Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract second equation from first equation to eliminate x
2x+6y-2x+10y=17-9
16y=8
y=1/2, use either original equation to solve for x
2x+6y=17 becomes
2x+6(1/2)=17
2x+3=17
2x=14
x=7 so the solution is the point (7, 1/2)
We can multiply the first by -2 and add it to second equation to eliminate x.
-2(3x-4y)+6x+3y=-2(-10)-42
-6x+8y+6x+3y=20-42
11y=-22
y=-2 using 3x-4y=-10 becomes
3x-4(-2)=-10
3x+8=-10
3x=-18
x=-6 so the solution is the point (-6,-2)
So you should be able to see how to solve the other two.
