The point of elimination is to have one variable so example
3x + 2y = 4
7X + 3y = 5
1) Try to find a way to have one variable
7(3x + 2y = 4) ----> 21x + 14y = 28
-3(7x+ 3y = 5) -----> -21x -9y = -15
2) add
0 + 5y = 13
3) solve for the last variable
5y = 13
y = 13/5 = 2 3/5 = 2.8
4) Subsitute the variable to get the other one
3x + 2(2.8) = 4
3x + 5.6 = 4
3x = -1.6
x = 0.533333333 (continue)
The intersection would be 0.53 with a line above the 3 and 2.8. (0.5333 , 2.8)
Hope you understand!!
The property where you multiply ig
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Write x-4 instead of y.
x²+(x-4)²=40
x²+x²-8x+16=40
2x²-8x-24=0
x²-4x-12=0
(x-6)(x+2)=0
x=6 or x=-2
for x=6, y=6-4 = 2
for x=-2, y=-2-4 = -6
