Question

Y = (-3/2)x + 9 2x + 4y = 17 solve the system of equations
step by step​

Answer 1

x = 19/4 and y = 15/8

Explanation:

Given:

y = (-3/2)x + 9

2x + 4y = 17

Move y to one side:

2x + 4y = 17

y = 17/4 - x/2

Solve for x:

(-3/2)x + 9 = 17/4 - x/2

x = 19/4

Substitute x to solve for y:

y = (-3/2)(19/4) + 9

y = 15/8

2(19/4) + 4y = 17

y = 15/8
