Answer:

Q3. x = 3, y = -4

Q4. x = 2, y = -3

Q5. x = -1, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question is asking us to solve the system using elimination/adding, that's what I'll do.

To solve by adding, we add the like terms of both equations together.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1st question:

x + y = -1

x - y = 7

We add the first term together.

x + x = 2x

Then the second term.

y + -y = y - y = 0

Then the last term.

-1 + 7 = 6

Which becomes:

2x = 6

Then we solve the linear equation.

2x = 6

÷ 2  ÷ 2

x = 3

From the x value, we can then find y.

We can use either equation. In this example, I'll choose the first one.

x + y = -1

Substitute x = 3

3 + y = -1

-3         -3

y = -4

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

2nd question:

2x + 2y = -2

3x - 2y = 12

We add the first term together.

2x + 3x = 5x

Then the second term.

2y + - 2y = 2y - 2y = 0

Then the last term.

-2 + 12 = 10

Which becomes:

5x = 10

Then we solve the linear equation.

5x = 10

÷5   ÷5

x = 2

From the x value, we can then find y.

We can use either equation. In this example, I'll choose the first one.

2x + 2y = -2

Substitute x = 2

4 + 2y = -2

-4           -4

2y = -6

÷2   ÷2

y = -3

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

3rd question:

6x + 5y = 4

-6x + 7y = 20

We add the first term together.

6x + -6x = 6x - 6x = 0

Then the second term.

5y + 7y = 12y

Then the last term.

4 + 20 = 24

Which becomes:

12y = 24

Then we solve the linear equation.

12y = 24

÷12   ÷12

y = 2

From the x value, we can then find y.

We can use either equation. In this example, I'll choose the first one.

6x + 5y = 4

Substitute y = 2

6x + 10 = 4

-10          -10

6x = -6

÷6   ÷6

x = -1

Y= 4x-9 <br> and y=x-3 <br><br><br> Also using transitive property
Andreyy89
Y = 4x - 9 and y = x-3 so the two right sides (4x-9 and x-3) must be equal

4x-9 = x-3

Let's solve for x

4x-9 = x-3
4x-9+9 = x-3+9 ... add 9 to both sides
4x = x+6
4x-x = x+6-x ... subtract x from both sides
3x = 6
3x/3 = 6/3 ... divide both sides by 3
x = 2

If x = 2, then y is...
y = 4*x - 9 = 4*2-9 = 8-9 = -1
which can also be found by 
y = x-3 = 2-3 = -1

So overall x = 2 and y = -1

We have the ordered pair (x,y) = (2,-1)

Two boys decided to buy a computer. The second boy had 5/6 of the money the first had. The first boy had 7/8 of the price of the
UNO [17]

Answer:

The price of the computer is $1,152

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of the computer be $x

The first boy boy had 7/8 of this amount, the amount he has is thus 7/8 × $x = 7x/8

The second boy had 5/6 of what the first boy had. The amount of money he has is thus 5/6 × 7x/8 = 35x/48

Now, the addition of what they have is $696 more than what they need to pay. This amount is x+ 696

Mathematically, this can be represented as;

7x/8 + 35x/48 = x + 696

(42x + 35x)/48 = (x + 696)

77x/48 = (x + 696)

77x = 48(x + 696)

77x = 48x + 33408

77x - 48x = 33408

29x = 33, 408

x = 33,408/29

x = $1,152

Write an equation to describe the proportional relationship in this table. Explain your thinking and how you got your answer.
creativ13 [48]

Focus on the values in red outside the table (on the left and right sides). As the output increases by 4, the input increases by 1. This leads to the slope being rise/run = 4/1 = 4. The slope is the number just to the left of the x variable. So that's how they ended up with the equation y = 4x.

You can think of it as y = 4x+0, and note how it's in the form y = mx+b

m = 4 = slope

b = 0 = y intercept

The y intercept is the value of y when x = 0.

--------

Now because x = 0 and y = 0 pair up together, we can find the slope a different way: Pick any row other than the first row. Divide the y value over its paired x value. So let's say we pick on row two and we'd get a slope of y/x = 4/1 = 4.

Or we could pick on row three and get y/x = 8/2 = 4.

Picking on the fourth row gets us the slope to be y/x = 12/3 = 4. We end up with the same slope value each time. Again, this trick only works if (x,y) = (0,0) is on the line. Otherwise, you'll need to use the first method or use the slope formula.

For equations like this, we consider them a direct proportion. As x increases, so does y. As x increases by 1, y increases by 4. This is the same throughout the table.

----------

A real world example of this could be that x represents the number of sodas you buy, and if each soda is $4, then y = 4x represents the total cost of buying x number of sodas.

For instance, if you bought x = 10 sodas, then y = 4*x = 4*10 = 40 dollars is what you spend overall.
