Answer:

x = \frac{5}{2}, y = \frac{5}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Isolate for x in one of the equations:

2x = 9x - 14y

2x-9x = 9x-9x -14y

-7x = -14y

-7x/-7 = -14y/-7

x = 2y

2. Substitute 2y in for x in the second equation:

9(2y) = 40 - 14y

3. Simplify:

18y = 40 - 14y

4. Isolate for y:

18y+14y = 40 -14y+14y

32y = 40

32y/32 = 40/32

y = \frac{5}{4}

5. Substitute the new y-value into the simplified expression x = 2y:

x = 2(5/4)

x = \frac{5}{2}

hope this helps!

Graph the function. y=2x
harkovskaia [24]
This is a linear function.  If x=0, y=0; if x=2, y=4, etc.  Plot the points given by these coordinate pairs:  (0,0), (2,4), ....

The resulting graph is the straight line drawn thru these points.  It has a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of 0.


If you meant y = 2^x, then you have an exponential function, which is an entirely different matter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based off of the fitted line, we obtain expected values, given an input. If the input is 0 minutes remaining (meaning a student turns in a test with no time remaining), the expected value of their exam score is 87.

Which is the solution set of the compound inequality 3.5 x -10> -3 and 8x -9 <39
aivan3 [116]
3.5x-10>-3  add 10 to both sides

3.5x>13  divide both sides by 3.5

x>26/7

x=(26/7, +oo)

...

8x-9<39  add 9 to both sides

8x<48  divide both sides by 8

x<6

x=(-oo,6)

Since this is a compound inequality with AND the solution set will be the union of the two intervals found above.

x=(26/7, 6)
