What is the solution to the system of equations?

Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-4, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

The two equations have the same coefficient for y, so you can eliminate y by subtracting one equation from the other. Here the x coefficient is largest for the first equation, so it will work best to subtract the second equation.

  (3x +y) -(2x +y) = (3) -(7)

  x = -4 . . . . . . . . simplify

Now, we can find y by substituting this value for x.

  2(-4) +y = 7

  y = 7 +8 = 15 . . . . . add 8 to both sides of the equation

The solution is (x, y) = (-4, 15).

Explanation:

Make use of the properties of equality.

  a = 2b +6 . . . . . given

  a = 9b -8 . . . . . given

  2b +6 = 9b -8 . . . . . . . substitution property of equality

  6 = 7b -8 . . . . . . . . . . . subtraction property of equality

  14 = 7b . . . . . . . . . . . . . addition property of equality

  2 = b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . division property of equality

  b = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . symmetric property of equality

Can some one help me.
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

x = ± 2, x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

note that x = 2 gives

2³ - 3(2)² - 4(2) + 12 = 8 - 12 - 8 + 12 = 0

Hence x = 2 is a root and (x - 2) is a factor

x³ - 3x² - 4x + 12 ÷ (x - 2)

= (x - 2)(x² - x - 6)

= (x - 2)(x + 2)(x - 3), hence

(x - 2)(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3
