Answers:
So the solution is (x,y) = (4, -1)
=============================================================
Work Shown:
6x + 7y = 17
6x + 7( y ) = 17
6x + 7( -3x+11 ) = 17 ... replace every copy of y with -3x+11
6x - 21x + 77 = 17
-15x = 17-77
-15x = -60
x = -60/(-15)
x = 4
We'll use this x value to find y
y = -3x+11
y = -3(4)+11 ... replace x with 4
y = -12+11
y = -1
We have x = 4 and y = -1 pair up together to give us the solution (x,y) = (4, -1)
------------------------
To check the solution, we plug x = 4 and y = -1 into each equation
Plugging the values into the first equation leads to...
y = -3x+11
-1 = -3(4)+11
-1 = -1
This is effectively already done in the last part of the previous section. But it doesn't hurt to verify like this regardless.
We'll need to verify the second equation as well.
6x + 7y = 17
6(4) + 7(-1) = 17
24 - 7 = 17
17 = 17
We get a true equation, so the solution is confirmed with both equations. Overall, the solution to the system of equations is confirmed. This system is independent and consistent.
Answer:
3<5
Step-by-step explanation: dont see a picture but i have an example
It looks like your instructor wants you to write in point-slope form.
the equation for point slope form is quite simple
y-y1=m(x-x1)
your variables:
y and x: just state these as they are
m: slope
y1 and x1: the numbers in the point given
keep in mind a double negative equals a positive, so when you come across a negative coordinate you would put + instead of - in your equation.
your final answer would be
y+2=-2(x-4)
I hope this helped :)
please don't hesitate to ask if you have any more questions
Step-by-step explanation:
You're asking why
let's transpose the first equation for y
-2x-6y=18
-6y=18+2x
6y=-18-2x
y=-18/6-2x/6
y=-3-⅓x as required
