What is the solution of the system of linear equations? y = 3x - 2 y - 2 = x

Answer:

x = 2 y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x - 2

x = y - 2

Plug in the equation of x into the first equation and solve for y.

y = 3x - 2

y = 3(y - 2) - 2 Multiply out

y = 3y - 6 - 2

y = 3y - 8     Add 8 to each side

y + 8 = 3y - 8 + 8      8 cancels on the right

y + 8 = 3y          Subtract y from each side

y - y + 8 = 3y - y       The y on the left cancels

8 = 2y      Divide each side by 2

8/2 = 2y/2   2 on the right cancels because 2/2 = 1

8/2 = y

4 = y  

Now plug your answer into the 2nd equation given to solve for x.

x = y - 2

x = 4 - 2

x = 2

We could find the slope with this formula
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
with (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) are the points that is located on the line.


NUMBER 20
Given:
(x₁,y₁) = (-2,3)
(x₂,y₂) = (7,-4)

Solution:
Input the points to the formula
m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
m = (-4 - 3) / (7 - (-2))
m = -7 / (7+2)
m = -7/9

The slope of the line is -7/9


NUMBER 21
Given:
(x₁,y₁) = (-6,-1)
(x₂,y₂) = (4,1)

Solution:
Input the points to the formula
m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
m = (1-(-1)) / (4 -(-6))
m = (1+1) / (4+6)
m = 2/10
m = 1/5

The slope of the line is 1/5


NUMBER 22
Given:
(x₁,y₁) = (-9,3)
(x₂,y₂) = (2,1)

Solution:
Input the points to the formula
m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
m = (1 - 3) / (2 - (-9))
m = -2 / (2 + 9)
m = -2/11

The slope of the line is -2/11

on Saturday Leo and his brother drove into town to visit their mom Leo is trying to remember how much he spent on gas and tolls
Gwar [14]

Let t be the number of tolls they crossed.

Amount they spent at each toll = $1.75.

Amount they spent at gas station = $28.

Let C be the total amount they spent on gas and tolls.

If they crossed 1 toll, then

C = 28 + 1.75(1).

If they crossed 3 tolls, then,

C = 28 + 1.75(3)

If they crossed t tolls, then,

C = 28 + 1.75t

Here, the terms are 28 and 1.75t and the factors are 1.75 and t.
