Answer:
{x,y} = {-2,-3}
Step-by-step explanation:
System of Linear Equations entered :
[1] -9x + 4y = 6
[2] 9x + 5y = -33
Graphic Representation of the Equations :
4y - 9x = 6 5y + 9x = -33
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] 5y = -9x - 33
[2] y = -9x/5 - 33/5
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]
[1] -9x + 4•(-9x/5-33/5) = 6
[1] -81x/5 = 162/5
[1] -81x = 162
// Solve equation [1] for the variable x
[1] 81x = - 162
[1] x = - 2
// By now we know this much :
x = -2
y = -9x/5-33/5
// Use the x value to solve for y
y = -(9/5)(-2)-33/5 = -3

Answer:
ok and thank you for point
15 boys and 16 girls....total is (15 + 16) = 31
probability that a boys name is drawn : boys/total ppl = 15/31
I'm assuming the function is f(x) = (2x+8)/(x^2+5x+6). If so, make sure to use parenthesis to indicate that you're dividing all of "2x+8" over all of "x^2+5x+6" as one big fraction. Otherwise, things are ambiguous and it leads to confusion.
Side Note: x^2 means "x squared"
Factor the numerator: 2x+8 = 2(x+4)
Factor the denominator: x^2+5x+6 = (x+2)(x+3)
There are no common factors between the numerator and denominator. So there is nothing to cancel out.
Recall that you cannot divide by zero. Something like 1/0 is undefined.
We need to find the x values that cause the denominator to be zero.
Set the denominator equal to zero and solve for x
x^2+5x+6 = 0
(x+2)(x+3) = 0
x+2 = 0 or x+3 = 0
x = -2 or x = -3
The x values x = -2 or x = -3 will lead to the denominator being zero. This means that the vertical asymptotes are x = -2 or x = -3 as shown by the blue dashed vertical lines in the attached image.
