Question

Solve the following system of equations using all three methods. Must show your work. 4x + y = 2 3x - 3y = 9

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you do part a

Equation 1: 4x+y=2

Equation 2: 3x-3y=9

b

Divide equation 2 by 3

x-y=3

add y to both sides

x=3+y

Sbustitute this into equation 1

4(3+y)=2

12+4y+y=2

5y= -10

y= -2

Plug this into equation 1

4x-2=2

x=1

Part c.

Equation 1: 4x+y=2

Equation 2: 3x-3y=9

divide equation 2 by 3

x-y=3

add the two equations

(x-y)+(4x+y)=2+3

5x=5

x=1

Plug this into equation 1

4(1)+y=2

4+y=2

y= -2

For part a just create a table and graph it
