Answer:
x = -4, y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Normally, if it's allowed, I would use a graphing calculator which basically turns the equations (-2x+y=4) and (y=
x-2) into two straight lines, which represent the line of possible values that can fit into the equations. However, since you want the value of x and y in both equations to be the same, you have to look for the intersection of the two graphs. I use desmos.com/calculator to just type in the equations and the lines would be drawn automatically. By hovering over the equation, I can get the two values of x and y (the first value is for x, and the second one is for y).
Here is the working if you want to work it out by hand: (I'm using algebra for this one)
-2x+y=4 -------------------------------- Equation 1
y=
x-2 ---------------------------------- Equation 2
Substitute Equation 2 into Equation 1:
-2x+
x-2=4
Simplify:
-1
x-2=4
-1
x=4+2
-1
x=6
1
x=-6
x=-6
3x=-6×2
3x=-12
x=-12÷3
x=-4 ------------------------------------ Equation 3
Substitute Equation 3 into Equation 1:
-2(-4)+y=4
Simplify:
8+y=4
y=4-8
y=-4
Thus, x=-4, y=-4
Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
X in litres is 67% herbicide
y in litres is 46% herbicide
{x+y=42
{0.67x+0.46y=42*0.55
{67x+46y=2310
{46x+46y=1932
21x=378
x=18 litres
A. She need to use 18L
Answer:
option B
Step-by-step explanation:
given,
3-month T-bill currently yields = 3%
customer price have been rising = 2% rate
Ai Lun's estimate of the real rate = ?
real rate return
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 0.0098
= 0.98 % ≅ 1 %
hence, the correct answer is option B
Answer:
B. Time(length)
Step-by-step explanation:
The function that would be represented as a good name for a function for the length of the race and the return the time required to finished it
here the independent variable or the INPUT is the length while the output would be the time that required to finish it
Hence, the correct option is B,
Therefore all the other options would be incorrect
