Graph A is the correct answer tell me if you need a step by step explanation
The solution of the equation is x= 3 and y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
-3x-4y = -17 and
-x-3y = -9
The system of equation can be rewritten as
3x+4y = 17 ------eq 1 and
x+3y = 9 ------ eq 2
To solve for x and y
Multiplying eq 2 by 3 we get,
3x + 9y = 27
or, 3x = 27-9y
Putting this value of x into eq 1 we get,
27-9y +4y = 17
or, -5y = 17-27
or, -5y = -10
or, y = 2
Now put y=2 in eq 2 we get,
x = 9 - 3(2)
= 3
Hence the solution is x = 3 and y = 2
The answer is 3x- I just took the text
If you are having trouble with ratios you can look at them as fractions. The first number being the numerator and the second number being the denominator or the other way around. When you are asked to find an equivalent ratio, you just have to find an equivalent fraction.
