Answer:

3x−4y=9 −3x+2y=9

Add these equations to eliminate x: −2y=18

Then solve−2y=18

for y: −2y=18 −2y −2 = 18 −2 (Divide both sides by -2)

y=−9

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation: 3x−4y=9

Substitute−9for y in 3x−4y=9: 3x−(4)(−9)=9

3x+36=9(Simplify both sides of the equation)

3x+36+−36=9+−36(Add -36 to both sides)

3x=−27 3x 3 = −27 3 (Divide both sides by 3) x=−9

Answer: x=−9 and y=−9

Hope This Helps!!!

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x+6y=-183x+6y=−18. Fully reduce your answer.
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of line is

3x+6y=-18

We need to find the slope of a line which is perpendicular to the given line.

The given equation can be rewritten as

3x+6y+18=0      ...(i)

If a line is defined as ax+bx+c=0, then the slope of the line is  

m=-\dfrac{a}{b}

In equation (i), a=3, b=6 and c=18. So, slope of the line is

m_1=-\dfrac{3}{6}=-\dfrac{1}{2}

Let m_2 be the slope of perpendicular line.

We know that product of two perpendicular line is -1.

m_1\cdot m_2=-1

(-\dfrac{1}{2})\cdot m_2=-1

Multiply both sides by -2.

m_2=2

Therefore, the slope of perpendicular line is 2.

What does x equal? 3(x-7)=138+3x
Arturiano [62]
3(x-7) = 138 + 3x      First multiply
3x-21 = 138 + 3x      subtract 3x from both sides 
-21 = 138            

This is a false statement because -21 does not equal to 138 so the answer is no solution.

Hope this helps! Please give me the brainliest answer if you like it! If you have further questions, please leave a comment or add me as a friend!

M and n are both integers. Select all the statements that are true if m and n are also equal to each other. m - n = n - m OR +m
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The true statements are;

(i) m - n = n - m

(ii) +m (-n) = m - n

(iii) 0 = m - n

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that m and n are both integers and we have to select all the statements that are true if m and n are also equal to each other.

(i) The given situation is: m - n = n - m

LHS = m - n

       = m - m   {because m and n are equal}

       = 0

RHS = n - m

       = n - n   {because m and n are equal}

       = 0

Hence, the given statement is true because LHS = RHS = 0.

(ii) The given situation is: +m (- n) = m - n

LHS = +m (- n)

       = m - n

       = m - m  {because m and n are equal}

       = 0

RHS = m - n

       = n - n   {because m and n are equal}

       = 0

Hence, the given statement is true because LHS = RHS = 0.

(iii) The given situation is: 0 = m - n

LHS = 0

RHS = m - n

       = m - m   {because m and n are equal}

       = 0

Hence, the given statement is true because LHS = RHS = 0.

(iv) The given situation is: m + n = 0

RHS = 0

LHS = m + n

       = m + m   {because m and n are equal}

       = 2m

Hence, the given statement is not true because LHS \neq RHS.
