Answer:

(0,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

x-4y=28 multiply by 4

-4x-y=7 multiply by 1

4x-16y=112

-4x-y=7

cross out the x and add the rest

-17y= 119

divide by -17

y= -7

now you substitute the y in one of the equations.

the reformed equations

we will use the second one

-4x-(-7)=7

two negative becomes a plus

-4x+7=7

now you minus the 7 to both sides

-4x=0

now divide by -4

x=0

(0,-7)

x - 4y = 28

-4x - y = 7

____________

x - 4y = 28

-16x - 4y = 28

____________ _

17x = 0

x = 0

0 - 4y = 28

y = -7

I need to divide this equation:

Luba_88 [7]

1+7/11 = 11/11+7/11 = 18/11 2+1/2 = 4/2+1/2 = 5/2 (18/11)/(5/2) = (18/11)*(2/5) = 36/55

Simplify f+g / f-g when f(x)= x-4 / x+9 and g(x)= x-9 / x+4

steposvetlana [31]

$f(x)=\dfrac{x-4}{x+9};\ g(x)=\dfrac{x-9}{x+4}\\\\f(x)+g(x)=\dfrac{x-4}{x+9}+\dfrac{x-9}{x+4}=\dfrac{(x-4)(x+4)+(x-9)(x+9)}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\=\dfrac{x^2-4^2+x^2-9^2}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{2x^2-16-81}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\f(x)-g(x)=\dfrac{x-4}{x+9}-\dfrac{x-9}{x+4}=\dfrac{(x-4)(x+4)-(x-9)(x+9)}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\=\dfrac{x^2-4^2-(x^2-9^2)}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{x^2-16-x^2+81}{(x+9)(x+4)}=\dfrac{65}{(x+9)(x+4)}$

$\dfrac{f+g}{f-g}=(f+g):(f-g)=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{(x+9)(x+4)}:\dfrac{65}{(x+9)(x+4)}\\\\=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{(x+9)(x+4)}\cdot\dfrac{(x+9)(x+4)}{65}\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{\dfrac{f+g}{f-g}=\dfrac{2x^2-97}{65}}$
