Mathematics

valina [46]3 years ago

Answer:

x=\frac{b-ac}{a+2} ; a\neq -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides: by <em>x+c</em>

a(x+c)=\frac{b-2x}{x+c} (x+c)

Simplify: a(x+c)=b-2x

Expand: ax+ac=b-2x

Subtract <em>ac</em> from both sides: ax+ac-ac=b-2x-ac

Simplify: ax=b-2x-ac

Add<em> 2x</em> to both sides: ax+2x=b-2x-ac+2x

Simplify: ax+2x=b-ac

Factor <em>ax+2x</em>: x(a+2)

x(a+2)=b-ac

Divide both sides by <em>a+2: </em>\frac{x(a+2)}{a+2} = \frac{b}{a+2} - \frac{ac}{a+2} ; a≠-2

Simplify: x=\frac{b-ac}{a+2} ; a\neq -2

What is the solution to the system of equations?<br><br> y = –5x + 3<br><br> y = 1
Alinara [238K]
Ok so we know that y=1 so we can simply sub in the value of y into the equation :

y = -5x +3

1 = -5x +3

Move the -5x to the LHS ( Left-hand-side ) therefore it changes sign as well move 1 to the RHS ( Right-hand-side ) it also changes sign.

5x = 3 - 1

5x = 2

x = 2/5

x = 0.4

Hope this helps :).

How do you Graph y=-3/5x+6
dangina [55]
Let's pick two points on the line, the y-intercept, and the x-intercept. These are the points at which x=0, and y=0.

When x=0:
y=-3/5x+6&#10;\\y=-3/5(0)+6&#10;\\y=6

So one point is (0,6)

When y=0:
y=-3/5x+6&#10;\\0=-3/5x+6&#10;\\-6=-3/5x&#10;\\-30=-3x&#10;\\x=10

So another point is (10,0)

So mark the points (0,6) and (10,0) on a pair of axes, and draw a straight line between them, and past them to infinity. This is a graphing of the line y=-3/5 x + 6
