Substitution method...need help.. started but cant finish

Solve either equation for either variable. Since the second one has y on its own, the easiest choice is to solve that for y.

-5x + y = 13   ⇒   y = 5x + 13

Now substitute this into the other equation to eliminate y and rewrite it entirely in terms of x :

-3x + 3y = 3   ⇒   -3x + 3 (5x + 13) = 3

Simplify and solve for x :

-3x + 15x + 39 = 3

12x = -36

x = -3

Substitute this into either original equation to solve for y. Plugging x = -3 into the first equation would give

-3 (-3) + 3y = 3

9 + 3y = 3

3y = -6

y = -2

So the solution to the system of equations is (x, y) = (-3, -2).

Look at number 17. What did I do wrong?
Gnesinka [82]
When you are checking your answers, your formula should read out as 9(2.222) - 8 = 12, which is simply filing in the x value that you calculated (it comes out to 11.998 which is correct). You wrote it out as 9(2.22) - 8 = -6, which is why your checking process was incorrect

What number must you add to complete the square x^-8x=39
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Given equation: x^2-8x =39

when we complete the square , we take half of the value of 8 , then square it, and added to the left sides, we get;

x^2-8x+4^2 = 39 +4^2

∵8 is the value (\frac{8}{2})^2

Notice that, we add this both sides so that it maintains the equality.

then;

x^2-8x+4^2 = 39 +4^2

(x-4)^2 = 39 + 16   [ (a-b)^2 = a^2-2ab+b^2 ]

Simplify:

(x-4)^2 =55

The number must be added to complete the square is, 4^2 = 16

Identify what type of polygon this is
DaniilM [7]

1. This is a nonagon. A nonagon is a 9-sided polygon; the figure has 9 sides.


2. This is not a regular polygon. A regular polygon is equiangular and equilateral which means that all of the angles are equal in measure and all of the sides are equal in length. The figure shown does not have equal sides or angles; therefore, it is an irregular polygon.
