Question

How can 1/3x - 2 = 1/4x + 11 be set up as a system of equations? (5 points)

3y - x = -6
4y - x = 44
3y + x = -6
4y + x = 44
3y - 3x = -6
4y - 4x = 44
3y + 3x = -6
4y + 4x = 44

Answer 1

What I notice immediately is that your given equations have fractional coefficients. The key task here is to eliminate those fractional coeff. Do you know how to do that? If so, please type in the steps necessary to elim. fractional coeff. from the first given equation.
