-12x + 18y = 21<br>(6x -9 = -9​
Leokris [45]

Answer:

x = 0 , y = 7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

6 x - 9 = -9

In the second equation, look to solve for x:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

6 x - 9 = -9

Add 9 to both sides:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

6 x = 0

Divide both sides by 6:

{18 y - 12 x = 21

x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into the first equation:

{18 y = 21

x = 0

In the first equation, look to solve for y:

{18 y = 21

x = 0

Divide both sides by 18:

{y = 7/6

x = 0

Collect results in alphabetical order:

Answer: {x = 0 , y = 7/6

Consider the polynomial equation x(x - 3)(x + 6) (x-7) -0. Which of the following are zoros of the
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

The zeros are : 0, 3, -6, 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Zeros of a polynomial is the values at which the polynomial becomes zero. They are also called the roots of the polynomial.

When (x - a)(x - b) = 0, we can say that either (x - a) = 0 or (x - b) = 0. At least one zero renders the whole equation to be zero.

Now, we are given that: x. (x - 3). (x + 6). (x - 7) = 0

⇒ To make the equation zero, at least one of the following should be true:

x = 0

x - 3 = 0  ⇒ x = 3

x + 6 = 0 ⇒ x = -6

x - 7 = 0 ⇒  x = 7

Therefore, x can take any one of the above values and that would make the polynomial zero.
