Solve this system of equations by using the elimination method -2x-2y=-6, 3x+4y=8

Mathematics

adoni [48]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2x-2y=-6

3x+4y=8

multiply equation (1) by 3 and equation (2) by 2

- 6x-6y=18

6x+8y=16

Add

2y=34

y= 34÷2

y=17

substitute 17 for y in equation (2)

3x+4y=8

3x+4(17)=8

3x+68=8

3x=8-68

3x=-60

x=-60÷3

x=-20

x=-20,y=17

A line that perpendicular to the line y= 2/3x + 4 and goes through the point (-2,5)
gayaneshka [121]

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

we have

y=(2/3)x+4

the slope is m=2/3

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal

so

the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line is

m=-3/2

step 2

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

y=mx+b

we have

m=-3/2

point (-2,5)

substitute

5=(-3/2)(-2)+b

solve for b

5=3+b

b=2

therefore

<h2>y=-(3/2)x+2</h2>
