-6x+3y=(189/10) Geometric figure: Straight Line Slope = 2 x-intercept = -63/20 = -3.15000 y-intercept = 63/10 = 6.30000Reformatting the input :Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "18.9" was replaced by "(189/10)".Rearrange:Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
-6*x+3*y-((189/10))=0 Step by step solution :Step 1 : 189 Simplify ——— 10 Equation at the end of step 1 : 189 (3y - 6x) - ——— = 0 10 Step 2 :Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction : 2.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 10 as the denominator : 3y - 6x (3y - 6x) • 10 3y - 6x = ——————— = —————————————— 1 10 Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominatorStep 3 :Pulling out like terms : 3.1 Pull out like factors :
3y - 6x = -3 • (2x - y)
Adding fractions that have a common denominator : 3.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible: -3 • (2x-y) • 10 - (189) -60x + 30y - 189 ———————————————————————— = ———————————————— 10 10 Step 4 :Pulling out like terms : 4.1 Pull out like factors :
-60x + 30y - 189 = -3 • (20x - 10y + 63)
Equation at the end of step 4 : -3 • (20x - 10y + 63) ————————————————————— = 0 10 Step 5 :When a fraction equals zero : 5.1 When a fraction equals zero ...Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.
Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.
Here's how: -3•(20x-10y+63) ——————————————— • 10 = 0 • 10 10 Now, on the left hand side, the 10 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.
The equation now takes the shape :
-3 • (20x-10y+63) = 0Equations which are never true : 5.2 Solve : -3 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.Equation of a Straight Line 5.3 Solve 20x-10y+63 = 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 20x-10y+63 = 0 and calculate its propertiesGraph of a Straight Line : Calculate the Y-Intercept :Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is 63/10 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y= 6.30000 y-intercept = 63/10 = 6.30000 Calculate the X-Intercept :When y = 0 the value of x is -63/20 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=-3.15000 x-intercept = -63/20 = -3.15000 Calculate the Slope :Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is 6.300 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 10.300. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 10.300 - 6.300 = 4.000 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN) Slope = 2Geometric figure: Straight Line Slope = 2 x-intercept = -63/20 = -3.15000 y-intercept = 63/10 = 6.30000
