4x - 2y = 14
y = 0.5x -1

Get just one variable on one side for both equations.

4x - 2y = 14 ⇒ 4x = 2y + 14 ⇒ 4x - 14 = 2y
y = 0.5x - 1 ⇒ x - 2 = 2y

Use the transitive property and then solve for x.

x-2 = 4x-14
12 = 3x
x = 4

4x-2(1/2x-1)=14
4x-x+2=14. 1=1/2(4)-1
3x+2=14. 1=2-1
3x=12. 1=1
X=4
Y=1/2(4)-1
Y=2-1 Y=1

For the following exercises, determine whether the functions are even, odd, or neither.

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The solutions of the equation |2 x-3|=17

are x=10

and x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations is |2 x-3|=17.

It is required to find out the values of x satisfying the given equation.

To find it out, use the fact that the solution of this type of equation is 2x-3=17.

Or 2x-3=-17 and simplify the equations using simple mathematical operations.

Step 1 of 2

Solve the equation 2x-3=17,

Add 3 on both sides of the equation 2x-3=17,

2x-3+3=17+3

2x=20

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation 2x=20,

$\begin{aligned}&\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{20}{2} \\&x=10\end{aligned}$

Step 2 of 2

Solve the equation 2x-3=-17,

Add 3 on both sides of the equation 2x-3=-17,

$2 x-3+3=-17+3$\\ $2 x=-14$

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation 2x=-14,

$\begin{aligned}&\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{-14}{2} \\&x=-7\end{aligned}$

Find the slope and y-intercept of -x + 2y = 3. I need help on working this problem out

natita [175]

Answer:

So the slope of this function is $\frac{1}{2}$ and the y-intercept is $\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A first order function has the following format:

$y = ax + b$

In which a is the slope and b is the y-intercept, that is, the value of y when x = 0.

We have the following equation:

$-x + 2y = 3$

We just have to rewrite this equation

$2y = x + 3$

$y = \frac{x+3}{2}$

$y = \frac{x}{2} + \frac{3}{2}$

Which means that

$a = \frac{1}{2}, b = \frac{3}{2}$

So the slope of this function is $\frac{1}{2}$ and the y-intercept is $\frac{3}{2}$
