Which determinants can be used to solve for x and y in the system of linear equations below?
4x+16y=-68
12x+3y=21

Respuesta :

Are there choices? If there are, you should list them because there are some equivalents.
[tex] \left[\begin{array}{cc}4&16\\12&3\end{array}\right] \\  \left[\begin{array}{cc}-68&16\\21&3\end{array}\right] = x \\   \left[\begin{array}{cc}4&-68\\12&21\end{array}\right] = y \\ [/tex]

I'm assuming that you can solve these things. The top determinant comes to -180. The x value comes to - 540. When divided by the top one x = 3

The bottom determinant (y) comes to 900 and when divided by - 180 makes y = - 5. The checks out with actually solving the system of equations some other way.
