Answer:

-1/3, 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x for x: -4y=3  x=3+4y

Substitute: x=3+4y

(2(3+4y)+y=3)

Isolate y for: 2(3+4y)+y=3    y=-1/3

Substitute: y=-1/3

3+4(-1/3)

3+4(-1/3)=5/3

x=5/3

-1/3,5/3

Answer:

<h2>(-1, -1)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitution\ method:\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x-4y=3&\text{add 4y to both sides}\\2x+y=-3\end{array}\right\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x=4y+3\\2x+y=-3\end{array}\right\\\\\text{Substitute from the first equation to the second equation:}\\\\2(4y+3)+y=-3\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\(2)(4y)+(2)(3)+y=-3\\\\8y+6+y=-3\qquad\text{subtract 6 from both sides}\\\\9y=-9\qquad\text{divide both sides by 9}\\\\\boxed{y=-1}\\\\\text{Put the value of y to the first equation:}\\\\x=4(-1)+3\\\\x=-4+3\\\\\boxed{x=-1}\\\\\boxed{\boxed{x=-1,\ y=-1\to(-1,\ -1)}}


Elimination\ method:\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x-4y=3\\2x+y=-3&\text{multiply both sides by 4}\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x-4y=3\\8x+4y=-12\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad\qquad9x=-9\qquad\text{divide both sides by 9}\\.\qquad\qquad\boxed{x=-1}\\\\\text{Put the value of x to the first equation:}\\\\-1-4y=3\qquad\text{add 1 to both sides}\\\\-4y=4\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-4)}\\\\\boxed{y=-1}\\\\\boxed{\boxed{x=-1,\ y=-1\to(-1,\ -1)}}

Three times one number added to five times another number is 54. The second number is two less than the first. Use a system of e
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

8 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use x for the first number, and y for the second, you get equations of 3x+5y=54 and x-2=y.

You can substitute the second equation into the first one to solve it. This gives 3x+5(x-2)=54.

The brackets can be expanded to 3x+5x-10=54. Collecting like terms makes it 8x-10=54.

Next, we add 10 to both sides. This gives 8x=64.

From there, we isolate the x by dividing both sides by 8, giving x=8.

To work out the second number, we can sub 8 for x in either equation (I'm using the second one as it's simpler).

This comes to y=8-2, therefore y=6.

**This content is simultaneous equations, which you may wish to revise. I'm always happy to help!

1. If quadrilateral ABCD is rotated 270° clockwise about the origin, find the coordinates of B'.
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The coordinates of B' are (-3, 5).  

Step-by-step explanation:

For every 90 degrees rotated, the coordinate numbers switch and one is multiplied by -1, when clockwise it's the 2nd one, and when counterclockwise, it's the 1st.

Which row of the input/output table is incorrect?
zaharov [31]

Row A:   x = 3

y = 2x - 3

y = 2(3) - 3 = 3      This is correct

Row B: x = 5

y = 2x - 3

y = 2(5) - 3 = 7        This is correct

Row C: x = 7

y = 2x - 3

y = 2(7) - 3 = 11      this is correct

Row D: x = 10

y = 2x - 3

y = 2(10) - 3 = 17  THIS IS INCORRECT, SO ROW D
