Solve the following system of equations. y + 5x = 30 2y = 5x + 15

Solve   2y-5x-30  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  2y-5x-30  = 0 and calculate its properties

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 3, y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y + 5x = 30 → (1)

2y = 5x + 15 → (2)

Subtract 5x from both sides in (1)

y = 30 - 5x → (3)

Substitute y = 30 - 5x into (2)

2(30 - 5x) = 5x + 15 ← distribute left side

60 - 10x = 5x + 15 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

60 - 15x = 15 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

- 15x = - 45 ( divide both sides by - 15 )

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into (3) for corresponding value of y

y = 30 - 5(3) = 30 - 15 = 15

Thus solution is x = 3, y = 15

(0,-3) see attached graph

step-by-step explanation:

a. to solve the system, graph the two equations.

x = y+3 becomes y=x-3 has m=1/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move up 1 unit and 1 unit to the right. plot a point and connect.

y=-4x+3 has m =-4/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move down four units and to the right 1 unit. plot a point and connect.

the solution is the point (x,y) where the two lines intersect. by the graph below it is (0,-3).

b. to solve by substitution, substitute y = -4x-3 into x= y+3

x= (-4x-3) +3

x=-4x

5x=0

x=0

now substitute x = 0 back in to find y.

y= -4(0)-3

y=0-3

y=-3

solution is (0,-3)

c. use elimination by adding the equations together.

x-y=3

4x+y=-3

5x=0

x=0

then substitute into one equation to find y.

y=-4(0)-3

y=-3
