Calculate out how many times the denominator goes into the numerator. To do that, divide 234 by 8 and keep only what is to the left of the decimal point:
You can set both equations together
y = -3x + 1
and y = x - 3
we can replace the y of one equation with the other side
-3x+1 = x-3
add 3x on both sides
1 = x + 3x -3
add 3 on both sides
1 + 3 = x+ 3x
simplify
4 = 4x
divide by 4 on both sides
x = 1
y = x - 3
y = 1 - 3
y = 2
So the solution is: (1,2)
So it is distance from zero so 6+15=21
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 (11) 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21
eliminate one from each side till you find the middle
5 x 3/4 = 15/4
15/4 = 3 3/4
