Solve the system using elimination.5x-9y=12x-9y=-12

NemiM [27]1 year ago

Answer:

x = 6

y = 2

Explanation:

To solve the system using elimination, we need to multiply the second equation by -1, so the second equation is equivalent to:

x - 9y = -12

-1 (x - 9y) = -1 (-12)

-x + 9y = 12

Then, we can sum this equation and the first equation. So:

5x - 9y = 12

-x + 9y = 12

4x + 0 = 24

So, we can solve for x, as:

4x = 24

4x/4 = 24/4

x = 6

Then, we can replace x by 6 on the first equation and solve for y, so:

5x - 9y = 12

5(6) - 9y = 12

30 - 9y = 12

30 - 9y - 30 = 12 - 30

-9y = -18

-9y/(-9) = -18/(-9)

y = 2

Therefore, the solution of the system is x = 6 and y = 2

Which of the following graphs is a polynomial function with x-intercepts of (-3,0)(-1,0), and (2,0)?​
Helen [10]
The intercepts of the third degree polynomial corresponds to the zeros of the equation
y = d*(x-a)*(x-b)(x-c)
Where a, b and c are the roots of the polynomial and d an adjustment coefficient.
y = d*(x+2)*(x)*(x-3)
Lets assume d = 1, and we get
y = (x+2)*(x)*(x-3) = x^3 - x^2 - 6x
We graph the equation in the attached file.

I/pai is rational or irrational?
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Pi is an irrational number

Step-by-step explanation:

Pi is an irrational number, meaning it is a real number that cannot be stated as a fraction. That's because pi is a "infinite decimal," meaning the digits go on forever and ever after the decimal point.

Hope this helps! Have a great day!
