 6 ====> y = 32 /21; x = 8 / 21


Steps:

[ 3x - 6y = -8, -1 / 4x + 4y = 6 ]


Isolate x for 3x - 6y = -8: x = -8 + 6y / 3

3x - 6y = -8

Add 6y both sides:

3x - 6y + 6y = -8 + 6y

Simplify:

3x = - 8 + 6y

Divide Both sides by 3:

3x / x = -8 / 3 + 6y / 3

Simplify:

x = -8 + 6y / 3

Substitute:

x = -8 + 6y / 3

[ 1 / 4 * -8 + 6y / 3 + 4y = 6 ]

Isolate:

-1 / 4 -8 + 6y / 3 + 4y = 6

y = 32 / 21

For x = -8 + 6y / 3

Substitute:

y = 32 / 21

x = -8 + 6 / 3 * 32 / 21

-8 + 6 / 3 * 32 / 21

x = 8 / 21



The Solution to the Systems of Equations are: y = 32 / 21; x = 8 / 21




Hope that helps!!! : )

To create opposite terms for the x-variable, you need to multiply the second equation by a number that will result in the x term becoming –3x. That number would need to be a multiple of the denominator, which is 3. Multiplying the second equation by 9 would create opposite terms for the x-variable.

Find the scale factor that was used to create the dilaton below
Ne4ueva [31]

Let:

k\cdot IW=I^{\prime}W^{\prime}

Where:

k = scale factor

IW = 12

I'W'= 8

so, solving for k:

\begin{gathered} k=\frac{I^{\prime}W^{\prime}}{IW} \\ k=\frac{8}{12}=\frac{2}{3} \end{gathered}

Answer:

\large\boxed{Q1.\ \text{2 times greater}}\\\\\boxed{Q2.\ J. 3}\\\\\boxed{Q3.\ B. -\dfrac{4}{5}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Q1.

We have the equation of a line <em>p </em>in the standard form

4x-3y=7

Convert to the slope-intercept form:

4x-3y=7               <em>subtract 3x from both sides</em>

-3y=-4x+7              <em>divide both sides by (-3)</em>

y=\dfrac{4}{3}x-\dfrac{7}{3}

The slope m_1=\dfrac{4}{3}

From the table we have the points (4, 3) and (7, 5). Calculate the slope of line <em>q</em>:

m_2=\dfrac{5-3}{7-4}=\dfrac{2}{3}

Divide the slope of <em>p</em> by the slope of <em>q</em>:

\dfrac{4}{3}:\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{4}{3}\cdot\dfrac{3}{2}=2

Q2.

Parallel line have the same slope. Therefore, if we have the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, then we have the slope:

y=3x+2\to m=3

Q3.

Parallel line have the same slope.

Calculate the slope from given points (-11, 5) and (-6, 1):

y=\dfrac{1-5}{-6-(-11)}=\dfrac{-4}{-6+11}=\dfrac{-4}{5}=-\dfrac{4}{5}
