5x + 2y=7 - 2x + 6y=9

Mathematics
1 answer:
ollegr [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = \frac{12}{17} or 0.706

y = \frac{59}{34} or 1.735

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2y=7    ----->(eq 1)

- 2x + 6y=9 ----->(eq 2)

Multiply (eq 1) with 3

3×(5x + 2y) = 3×7  

15x + 6y = 21  ----->(eq 3)

substract (eq 3) from (eq 2)

- 2x + 6y - (15x + 6y) = 9-21

- 2x + 6y - 15x - 6y = 9-21

- 2x - 15x + 6y - 6y = 9-21

-17x = -12

x = -12 ÷ -17

x = \frac{12}{17}

put x = \frac{12}{17} in (eq 1)

5*\frac{12}{17} + 2y = 7

2y = 7- 5*\frac{12}{17}

2y = \frac{7*17 - 60}{17}

2y = \frac{119- 60}{17}

2y = \frac{59}{17}

y = \frac{59}{17*2}

y = \frac{59}{34}

Y=6x-11 -2x-3y=-7 solve each system of equation by substitution
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

(2, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 6x - 11 → (1)

- 2x - 3y = - 7 → (2)

Substitute y = 6x - 11 into (2)

- 2x - 3(6x - 11) = - 7 ← distribute and simplify left side

- 2x - 18x + 33 = - 7

- 20x + 33 = - 7 ( subtract 33 from both sides )

- 20x = - 40 ( divide both sides by - 20 )

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 6(2) - 11 = 12 - 11 = 1

Solution is (2, 1 )

The function, f(x) = –2x2 + x + 5, is in standard form. The quadratic equation is 0 = –2x2 + x + 5, where a = –2, b = 1, and c =
avanturin [10]
Given:

The function, f(x) = -2x^2 + x + 5

Quadratic equation: 0 = -2x^2 + x +5
where a = -2
            b = 1
            c = 5

The discriminate b^2 - 4ac = 41

To solve for the zeros of the quadratic function, use this formula:

x = ( -b +-√ (b^2 - 4ac) ) / 2a

x = ( 1 + √41 ) / 4  or 1.85
x = ( 1 - √41 ) / 4  or -1.35

Therefore, the zeros of the quadratic equation are 1.85 and -1.35.
