1. 4x + 3y = -2
2. x - y = -4
Multiplying 2. by 3 gives: (we have done this so that we end up with a -3y)
3. 3x - 3y = -12
1. added to 3. gives: (now, by adding, the 3y & -3y will cancel out)
4. 7x = -14 (the 4x + the 3x gives 7x, the y's cancel out, -2 + -12 gives -14)
thus x = -14/7
x = -2
Substituting x = -2 into 1. gives
(4 * -2) + 3y = -2
-8 + 3y = -2
3y = -2 + 8
3y = 6
y = 2
Thus x = -2 and y = 2.

What is inverse function for fx equals x divided by x minus 3?
y = x/(x - 3) so y(x - 3) = x xy - 3y = x xy - x = 3y x(y - 1) = 3y x = 3y/(y - 1) for y ≠1 So, the inverse function is f(y) = 3y/(y - 1) where y ≠1
4xy plus 1 equals 3y-7x solve for y?
4xy+1=3y-7x 4xy-3y=-7x-1 y(4x-3)=-7x-1 y=(-7x-1)/(4x-3)
What is the substiution eqaution for x plus y equals 15 and 4x plus 3y equals 38?
x + y = 154x + 3y = 38from the first equation, y = 15-xsubstitute this value in the second equation as follows:4x + 3(15-x)= 384x + 45 - 3x = 38x + 45 = 38x = 38 - 45so, x = -7substitute this value to solve for y:y = 15 -xy = 15-(-7)y = 22

3x plus 2y multiplied by 5x-3y equals?
(3x+2y)*(5x-3y) =3x*5x + 3x*(-3y) + 2y*5x + 2y*(-3y) [This is sometimes called the FOIL method - You multiply the First members of each bracket, then the Outers, Inners, Lasts] = 15x2 - 9xy + 10xy - 6y2 = 15x2 + xy - 6y2
X square plus 4x plus xy plus 4y?
In order to combine terms, the variable(s) must be the same and the exponent(s) must be the same on the variables. Since you have an x2 term, x term, xy term and y term, none of the terms can be combined. So, the answer is: x2 + 4x + xy + 4y. The only thing you could do in this problem is to factor out a 4 from the 4x & 4y so another way to write this is: x2 + xy + 4(x + y).
