If (x, y) is a solution to the system of equations, what is the value of x? 2x + 1/ 2 y = 2 1/ 2 x + 2y = 6
a)
4/17
b)
174
c)
4/15
d)
15/4

  C) 4/15

Step-by-step explanation:

The two equations ...

can be solved for x using Cramer's rule:

  x = (2·2 -1/2·6)/(2·2 -1/2·1/2) = (4-3)/(4-1/4) = 1/(15/4)

  x = 4/15

Cramer's rule for the solution to ...

is ...

answer: a.   one is a factor of every whole number since every number is divisible by itself.

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4
