Answer:

y = 9/13

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -4 + y

5(-4 + y) + 4y = 7

-20 + 9y = 7

9y = -13

Answer:

5x + 4y = 7 × -2

-2x - 2y = 8 × 5

-10x - 8y = -14

-10x - 10y = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

2y = -54 ÷2

y = -27

Now substitute the value of y into equation (1)

5x + 4y = 7

5x + 4(-27) = 7

5x = 7 + 108

5x = 115

X = 23

Find the distance between the points (-5, 0) and (-4, 1).

choli [55]

The formula of a distance between two points A and B is :

$AB=\sqrt{(x_{B}- x_{A})^2 +( y_{B}- y_{A})^2 }$

You should this formula by heart.

Then, you just have to apply it ! :D

Here :

$x_{A}=-5$
$y_{A} =0$

$x_{B} =-4$
$y_{B}= 1$

Therefore :

$\sqrt{(-4-(-5))^2+(1-0)^2}$
$= \sqrt{1^2+1^2}$
$= \sqrt{1+1}$
$= \sqrt{2}$

In short, the answer would be the first option : $\sqrt{2}$ .

Hope this helps !
