I got (3,6) is that right? Solve the system: y = 4x + 6 and 2x = y
nope. check the signs when you add subtract
Shoot. So its -3,-6
thats right !! you can confirm this urself, by plugging in the values in the system of equations given
Oh thanks!! I also got stuck on another one can i share it with you?
sure.. .
Solve the system: 3x – y = 28 and y = 14 – 2x a. (-2.8, 8.4) b. (2.8, -8.4) c. (-8.4, 2.8) d. (8.4, -2.8)
hmm where you got stuck ?
I plugged in the y equation in and i ended getting 32? i don't think thats even close.
3x – y = 28 -----------(1) y = 14 – 2x ------------(2) substitute y value from (2) in (1) => 3x - (14-2x) = 28 3x - 14 + 2x = 28 5x = 14 x = 14/5 = 2.8
So would that make y -8.4?
ok i made a mistake. let me redo...
Oh oh sure
3x – y = 28 -----------(1) y = 14 – 2x ------------(2) substitute y value from (2) in (1) => 3x - (14-2x) = 28 3x - 14 + 2x = 28 5x = 42 x = 42/5 = 8.4
So that would make y 2.8?
now plugin x = 8.4 in (2) and solve for y y = 14 - 2*8.4 = -2.8
-2.8**
Thanks so much!!
yep!
np... yw :)
