Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To better see what the slope is (the coefficient of x), write it in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b. The slope-intercept form of $y -3 = 5(x-2)$ is $y=5x-7$ . The slope is the coefficient of x, which is 5.

Hope this helps! :)

Solve The Equation <br> 4x×9y=7<br> 4x-9y=9

hoa [83]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x=\dfrac{9}{8}-\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{8},\ y=-\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{18}}\\or\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{9}{8}+\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{2},\ y=-\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{18}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}4x\times9y=7&(1)\\4x-9y=9&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\(2)\\4x-9y=9\qquad\text{subtract}\ 4x\ \text{from both sides}\\-9y=-4x+9\qquad\text{change the signs}\\9y=4x-9\qquad\text{substitute it to (1)}\\\\4x(4x-9)=7\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\(4x)(4x)+(4x)(-9)=7\\(4x)^2-36x=7\\(4x)^2-2(4x)(4.5)=7\qquad\text{add}\ 4.5^2\ \text{to both sides}\\(4x)^2-2(4x)(4.5)+4.5^2=7+4.5^2\qquad\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2$

$(4x-4.5)^2=7+20.25\\(4x-4.5)=27.25\to 4x-4.5=\pm\sqrt{27.25}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{2725}{100}}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{2725}}{\sqrt{100}}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{25\cdot109}}{10}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{25}\cdot\sqrt{109}}{10}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\dfrac{5\sqrt{109}}{10}\qquad\text{add}\ \dfrac{45}{10}\ \text{to both sides}\\\\4x=\dfrac{45}{10}\pm\dfrac{5\sqrt{109}}{10}$

$4x=\dfrac{9}{2}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{2}\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\x=\dfrac{9}{8}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{8}\\\\\text{Put the values of}\ x\ \text{to (2):}\\\\9y=4\left(\dfrac{9}{8}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{8}\right)-9\\\\9y=\dfrac{9}{2}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{2}-\dfrac{18}{2}\\\\9y=-\dfrac{9}{2}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{2}\qquad\text{divide both sides by 9}\\\\y=-\dfrac{1}{2}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{18}$

Somebody please help me with this !!!

Damm [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Case 1 :

$3x + 2y = 6 \\ 4x + y = 2 \\ 3x = 6 - 2y \\ x = \frac{6 - 2y}{3} = \\ x = 2 - \frac{2y}{3} \\ 4(2 - \frac{2y}{3} ) + y = 2 \\ 8 - \frac{8y}{3} + y = 2 \\ - 1.67y = - 6 \\$

$y = 3.59 \\ x = 2 - \frac{2y}{3} \\x = 2 - \frac{2 \times 3.59}{3} \\ \\ x = - 0.39$

Case 2 :

$3x + 2y = 6 \\ 4x - y = 2 \\ x = 2 - \frac{2y}{3} \\ 4(2 - \frac{2y}{3} ) - y = 2 \\ 8 - \frac{8y}{3} - y = 2 \\ - 3.67y= - 6 \\ y = 1.63$

$x = 2 - \frac{2y}{3} \\ x = 2 - \frac{2 \times 1.63}{3} \\ x = 2 - 1.087 \\ x = 0.913$
