3x + 2y = 2 -2x + y = 8 Solve the system of equations. A) (-2,4) B) (4,-2) C) (-4,-2) D) (5 4 , -1 2 )
d(5/4 -1/2
Does D. contain fractions?
yes
This question falls into the same category that we did before. Let's start with A (-2,4) Can you try plugging in -2 for x and 4 for y?
ok 3(-2) +2 (4)=2
Now try solving. What is 3*-2 and 2*4?
3*-2= -6
2*4 = 8
Good. Now, does \[-6 + 8 = 2?\]
yes
Very nice. Try plugging in -2 for x and 4 for y, in the next part: \[-2x + y = 8\] and solve
-2(-2) +4=8
ok -2*-2=4 4+4 = 8
so its right can you check like one or two more with me
this is easy
yeah i just want to be correct :T
you have solve for (y) by getting it by itself and then you do the same for the other equation and you get an equation is this based on functions
