Algebra.Com's Answer #451817 by rothauserc(4718)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! We are given the following:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Tell whether the ordered pair is a solution of the linear system. \n" ); document.write( "(4,2); \n" ); document.write( "y=-5x+22 \n" ); document.write( "y= 8x -30 \r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The ordered pair (4,2) corresponds to x=4, y=2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "substitute x=4 in the first equation and we get\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=-5*4+22 and y=-20+22=2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "substitute x=4 in the second equation and we get\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=8*4-30=32-30=2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "therefore the ordered pair (4,2) is a solution for the two equations, a linear system\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
