Im nearly finished all my homework but im stuck on the remaining three. Please help!

1) Given that 3x-2y=4
find the value of Y when x= -2

2) Solve 3(x+1)= 4 - (x-3)

3) Solve
X/3 + 3x/4 - 2x-1/2= 1 (<==== these are in fractions)

please help!

3x-2y=4
find the value of Y when x= -2

just fill in for x the value of -2

it will give you :
3x-2y=4
-6 -2y = 4
or
-2y = 4 + 6 ; sign flips
-2y=10

thus y = 10 / -2 = -5.

2) idem dito
3) idem dito

1.) 3(-2) - 2y = 4 -->
-6 - 2y = 4 -->
-2y = 4+6 -->
-2y = 10 --> y = -5

2.) 3x+3 = 4 -x+3 -->
3x+3 = 7-x -->
3x+x = 7-3 -->
4x = 4 --> x=1

3.) I am confused by your equation. Is it...
x/3 + 3x/4 - (2x-1)/2 = 1?
I don't know if that 2x-1 goes together

1)
y=5
2) x=1

1) -6 -2y = 4; 4-6 = 2y; -2 = 2y; y = -1 2 ) 3x + 3 - 4 + (x-3) = 0; 3x -1 + (x-3) =0; divide by x:
3-1/x + (x-3)/x =0/x Take it from there. I gotta fix dinner.

Fun! Here's the first one

3x-2y=4
3(-2) = -6, so
-6 - 2y = 4
-6-4 = 2y (we subtracted four from both sides)
-10=2y
-10/2 = 2y/2 (devide both sides by two)
-5 = y

(the rest of you are too fast for me :)

3. x/3+3x/4-2x-1/2=1
4x+9x-24x-6=12
-11x=18
x=-18/11

I can only help you on nm. 1. sorry!! but here it is


1.think it through. 3x are bedise each other so its means mutiply so 3x2=6 6-2=4 so, what is the only number that you can multiply another number by and still have the same number? 1! so, y=1

2007-09-12 16:35:49 · answer #7 · answered by kiuumm 2 · 0 0

the first one is
3(-2)-2y=4
-6-2y=4
-2y=10
y=-5

2. 3x+3=4-x+3
4x=4
x=1

1. -5

2. 1

3. I think 18
