Question

Solve the system of linear equations.

2x - 8y = 0

3x - 8y = 12

Answer 1

2x - 8y = 0
2x = 8y
x = 4y

substitute to 3x - 8y = 12

3x - 8y = 12
3(4y) - 8y = 12
12y - 8y = 12
4y = 12
y = 12/4
y =3

Answer 2

get it @kk54 ?

Answer 3

So if its asking for the ordered pair example, 3,2
what would it be

Answer 4

you mean x = 3 and y = 2 ??

Answer 5

I'm not sure. My answer box just says enter an ordered pair like (3,2)

Answer 6

hold on

we got y = 3, just substitute it to 2x - 8y = 0 to get x

2x - 8y = 0
2x - 8(3) = 0
2x - 24 = 0
2x = 24
x = 24/12
x = 2

Answer 7

x = 2, and y = 3
or
(2,3)

Answer 8

get it @kk54 ??

Answer 9

thank you
