4x=2/3(x - 2)
4x=2/3x - 4/3 
 4x - 2/3x=4/3
 4x - 2/3x=-4/3 
10/3x=-4/3
x=-4/3 * 3/10 

x=-12/30 
x=- 2/5 
hope this helps

2/3(x - 2) = 4x....distribute thru the parenthesis
2/3x - 4/3 = 4x...subtract 2/3x from both sides
-4/3 = 4x - 2/3x
-4/3 = 12/3x - 2/3x
-4/3 = 10/3x
-4/3 * 3/10 = x
-12/30 = x
- 2/5 = x <==

Which matrix equation represents the system of equations?<br><br> {-x+ 2y = 0 <br> y= -2
Snowcat [4.5K]

We are given a system of equations,

\begin{cases}-x+2y=0\\y=-2\\ \end{cases}

This will translate into a 2x2 matrix of coefficients (because 2 equations and 2 unknowns),

\begin{bmatrix}-1&2\\0&1\\ \end{bmatrix}

The matrix will then be applied to the vector (lower dimensions on top),

\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\\ \end{bmatrix}

And the result vector will be whats on the other side of equals sign,

\begin{bmatrix}0\\-2\\ \end{bmatrix}

So to put everything together,

\begin{bmatrix}-1&2\\0&1\\ \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\\ \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0\\-2\\ \end{bmatrix}

Hope this helps :)
