Algebra.Com's Answer #96073 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! y=x and 4x+5y=9 \n" ); document.write( "---------------- \n" ); document.write( "You are looking for a pair of numbers that make both equations true. \n" ); document.write( "---------------- \n" ); document.write( "Since y = x, substitute x in place of y in the 2nd equation: \n" ); document.write( "4x + 5x = 9 \n" ); document.write( "9x = 9 \n" ); document.write( "x = 1 \n" ); document.write( "------------ \n" ); document.write( "But y = x, so y = 1 also. \n" ); document.write( "--------------------------- \n" ); document.write( "The solution for the system is (1,1) \n" ); document.write( "----------------- \n" ); document.write( "If you graph the two equation they will intersect at (1,1). \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "================= \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
