Respuesta :
y = -1 + 3/8x
2x - 5y = 6
Substitute the first equation into the second equation, since y is already by itself.
2x - 5(-1 + 3/8x) = 6
2x + 5 - 15/8x = 6
2x - 15/8x = 1
16/8x - 15/8x = 1
1/8x = 1 Multiply 8 on both sides to get x by itself
x = 8
Plug x into either of the equations.
y = -1 + 3/8(8)
y = -1 + 3
y = 2
2(8) - 5y = 6
16 - 5y = 6
-5y = -10
y = 2
(8,2)
The solution of the given system of equation is (8/31,-28/31) and this can be determined by using the substitution method.
Given :
- y = −1 + 3/8x
- 2x − 5y = 6
The following steps can be used in order to solve the given system of equations:
Step 1 - Write the given system of equations.
y = −1 + 3/8x --- (1)
2x − 5y = 6 --- (2)
Step 2 - Now, substitute the value of 'y' in equation (2).
[tex]\rm 2x -5(-1+\dfrac{3}{8}x) = 6[/tex]
Step 3 - Simplify the above equation.
[tex]2x + 5+\dfrac{15}{8}x = 6[/tex]
31x = 8
x = 8/31
Step 4 - Now, substitute the value of 'x' in equation (1).
[tex]\rm y = -1+\dfrac{3}{8}\times \dfrac{8}{31}[/tex]
y = -28/31
