2x - 3y = -1

3x + 2y = 31

eqn(1) * 2: 4x - 6y = -2

eqn(2) * 3: 9x + 6y = 93

Add the two: 13x = 91

Divide both sides by 13: x = 7

Substitute this value of x into eqn(1): 14 - 3y = -1

Add 3y to bot sides: 14 = -1 + 3y

Add 1 to both sides: 15 = 3y

Divide both sides by 3: 5 = y

So the solution is x = 7, y = 5

What is the slope of line with the equation 2x 3y plus 6 equals 0?

Put the equation in this form: y=mx+b. Then m will be the slope. 2x3y+6=0 2x3y=-6 3y=-6/2x y=-2/2x y=-1/x This equation does not describe a straight line, but rather, it describes a curve.


Where do the curves of y equals 4x squared -2x -1 and y equals -2x squared plus 3x plus 5 intersect?

They intersect at points (-2/3, 19/9) and (3/2, 5) Solved by combining the two equations together to equal nought and then using the quadratic equation formula to find the values of x and substituting these values into the equations to find the values of y.
