Question 212393: Please help. 4x + 2y =6 and 2x + 4y = 1
my answer x = 1.8 y= 0.66---is this right?
are the lines perpendicular, parallel, or neither? Answer by Assignments(2) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 4x + 2y =6 --(1)
2*(2x + 4y = 1)
=> 4x + 8y = 2 -- (2)
(1) -(2)
=>2y-8y = 6-2
-6y = 4
=> y = -4/6 = - 0.667
=> & solve for x by putting value of x
=> x = 6-2(-0.667)
=> x = 6+1.334 = 7.334
