Answer:

x=3, y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-y =6

3x+2y = 21

To use elimination we will multiply the first equation by 2

2(4x-y) =6*2

8x -2y =12

We will add this equation to the second equation to eliminate y

8x -2y =12

3x+2y = 21

-----------------

11x = 33

Divide each side by 11

11x/11 = 33/11

x =3

We still need to solve for y

3x+2y = 21

Substituting x=3

3*3+2y = 21

9+2y =21

Subtract 9 from each side

9-9+2y = 21-9

2y = 12

2y/2 = 12/2

y =6

Answer:

(a) 0

(b) -3/26

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

We essentially plug 1 in for x and 2 in for y.

Our expression is $\frac{2x-y}{y^2+1}$ , so making the correct substitutions yields:

$\frac{2x-y}{y^2+1}=\frac{2*1-2}{2^2+1}=\frac{2-2}{4+1} =\frac{0}{5} =0$

So, the answer for part (a) is 0.

(b)

Again, we're now plugging in 1 for x and 5 for y:

$\frac{2x-y}{y^2+1}=\frac{2*1-5}{5^2+1}=\frac{2-5}{25+1} =\frac{-3}{26} =-\frac{3}{26}$

So, the answer for part (b) is -3/26.

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation -3x2-x-3=0

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

$x=\frac{1+\sqrt{35}i}{-6}\,\, and\,\, x=\frac{1-\sqrt{35}i}{-6}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

the quadratic formula is:

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

a= -2, b = -1 and c =-3

Putting values in the formula

$x=\frac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(-3)(-3)}}{2(-3)}\\x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{-35}}{-6}\\x=\frac{1+\sqrt{-35}}{-6}\,\, and\,\, x=\frac{1-\sqrt{-35}}{-6}\\We\,\, know \,\,that \,\,\sqrt{-1} = i \\x=\frac{1+\sqrt{35}i}{-6}\,\, and\,\, x=\frac{1-\sqrt{35}i}{-6}\\$

So, $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{35}i}{-6}\,\, and\,\, x=\frac{1-\sqrt{35}i}{-6}\\$
