Question

How can1/3 x − 2 = 1/4 x + 11 be set up as a system of equations?

Answer 1

help i medal and fan

Answer 2

use a second variable, y

y = 1/3x - 2
y = 1/4x + 11

Answer 3

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 4

those are the answers

Answer 6

well, we can start off with

y = 1/3x - 2
y = 1/4x + 11

we can multiply the first equation by 3, and the second equation by 4, giving us

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

we can then subtract x from both sides, giving us

3y − x = −6
4y − x = 44
