Solve the following set of equation by both graphing method and also by addition.
\n" ); document.write( "Prepare a paragraph comparing and contrasting the two methods. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x+4y = -5
\n" ); document.write( "5x+6y = -7
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve by elimination:
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru 1st equation by 5
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru 2nd equation by 3
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "15x + 18y = -21
\n" ); document.write( "15x + 20y = -25
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract from 1st from 2nd and sol solve for \"y\":
\n" ); document.write( "y = -4
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute into 3x+4y=-6 to solve for \"x\":
\n" ); document.write( "3x +4(-4) = -6
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 10
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2
\n" ); document.write( "====================================================
\n" ); document.write( "3x+4y = -5
\n" ); document.write( "5x+6y = -7
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve by graphing:
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-3/4)x -(5/4)
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 0, then y = -5/4 giving you point (0,-5/4)
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 4, then y = -17/4 giving you point (4,-17/4)
\n" ); document.write( "Plot the points and draw a line thru them.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Solve by graphing:
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-5/6)x -(7/6)
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 0, then y = -7/6 giving you point (0,-17/6)
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = 6, then y = -37/6 giving you point (6,-36/6)
\n" ); document.write( "Plot the points and draw a line thru them.
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Graph and find the point is intersection; it should be (2,-4)
\n" ); document.write( "===========================
