Solve the simultaneous equations -x + 4y = 12 x + y = - 7

Mathematics
1 answer:
blondinia [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

y = 1, x = - 8

or

(-8, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + 4y = 12

x + y = -7

add the equations together

0x + 5y = 5

5y = 5

y = 1

substitute y for 1 in one of the original equations to find x

x + y = -7

x + 1 = -7

x + 1 - 1 = - 7 - 1

x = - 7 - 1

x = -8

Pls help tap picture to see the three problems
valentinak56 [21]
1. Slope intercept form. First find two points to get slope: (0,-3) and (-3,-4). Slope is
(-4 - -3)/(-3 - 0)= 1/3
Use one of the points of (x,y) to solve for b
Y=1/3x + b
-3 = 1/3(0) + b
-3 = b so your slope intercept equation is
Y = 1/3x - 3

2. Rate of Change is slope. Your points are (0,10) and (24,6) so slope is (6-10)/(24-0)
= - 1/6 which means that for each 1 unit increase in x, y decreases by 1/6.

3. Standard form is ax + by =c
Notice it is the same line as in the first graph so it's the same equation
y = 1/3x - 3
First, you cannot have fractions, so you have to multiply the equation by 3 to get rid of the 1/3.
3y= x - 9. Now move the x over:
-x + 3y = - 9. Now get rid of the negative value on x by multiplying the entire equation by -1:
x - 3y = 9
