Answer:

y=(x/2)+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept form. To get that, we need y by itself so we have to add 3x to both sides: 6y=30+3x. Now we divide by 6 and rearrange the right side: y=(3x+30)/6.

y = (3x/6)+(30/6) => y = (x/2)+5. We also know that the slope is 1/2 and the y-intercept is 5 because of the slope-intercept equation.

The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Solve for X. Assume X is a 2x2 matrix and I denotes the 2x2 identity matrix. Do not use decimal numbers in your answer. If there are fractions, leave them unevaluated.

$\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&8\\-6&-9\end{array}\right]$ · X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ =I.

First, we have to identify the matrix I. As it was said, the matrix is the identiy matrix, which means

I = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]$

So, $\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&8\\-6&-9\end{array}\right]$ · X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]$

Isolating the X, we have

X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&8\\-6&-9\end{array}\right]$ - $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]$

Resolving:

X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2-1&8-0\\-6-0&-9-1\end{array}\right]$

X· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&8\\-6&-10\end{array}\right]$

Now, we have a problem similar to A.X=B. To solve it and because we don't divide matrices, we do X=A⁻¹·B. In this case,

X= $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ ⁻¹· $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&8\\-6&-10\end{array}\right]$

Now, a matrix with index -1 is called Inverse Matrix and is calculated as: A . A⁻¹ = I.

So,

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9&-3\\7&-6\end{array}\right]$ · $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]$ = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right]$

9a - 3b = 1

7a - 6b = 0

9c - 3d = 0

7c - 6d = 1

Resolving these equations, we have a= $\frac{2}{11}$ ; b= $\frac{7}{33}$ ; c= $\frac{-1}{11}$ and d= $\frac{-3}{11}$ . Substituting:

X= $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{2}{11} &\frac{-1}{11} \\\frac{7}{33}&\frac{-3}{11} \end{array}\right]$ · $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&8\\-6&-10\end{array}\right]$
