Solve the simultaneous equation 3x + y = 8 x - 3y = 11

Mathematics
1 answer:
podryga [215]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 7 / 2, y = - 5 / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + y = 8 ------> equation 1

3 ( 3x + y = 8 )

9x + 3y = 24 ------> equation 2

x - 3y = 11 ------> equation 3

Add equations 2 & 3,

9x + 3y = 24

x - 3y = 11

_________

10x + 0 = 35

10x = 35

x = 35 / 10

x = 3.5

Substitute x = 3.5 in equation 1,

3x + y = 8

3 ( 3.5 ) + y = 8

10.5 + y = 8

y = 8 - 10.5

y = - 2.5

x = 3.5

= 35 / 10

x = 7 / 2

y = - 2.5

= - 25 / 10

y = - 5 / 2

Write the equation of a circle with a center at (1,4) where a point on the circle is (4,8).
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

(x - 1)² + (y - 4)² = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

here (h, k) = (1, 4), so

(x - 1)² + (y - 4)² = r²

The radius is the distance from the centre to a point on the circle

Calculate r using the distance formula

r = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (1, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 8)

r = \sqrt{(4-1)^2+(8-4)^2}

  = \sqrt{3^2+4^2} = \sqrt{9+16} = \sqrt{25} = 5

Hence

(x - 1)² + (y - 4)² = 5², that is

(x - 1)² + (y - 4)² = 25 ← equation of circle

Find the slope of each line.<br><br> Y= -5/2x — 5
Dmitriy789 [7]
To find the slope of the line, simply remember the basic equation for the slope intercept.

Y = mx +/- b

Where m = slope or rise/run
b = y intercept.

In this case the slope is a negative value and is -5/2.
