Rewrite 7x + 4 = x – 2 as a system.

1 answer:

3 0

7x + 4 = x - 2 -- (1)

To rewrite the equation above as a system, we simply let (1) be equal to y, i.e.

7x + 4 = x - 2 = y -- (2)

Recall from the rule of transitivity: If a = b = c, then this implies that a = c & b = c. From this, we have (2) to be expressed as

y = 7x + 4 -- (i)
y = x - 2 -- (ii)

Note: (i) & (ii) are both regarded as a system of linear equation which can be evaluated simultaneously.

Answer:

(x,y)→(y,-x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram ABCD:

A(2,5)

B(5,4)

C(5,2)

D(2,3)

Parallelogram A'B'C'D':

A'(5,-4)

B'(4,-5)

C'(2,-5)

D'(3,-2)

Rule:

A(2,5)→A'(5,-2)

B(5,4)→B'(4,-5)

C(5,2)→C'(2,-5)

D(2,3)→D'(3,-2)

so the rule is

(x,y)→(y,-x)

I would label the x-axis with a scale 1-10 weeks and the y-axis with inches grown. The graph starts at 2inches because it’s the height of the plant. For the next 4 weeks there will be a growth of 1 inch a week (reaching 6) than the line stays at the height for 2 weeks until it gets sunlight again for 3 more weeks making it grown 3 more inches and repeats the process again.
