Answer:
the x
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the x in an equation can reveal its shape. A linear graph can look like y=x, y=mx, y=mx+b (m being any number).
When you look at graphs that aren't linear, the x doesn't stand alone in the equation.
Parabolas have a y=x^2 equation. Cubic graphs are y=x^3. They have something attached to the x.
To see all the different kinds of equations and what their graphs look like you can search up "parent functions" and all the basic formulas show up.
Answer:
x = -2
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given two equations
1. 7x + 10y = 36
2. y = 2x + 9
Substitute 2x + 9 for y in equation 1.
We have
7x + 10y = 36
7x + 10(2x + 9) = 36
Distribute 10 into (2x + 9)
We have
7x + 10 x 2x + 10 x 9 = 36
7x + 20x + 90 = 36
27x + 90 = 36
Subtract 90 from both sides to eliminate 90 on the left side
27x + 90 - 90 = 36 - 90
27x = -54
Divide both sides by 27 to isolate x
27x/27 = -54/27
x = -2
Now substitute -2 into either equation to get y
Using equation 2, we have
y = 2x + 9
= 2 x -2 + 9
= -4 + 9
= 5
x = -2
y = 5
Check
7(-2) + 10(5) = 36
Pemdas, ok first 17 plus 8 is 15, 6 times 2 is 12 , so 15 minus 12 is 3. answer is 3
