Answer:
The value of a is 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given with the following pair of the linear system of equations below;
and
.
Also, the solution is given as (a, -1).
To find the value of 'a', we have to substitute the solution in the equation because it is stated that (a, -1) is the solution of the given two equations.
So, the x coordinate value of the solution is a and the y coordinate value of the solution is (-1).
First, taking the equation;
Put the value of x = a and y = -1;
(-1) = -(a) + 9
a = 9 + 1 = 10
Now, taking the second equation;
Put the value of x = a and y = -1;
0.5a = 6 - 1
0.5a = 5
a = 10
Since we get the value of a = 10 from the equations, so the value of a is 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
equation format: y = mx + b where m is slope and b is the y intercept.
From the points given we find that it is a horizontal line, which means slope or m = 0. So we know so far:
y = 0x + b or y = b
The y-intercept occurs where x = 0. This occurs at y = -7. So the equation for these two points:
EQUATION: y = -7
