Algebra.Com's Answer #229841 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve the system of equations by graphing. Then classify the system. \n" ); document.write( "y=-x-13 \n" ); document.write( "4x-3y=-17 \n" ); document.write( "---------------- \n" ); document.write( "Substitute for \"y\" and solve for \"x\": \n" ); document.write( "4x - 3(-x-13) = -17 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "4x + 3x + 39 = -17 \n" ); document.write( "7x = -56 \n" ); document.write( "x = -8 \n" ); document.write( "------------------ \n" ); document.write( "Since y = -x-13, y = 8-13 = -5 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Solution: (-8,-5) \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "Since there is one point of intersection the system \n" ); document.write( "is independent or consistent (whichever term you \n" ); document.write( "wish to use). \n" ); document.write( "==================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( " |
