Using the elimination method, the value of x in the system of equations is calculated as: 8.

<h3>How to Solve a System of Equations by Elimination?</h3>

To solve a system of equations given using the elimination method, do the following:

Multiply 2x - 5y = 1 by 2 and multiply -3x + 2y = -18 by 5 to get the following:

4x - 10y = 2 --> eqn. 1

-15x + 10y = -90 --> eqn. 2

Add

-11x = -88

Divide both sides by -11

x = 8

What is the area of the garden, Explain your answer
SashulF [63]
The area of the garden would be 192 square feet. When you divide the area of his backyard by the side known, you find the missing side. The missing side is 24, which means that is the other leg of the triangle. By using the area formula for a right triangle you find the answer.

I will give you a crown pls help

The first function is y = 4x + 5 so the slope is 4

To find the slope of the second function, do rise or run which is 6-10/1-3 = 2

since 4 is greater than 2, function 1 is greater so the answer is the second choice.

The solution for x2 + 2x + 8 ≤ 0 is
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Please use " ^ " for exponentiation: x^2 + 2x + 8 ≤ 0.

Let's solve this by completing the square:

x^2 + 2x + 8 ≤ 0 => x^2 + 2x + 1^2 - 1^2 + 8 ≤ 0. Continuing this rewrite:

(x + 1)^2 + 7 ≤ 0

Taking the sqrt of both sides: (x + 1)^2 = i*sqrt(7)

Then the solutions are x = -1 + i√7 and x = -1 - i√7

There's something really wrong here. I've graphed your function, x^2 + 2x + 8, and can see from the graph that there are no real roots, but only complex roots. Please double-check to ensure that you've copied down this problem correctly.

Complete the equation of the line whose slope is -2 and y-intercept is (0,-8)<br><br>y= ????​
inessss [21]

Answer:

y = -2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. Slope is m, and y-intercept is b. To do this, we substitute -2 for m and -8 for b. When we do this, we get y = -2x + -8. We can simplify this to y = -2x - 8.
