Mathematics
1 answer:
Taya2010 [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

2(3x+y=4)

1(x+2y=-2)

6x+2y=8

<u>(-) x+2y=-2</u>

<u>5x=10</u>

5

x=2

x+2y=-1

2+2y=-1

<u>-</u><u>2</u><u> -</u><u>2</u>

<u>2y=-</u><u>3</u>

2

y=-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. multiply the first equation by 2 to make y equal to each other.
  2. subtract to eliminate y
  3. divide by 5 to get x
  4. take one of the equations
  5. replace x by 2 to solve for y

"If you subtract 12 from my number and multiply the difference by -15 ​, the result is -140​." What is ​'s ​number?
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The answer would be 2.7. Am not very sure though

Step-by-step explanation:

So what you do is

for example the unkown number is x and the answer you get is y

12-x=y * -15=-140

-140/-15=9.33 (this is y the answer)

12-x=9.3

12-9.3=2.7

To check your answer

12-2.7=9.3

9.3 * -15=-139.5 if you round it then it would be -140

Which order pair is a solution of this equation. 5x+y=-25
crimeas [40]

Answer:

(-5,0) or (0,-25) is another solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Do you have a list of choices? If not, you could choose random choices for x and y to determine if they are solutions. Start by letting y = 0. We see that x = -5, so (-5, 0) is a solution to this equation. In fact, it represents the x-intercept of this line. Now, let x = 0. We now see that y = -25, so (0, -25) is another solution to the equation of this line. This coordinate pair is the y-intercept of the line. Try using other values of x and y to see if you can come up with other solutions to this equation.

Julie runs 2 1/2 miles in the morning for 3 days per week, 6 1/2 miles in the morning for 2 days a week, the other days she ride
Makovka662 [10]
2.5*3 = 7.5 She run's 2 1/2 miles, which is equivalent to 2.5 miles, and 3 days per week, so you multiply 2.5 by 3
6.5 *2 = 13 She run's 6.5 miles per day for 2 days, again, because 6 1/2 is equivalent to 6.5 miles. Since she ran for 2 days so you multiply 6.5 by 2
13+7.5 = 20.5 miles
as for the answer, you just add the two numbers you got from Julie running

4y=2(y−5)−2
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4y = 2(y - 5) - 2

4y = 2y - 10 - 2

4y - 2y = -12

2y = -12

y = -12/2

y = -6 <===
