2x-5y = 10

Mathematics

Lelechka [254]4 years ago

Answer:

Hey there!

2x-5y=10

Add 5y on both sides to get: 2x=10+5y

Divide by 2, not 2x. This will isolate the x.

x=5+2.5y

x=2.5y+5

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

x = 5 + 5y/2

Step-by-step explanation:

When you get to 2x = 10 + 5y,

you should divide both sides with 2 only instead of 2x. Because if you divide 2x on both sides, the left side would only remain 1  (since 2x/2x = 1)

2x = 10 + 5y

x = (10 + 5y) / 2

x = 10/2 + 5y/2

x = 5 + 5y/2 .( or  5 + (5/2)y)

Answer:

  • 9x -5y = 4 . . . . standard form
  • 9x -5y -4 = 0 . . . . general form
  • y -1 = 9/5(x -1) . . . . . point-slope form

Step-by-step explanation:

The intercepts are ...

  x-intercept = -4/-9 = 4/9

  y-intercept = -4/5

Knowing these intercepts means we can put the equation in intercept form.

  x/(4/9) -y/(4/5) = 1

The fractional intercepts make graphing somewhat difficult. However, we observe that the sum of the x- and y-coefficients is equal to the constant:

  -9 +5 = -4

This means the point (x, y) = (1, 1) is on the graph. Knowing a point, we can write several equations using that point.

We like a positive leading coefficient (as for standard or general form), so we can multiply the given equation by -1.

  9x -5y = 4 . . . . . standard form equation

Adding -4, so f(x,y) = 0, puts this in general form.

  9x -5y -4 = 0

We can eliminate the constant by translating a line from the origin to the point we know:

  9(x -1) -5(y -1) = 0

This can be rearranged to the traditional point-slope form ...

  y -1 = 9/5(x -1)

Yet another equation can be written that tells you the slope is the same everywhere:

  (y -1)/(x -1) = 9/5

These are only a few of the many possible forms of a linear equation.

A box 4 cm by 6 cm by 8 cm is painted on all six faces and then cut into cubes with the 2 cm sides. How many of these cubes have
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

2 cubes on each 6 × 8 face will have one surface painted. The sides of dimension 4 cm do not have enough width to have any cubes with only one face painted.

Hence, there are a total of 4 cubes with one face painted.

3x + 3 - x + (-7) > 6
Arte-miy333 [17]
3x + 3 - x + (-7) > 6

3x - x + 3 + (-7) > 6                +(-) = -

2x + 3 - 7 > 6

2x - 4 > 6

2x > 6 + 4

2x > 10          Divide both sides by 2

x > 10/2

x > 5

Solve the simultaneous equations<br> 3<br> 2x - y = 7<br> xy = 15
ehidna [41]

Answer:

(5, 3 ) and (- \frac{3}{2}, - 10 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x - y = 7 → (1)

xy = 15 → (2)

Rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x , that is

y = 2x - 7 → (3)

Substitute y = 2x - 7 into (2)

x(2x - 7) = 15

2x² - 7x = 15 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

2x² - 7x - 15 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 5)(2x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 3 ⇒ x = - \frac{3}{2}

Substitute these values into (3) for corresponding values of y

x = 5 : y = 2(5) - 7 = 10 - 7 = 3 ⇒ (5, 3 )

x = - \frac{3}{2} : y = 2(- \frac{3}{2} ) - 7 = - 3 - 7 = - 10 ⇒ (- \frac{3}{2}, - 10 )
