Answer:
x = 3 , y = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that both equations is equal to y. Set the two equations equal to each other
y = 7x - 8; y = 5x - 2
7x - 8 = y = 5x - 2
7x - 8 = 5x - 2
Isolate the x. Subtract 5x and add 8 to both sides
7x (-5x) - 8 (+8) = 5x (-5x) - 2 (+8)
7x - 5x = -2 + 8
Simplify.
(7x - 5x) = (-2 + 8)
2x = 6
Isolate the x. Divide 2 from both sides
(2x)/2 = (6)/2
x = 6/2
x = 3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Plug in 3 for x in one of the equations.
y = 7x - 8
y = 7(3) - 8
Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS.
y = 7(3) - 8
y = 21 - 8
y = 13
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x = 3, y = 13 is your answer

The missing factor is (a -1) I believe. If you foil (5a + 9)(a - 1) you would get 5a^2 + 4a - 9.
Hi Quanzia25,
Solution:
45mph
45mph x 4hrs. = 180 miles in 4 hours
45 / 3 = 15
180 + 15 = 195
Answer:
The car has traveled 195 miles.
Answer:
3 2
/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide using long division. The whole number portion will be the number of times the denominator of the original fraction divides evenly into the numerator of the original fraction, and the fraction portion of the mixed number will be the remainder of the original fraction division over the denominator of the original fraction.
2/3, 4/5, 1/8 is the correct order from greatest to least.
