X, y, z denote children's movies, western movies, and horror movies, respectively. The related system of equations is formed and solved.

\left\{\begin{matrix} \qquad\qquad\ \dfrac{60}{100}x + \dfrac{50}{100}y =\dfrac{30}{100}(x+y+z)\\ \dfrac{20}{100}x+ \dfrac{60}{100}y+ \dfrac{60}{100}z= \dfrac{1}{2}(x+y+z) \\ \ \ \ x+100=y \end{matrix} \right.\

Simplifying the system of equations, we have

\left\{\begin{matrix} 3x + 2y -3z=0\\ -3x+ y+ z= 0 \\ \ \ \ x+100=y \end{matrix} \right.\ \ \Longrightarrow \ \left\{\begin{matrix} 5x-3z=-200\\ -2x+ z= -100 \end{matrix} \right.\

\ \ \  5x-3z=-200\\\underline{-6x+3z=-300} \ \Rightarrow \ x=500\\\ \ -x+0= \ 500

                                       y&=500+100=600\\ z&=3(500)-600=900

The video store has 500 children's movies, 600 westerns and 900 horror movies.

PLS 40 points

<h2>2x+y=2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p1 be the point (-1,4)

Let p2 be the point (3,-4)

The equation of the line passing through two points p1=(x_{1},y_{1})

and p2=(x_{2},y_{2}) is \frac{y-y_{1}}{x-x_{1}} =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

substituting p1,p2 in the above equation yields

\frac{y-4}{x-(-1)}=\frac{-4-4}{3-(-1)}

which when simplified gives \frac{y-4}{x+1}=\frac{-8}{4}

which when further simplified gives 2x+y=2

user100 [1]

Answer:

-7x^{2} -3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

(-2x^2-5x-7) - (5x^2-2x-5)\\\\-2x^2 - 5x^2  = -7 x^2\\-5x - -2x = -3x\\-7 - -5 = -2 \\Result: -7x^2-3x-2

Does the point ( 2, 1 ) satisfy the equation y = 2x?
densk [106]

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Y=2x goes up twice and to the right once, it passes through the origin, therefore it won't touch or go pass by point (2,1)
