The given system of simultaneous equations is expressed as
3x - 5y = - 2 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
2x + y = 3 - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
The first step is to decide on which variable to eliminate. Let us eliminate x. Then we would multiply both rows by numbers which would make the coefficients of x to be equal in both rows.
Multiplying equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes
6x - 10y = - 4
6x + 3y = 9
Subtracting, it becomes
- 13y = - 13
y = - 13/- 13 = 1
The next step is to substitute y = 1 into any of the equations to determine x.
Answer: Let's start by writing down coordinates of all points:
A(0,0,0)
B(0,5,0)
C(3,5,0)
D(3,0,0)
E(3,0,4)
F(0,0,4)
G(0,5,4)
H(3,5,4)
a.) When we reflect over xz plane x and z coordinates stay same, y coordinate changes to same numerical value but opposite sign. Moving front-back is moving over x-axis, moving left-right is moving over y-axis, moving up-down is moving over z-axis.
