Write the augmented matrix, and use row reduction to solve.

i dont really know how to do this but i know some people who might, :D

OpenStudy (campayne):

send them over

OpenStudy (moldybubblegum11):

can you help @.Sam. @AloneS @Awolflover1 @EclipsedStar @Elsa213 @Hayhayz @jim_thompson5910 @YanaSidlinskiy @kayla011102 @Nnesha @pooja195 @Will.H @zepdrix ?

OpenStudy (moldybubblegum11):

does this count as mass tagging?

OpenStudy (moldybubblegum11):

i think the limit is 10. ;-;

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Matrices? Umm ummm ummmmm :d trying to rememberrrrrr

zepdrix (zepdrix):

\[\large\rm y=4+x\]\[\large\rm 4y-3=4x\]We first need our equations in `standard form`. This means getting our x and y on the same side of the equation, and the other stuff on the right.

OpenStudy (moldybubblegum11):

i hope you know how to do this... i want to learn how to do it.

zepdrix (zepdrix):

So in that first equation, how bout we subtract x from each side,\[\large\rm -x+y=4\]\[\large\rm 4y-3=4x\]Understand that first step?

OpenStudy (campayne):

yeah so far

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Our first equation is in standard form, yay! x and y on the same side, the other number on the right. Any ideas how to continue? What should we do with the other equation?

OpenStudy (campayne):

so i know that the first equation is now -1, 1 and 4 right?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

When we set up our matrix? Yes, good. Let's make sure we have our second equation in the correct format before we set up the matrix though :)

OpenStudy (campayne):

kay so how does you do that with the next one?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Again we have x stuff on the right side, no good. So let's subtract 4x from each side,\[\large\rm -4x+4y-3=0\]Oh but we also need to move the other "junk" to the right side. So we'll add 3 to each side,\[\large\rm -4x+4y=3\]

OpenStudy (campayne):

is that on the beginning number and ending one ( -4 and 3)?

zepdrix (zepdrix):

Hmm I don't understand what you're asking :d

OpenStudy (campayne):

well where are you adding three?
