Answer:

Hello, so most of your steps are in the correct order. All you need to do is switch is the following steps.

x = -3 ± 5/2 should go before x = -3 + 5/2 and x = -3 - 5/2 as the second seperates the the ± into + and -

[You need to switch steps 4 and 5]

What does y equal. -4y+6y-5=9

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

$-4y+6y-5=9$

Add -4y and 6y

$2y-5=9$

Move all terms not containing y to the right side of the equation.

$2y=14$

Divide both sides by 2

$y=7$

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of inequalities?

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

System of the inequalities is,

y ≥ 2x

y < x + 4

By satisfying these inequalities with the points given in the options we can get the answer.

Option (A). (2, 5)

y ≥ 2x

5 ≥ 2(2)

5 ≥ 4

True.

y < x + 4

5 < 2 + 4

5 < 6

True

Therefore, Option (1) is the answer.

Option (B) (1, 6)

y ≥ 2x

6 ≥ 2(1)

6 ≥ 2

True.

y < x + 4

6 < 1 + 4

6 < 5

False.

Therefore, it's not the solution.

Option (C) (2, 3)

y ≥ 2x

3 ≥ 2(2)

3 ≥ 4

False.

y < x + 4

4 < 2 + 4

4 < 6

True.

Therefore, It's not the solution.

Option (D) (1, 5)

y ≥ 2x

5 ≥ 2(1)

5 ≥ 4

True.

y < x + 4

5 < 1 + 4

5 < 5

False.

Therefore, It's not the solution.

Find the equation of a line that passes through the points (-1,-5) and (-3,-4). Leave your answer in the form y=mx+c

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

y = -1/2x - 11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

-4 - (-5) / -3 - (-1)

1/ -2

= -1/2

y = -1/2x + b

-5 = -1/2(-1) + b

-5 = 1/2 + b

-11/2 = b

Can someone give me the answers and step by step instructions please??

Answer:

$-1,4,-7,10,...$ neither

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ geometric progression

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ arithmetic progression

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

sequences: $-1,4,-7,10,...$

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$

To find: which of the given sequence forms arithmetic progression, geometric progression or neither of them

Solution:

A sequence forms an arithmetic progression if difference between terms remain same.

A sequence forms a geometric progression if ratio of the consecutive terms is same.

For $-1,4,-7,10,...$ :

$4-(-1)=5\\-7-4=-11\\10-(-7)=17\\So,\,\,4-(-1)\neq -7-4\neq 10-(-7)$

Hence,the given sequence does not form an arithmetic progression.

$\frac{4}{-1}=-4\\\frac{-7}{4}=\frac{-7}{4}\\\frac{10}{-7}=\frac{-10}{7}\\So,\,\,\frac{4}{-1}\neq \frac{-7}{4}\neq \frac{10}{-7}$

Hence,the given sequence does not form a geometric progression.

So, $-1,4,-7,10,...$ is neither an arithmetic progression nor a geometric progression.

For $192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ :

$\frac{24}{192}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{3}{24}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}=\frac{1}{8}\\So,\,\,\frac{24}{192}=\frac{3}{24}=\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}$

As ratio of the consecutive terms is same, the sequence forms a geometric progression.

For $-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ :

$-18-(-25)=-18+25=7\\-11-(-18)=-11+18=7\\-4-(-11)=-4+11=7\\So,\,\,-18-(-25)=-11-(-18)=-4-(-11)$

As the difference between the consecutive terms is the same, the sequence forms an arithmetic progression.

HELLLPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WILL MAKE YOU BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

A. 12x; 5x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Perimeter is:</u>

P = a + b + c
P = 4x - 3 + x + 9 + 8 = 5x + 14

A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2*8*3x = 12x

Correct choice is A
