- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
4x + 5y = -12
-2x + 3y = -16
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
-2x + 3y = -16
- Multiply everything by 2: -4x + 6y = -32
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
4x + 5y = -12
-4x + 6y = -32
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine 2 equations: 11y = -44
- Divide 17 on both sides: y = -4
Slope:7
y-int:-2
slope is the one with x and y-int is b
Answer:
No, I do not agree with the conjecture because 1 is not a prime number.
Step-by-step explanation:
A prime number is one that can be divided by 1 and itself only. Thus it can be expressed in 2 factors only, 1 and the number itself.
Examples are; 2, 3, 5, 13, 19 , 23 etc.
So, 2 = 1 x 2
3 = 1 x 3
23 = 1 x 23
Prime numbers must be expressed as the product of 1 and the number.
The conjecture that every prime number can be expressed as the product of two prime numbers is false. Because 1 is not a prime number, since it has no 2 factors.
After graphing the lines, you can see that the solution is (4, -1)
