1. y-2x=0
y=8x-9
Then (8x-9) - 2x = 0, then 8x - 9 - 2x = 0, then 6x - 9 = 0, then x = 3/2
So y = 8x - 9 = 3
The solution is x = 3/2 and y = 3, or (3/2, 3)
The graph is attached.
2. r-6s=0 (1)
9r-8s=230 (2)
From (1), we get r = 6s, then we put in (2) and have
9(6s) - 8s = 230, then 54s - 8s = 230, then 46s = 230, then s = 5
so r = 6s = 30
The solution is r = 30, s = 5.
3. x+y= -13 (1)
9x+y= -61 (2)
(2)-(1), then get 8x = -61+13 = -48, then x = -6. Since x + y = -13, then y = -x - 13 = -7.
The solution is x = -6, y = -7, or (-6, -7)
4. (1,2); 6x-5y= -4
2x-7y= -12
is the given ordered pair a solution of the system?
YES
5. 5x+8y= 27 (1)
8x-8y= -144 (2)
(1)+(2) and get 13x = -144 + 27 ...
