Just subsitute values for x and get values for y
(x,y)
(0,-2)
(1,1)
(-1,-5)
(-2,-8)
here is the graph
We can represent this situation by the equation 2x+4x+5x=33.
Then 11x=33, and x = 3.
Then the children's ages are in the ratio 2x:4x:5x, or 2(3):4(3):5(3), or
6:12:15.
Do these 3 ages add up to 33? 6 + 12 + 15 = 33? YES!
The children's ages are 6, 12 and 15 years respectively.
You'd simply have to find 20% of $40. To find the percent of a number, you would change the percent into an actual decimal/number, and then multiply them both. So the percent would become 0.20.
40 × 0.20 = 8
So now you would subtract 8 from the cost of 40.
40 - 8 = 32.
The shirt costs $32.
You don't need 3 equations to get a general solution. To do this use the equations x-3y-z=0 and -x+2y+0z= -3. Start out by letting z = t. Then solving those 2 equations simultaneously, your x's cancel out leaving you with -y-z=-3. But since z=t, then -y=-3+t or y=3-t. Now sub that in for y in the first equation, along with the fact that z=t to get x-3(3-t)-t = 0 and solve for x. x=9-2t. So a general solution for this would be (9-2t, 3-t, t)
Answer:
not a solution
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -3/4 x +3
Is (3,2) a solution?
Substitute the point into the equation and see if it is true
2 = -3/4(3) +3
2 = -9/4 +3
2 = -9/4 +16/4
2 = 7/4
False
