Answer:
B. (-2,-4)
Explanation
Given equations:
y = 3x + 2
y = -2x - 8
Solving both equations will yield the values of x and y;
Solution:
y = 3x + 2 ----- (i)
y = -2x - 8 ------ (ii)
Using substitution method, input equation i, into ii
3x + 2 = -2x - 8
Collect like terms and solve;
3x + 2x = -8 -2
5x = -10
x = -2
Then put x = -2 into i, to find y
y = (-2 x 3) + 2
y = -6 + 2 = -4
So, the solution of the equation is B. (-2,-4)
Multiply the first equation by 2 to then use elimination by adding the 2 equations.
So, 14x-2y=14
+. x+2y=6
Equals 15x=20 so x=20/15=4/3
Plug in to first equation to get y
7(4/3)-y=7
28/3-y=7
28/3-y=21/3
So y=7/3
Plug both x and y into second equation to check
4/3+2(7/3)=
4/3+14/3=18/3=6 it works
So x=4/3, y=7/3
Hope this helps! Have a blessed day!
So,...
the slope intercept form is y = mx+b
the m is the slope, and the b is the coordinate that intercepts the y-axis
so to start you off, 4x - 9y = 2
4x - 9y = 2
-4x - 4y
-9y = -4y +2
divide both sides by -9
<u>-9y </u>= <u>-4y + 2</u>
-9 -9
y = 4/9 x - 2/9
Answer:
The answer would be X=24
Step-by-step explanation:
Y is multiplied by 3 to get the answer 30. Because they are varied directly you have to multiply the 8 by 3 to get your answer!
