Solve the following using Substitution method
2x – 5y = -13
3x + 4y = 15


- To solve a pair of equations using substitution, first solve one of the equations for one of the variables. Then substitute the result for that variable in the other equation.

- Choose one of the equations and solve it for x by isolating x on the left-hand side of the equal sign. I'm choosing the 1st equation for now.

- Add 5y to both sides of the equation.


- Multiply
times 5y - 13.

- Substitute
for x in the other equation, 3x + 4y = 15.

- Multiply 3 times
.

- Add
to 4y.

- Add
to both sides of the equation.

- Divide both sides of the equation by 23/2, which is the same as multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the fraction.

- Substitute 3 for y in
. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for x directly.


- Add
to
by finding a common denominator and adding the numerators. Then reduce the fraction to its lowest terms if possible.

- The system is now solved. The value of x & y will be 1 & 3 respectively.

Answer:
Midpoint of (-1,-5) and (-5,7) is (-3,1)
Midpoint of (5,-2) and (-4,2) is (0.5,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the midpoint formula
Answer:
The slope is -7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ 7x + 4y = 10
∵ y = mx + c ⇒ where m is the slope of the line
∴ Re-arrange the equation
∴ 4y = 10 - 7x ⇒ ÷4
∴ y = 10/4 - (7/4) x
∴ y = 5/2 - (7/4) x
∴ The slope is -7/4
Answer:
x = - 9/8
Explanation:
Answer:
the x intercept is (0,100) and the y intercept is (0,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x)=1/20x(x-100)
g(0)=1/20(0)(0-100)
g(0)=1/20*0(0-100)
g(0)=100
