How do you solve y= 3x - 9 + 8x
Sveta_85 [38]
<span>Simplifying y = 3x + -9 + 8x Reorder the terms: y = -9 + 3x + 8x Combine like terms: 3x + 8x = 11x y = -9 + 11x Solving y = -9 + 11x Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying y = -9 + 11x</span>

The sum of two numbers is 9. And the sum of their reciprocals is 1/2.find the numbers
Musya8 [376]
Set up a system of equations:

x + y = 9
1/x +1/y = 1/2

The easiest way to solve would be substitution.
x + y = 9 can be solved for y:

y = 9 - x

Then plug this into the second equation and solve for x:

1/x + 1/(9-x) = 1/2
(9-x) + x = x(9-x)/2
9 = (9x-x²)2
18 = 9x - x²
x² - 9x + 18 = 0
(x-6)(x-3) = 0
x = 6, 3

You can check your answer by plugging the two numbers back into both of the equations:

6 + 3 = 9
1/6 + 1/3 = 1/2

The two numbers are 6 and 3.
