Answer:
To answer this question, there needs to be choices provided since the description you provided states "which of the following".
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<em><u>x=-6, y=-2</u></em>, (As a point) (-6, -2).....The point form is not necessary unless you want to solve the system (of equations) by graphing.
Step-by-step explanation:
By substitution:
x-y=-4 By adding y on both sides,
x=y-4
Now you can substitute x for the expression (y-4)
Plug the (y-4) as x in the other equation.
So -2x+3y=6 becomes
-2(y-4)+3y=6
Now solve:
-2(y-4)+3y=6 distributes out to be
-2y+8+3y=6 Now combining like terms
y+8=6 Subtract 8 on both sides to isolate the variable
<u><em>y=-2</em></u>
Now plug the value -2 in where the y is in any equation (preferably the easier/less complicated one) and solve for x.
So x-y=-4 becomes
x-(-2)=-4
=x+2=-4
=<u><em>x=-6</em></u>
Answer:
8x + 16y = 39 and
40x + 8y = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the blue tiles is b inches and that of the white tiles is w inches.
So, given that a row of 8 blue tiles and 16 white tiles has a length of 39 inches and a row of 40 blue tiles and 8 white tiles has a length of 42 inches.
Therefore, we can write the system of linear equations that represents the relationship between the length if a blue tile and a white tile in inches as
8x + 16y = 39 and
40x + 8y = 42 (Answer)
