Answer:
x + y = 4 Equation 1
y = 2x -1 Equation 2
-2x + y = -1
x + y = 4
Subtract
You will get
- 3x = -5
Divide by -3
-3x / -3 = - 5 /-3
x = 5/3
Substitute x into equation 1
x + y = 4
x = 5/3
5/3 + y = 4
y = 4 - 5/3
y = 7/3
x = 5/3 y = 7/3
Hope this helps.
1)
I:y=3x-4
II:9x-3y=14
substitute y into II:
9x-3*(3x-4)=14
9x-9x+12=14
12=14
this is obviously not equal so there is no solution, the lines are parallel
2)
I:y=4x+6
II:5x-y=6
substitute y into II:
5x-(4x+6)=6
5x-4x-6=6
x=12
substiute x into II:
5*12-y=6
-y=6-60
-y=-54
y=54
the solution is (12,54)
First you need to distribute the -8
So you would get -8x-8 now distribute the 3 so it would be 3x-6
-8x-8+3x-6=-3+2 is how it should look
Now combine the -8x and 3x cause their like terms and also -8 and -6
-5x-14=-3x+2 now add -3 to both sides
-2x-14=2 and add 14 to both sides
-2x=12 all left to do is divide both by -2
X=-6
