Answer:
Explanation:
Given system
- 4x + 6y = 18
- (y + 2) = 1/3(x + 2)
Solution is the intersection point:
Simplify the first equation:
- 2x + 3y = 9
- 3y = -2x + 9
- y = -2/3x + 3
Check:
- 1/9 = -2/3*4 1/3 + 9
- 1/9 = -26/9 + 9
- 1/9 = (27 - 26)/9
- 1/9 = 1/9
Simplify the second equation:
- y + 2 = 1/3x + 2/3
- y = 1/3x + 2/3 - 2
- y = 1/3x - 4/3
Check:
- 1/9 = 1/3*13/3 - 4/3
- 1/9 = (13 - 12)/9
- 1/9 = 1/9
