We want to find the coeficient of the y terms when added together so find all the y terms
+12y and +2y
we add them together
12y+2y=(12+2)y=(14)y=14y
coeficient is 14
the constant is the number that is set already or the number that doesn't have it multiplied by a placeholder exg. 4 is a constnat but 4x is not so find the constants
+5 and +8
we add
5+8=13
the constant is 13
y coeficient=14
constant=14
we have
<u>The system of equations</u>
-------> equation
-------> equation
Substitute equation in equation
subtract both sides
Divide by both sides
the solution is the point
therefore
the answer is
the solution to the system of equations is the point
Answer:
slope or m= -5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We are to find the equation a line that passes through the point (8, 1) and which is perpendicular to a line whose equation is.
We know that the slope of line which is perpendicular to another line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line so it will be .
Then, we will find the y-intercept of the line using the standard equation of a line:
Therefore, the equation of the line will be .
