College Algebra I

Quetion: y= -3x , y + 3x=2
Answer: substitute y= -3x in for the y in y + 3x=2
y + 3x=2
-3x + 3x=2
0=2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Question: x + 4y=3 , 2x + 8y= -6
Answer: find what x equals
x + 4y=3
x + 4y + -4y=3 + -4y
x= -4y + 3
then substitute the answer that you got for x into the problem
2x + 8y= -6 and solve for y then the answer you got for y put it in
x= -4y + 3
and your answer should be ~ -3=-3 which means anything works it's an IDENTITY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
question : x + -y=20 , 2x + 3y=0
Answer : find y
x + -y=20
x + -x + -y=20 + -x
-y= -x + 20
If you do the same thing but find x instead of y you'll get
x=y + 20
so, you have -y= -x + 20 , x= y + 20
Substitute -y= -x + 20 in for the equation x= y + 20
should look like this when you substitute: x= -x + 20 + 20
and you end up with the answer: x=20
So, x= 20
take the equation -y= -x + 20 and substitute x in for the x in the equation
looks like this: -y= -20 + 20
then you end up with: -y=0
then, x=20 , y=0
If your graphing it your coordinates would be: (20,0)
