The solutions to the given system of equations are x = 6 and y = -5

<h3>Simultaneous linear equations</h3>

From the question, we are to solve the given system of equations

The given system of equation is

4x+5y=-1

-5x-8y=10

Multiply the <u>first equation</u> by 5 and the <u>second equation</u> by 4

5× (4x+5y=-1)

4× (-5x-8y=10)

20x + 25y = -5

-20x - 32y = 40

------------------------

0x + (-7y) = 35

-7y = 35

y = 35/-7

y = -5

Substitute the value of y into the first equation to find x

4x + 5y = -1

4x + 5(-5) = -1

4x -25 = -1

4x = -1 +25

4x = 24

x = 24/4

x = 6

Hence, the solutions to the given system of equations are x = 6 and y = -5

Answer:

|x - 4| ≤ 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual width = 4

Maximum variation, x = 0.3

Hence, the lowest width position based on actual width and possible variation is :

4 - 0.3 ≤ x ≤ 4 + 0.3

3.7 ≤ x ≤ 4.3

The table shows different possibilities for the number of students to the number of fans present at a football game. Which ratio
Deffense [45]

Answer: 7:49

Step-by-step explanation: As you can see in the table, if you divide the number of fans present at a football game by the number of students, you would always get 7. So, 7:49 is a choice because if you divide 49 by 7, you get 7. Hope this helps!!

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

you simply divide 154 by 9, get around 17.1. 17 is the closest whole number answer, so 17*9 is 153.

do 154-153, you get 1.

not the best explaination but i hope it helps.

What is the slope and y-intercept of y+3= -1/3
bazaltina [42]

Assuming this is written correctly, with no x in the equation, we just solve for y:

y = -3 - 1/3 = -10/3 = 0 x - 10/3

That's slope-intercept form.

Answer: Slope 0, y-intercept -10/3

Is x=-2 a positive slope
victus00 [196]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -2 represents a vertical line that intersects the x axis at the point (-2, 0). Since the line is vertical, the slope is undefined making it not have a positive slope.

Best of Luck!
