Algebra.Com's Answer #483433 by rothauserc(4718)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 4x=3(4-y) \n" ); document.write( "2y=4(3-x) \n" ); document.write( "first step is to put each equation in standard form y = mx +b \n" ); document.write( "1)4x=3(4-y) \n" ); document.write( "4x = 12 -3y \n" ); document.write( "-3y = 4x - 12 \n" ); document.write( "y = -4x/3 +4 \n" ); document.write( "2)2y=4(3-x) \n" ); document.write( "2y = 12 -4x \n" ); document.write( "y = -2x +6 \n" ); document.write( "now we can graph the following two equations \n" ); document.write( "y = -4x/3 +4 \n" ); document.write( "y = -2x +6 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "now you can see that the intersection point is (3, 0) \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
