When using substitution, we are imputing an equation in place of a variable to eliminate one of the variables in the equation so that we can solve for the remaining variable.

For this example, we will be plugging in (-4y+12) wherever "x" is in the other equation.

3/4 x -5y = 7
3/4(-4y+12) -5y =7
((3/4)(-4y))+((3/4)12)-5y=7
-3y+9-5y=7
-8y= -2
y=(1/4)


Now find "x" by plugging in the y-value.
x=(-4*(1/4))+12
x= -1 +12
x=11

Answer:

I think it is 4 white and 3 blue

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they have 3 cups of white then 6 cups of white so i think they multiplied it. Then they have 4 cups of blue then 8 cups of blue. So if you multiply it, it will give you the answer. I hope this is right and it helped and can you mark me brainliest!!!!!!!!

Answer:

1.

-3x + 8y = -5

6x + 2y = -8

Set the equations to a common variable.

-3x + 8y = -5 → 8y = 3x - 5 → y = 3/8x - 5/8

6x + 2y = -8 → 2y = -6x - 8 → y = -3x - 4

Set the equations equal to each other.

3/8x - 5/8 = -3x - 4

Combine like terms.

3x + 3/8x = -4 + 5/8

3.375x = -3.375

Divide by 3.375

x = -1

Plug x back in to find y.

-3x + 8y = -5

-3(-1) + 8y = -5

3 + 8y = -5

8y = -8

y = -1

answer: (-1, -1)

2.

3x + 2y = -16

-3x - 8y = 46

Set the equations to a common variable.

3x + 2y = -16 → 2y = -3x - 16 → y = -3/2x - 8

-3x - 8y = 46 → -8y = 3x + 46 → y = -3/8x - 23/4

Set the equations equal to each other.

-3/2x - 8 = -3/8x - 23/4

Combine like terms.

-9/8x = 9/4

or

-1.125x = 2.25

Divide by -1.125

x = -2

Plug x back in to find y.

3(-2) + 2y = -16

-6 + 2y = -16

2y = -10

y = -5

answer: (-2, -5)

Values of the composite function:

(g\cdot f)(-1)=6

(g\cdot f)(0)=7

(f\cdot g)(-1)=3

(f\cdot g)(4)=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two functions f(x) and g(x), their composite function is given by

(f\cdot g)(x) = f(g(x))

Which means using the output value of g(x) as input for f(x).

Let's start by computing

(g\cdot f)(-1)

First, we compute the value of f(-1), which is (from the graph)

f(-1) = 1

Now we use this value as input into g(x); we notice that at x = 1, the value of g(x) is 6, therefore:

(g\cdot f)(-1)=6

Now we evaluate

(g\cdot f)(0)

First, we compute the value of f(0), which is (from the graph)

f(0) = 0

Now we use this value as input into g(x); at x = 0, the value of g(x) is 7, therefore:

(g\cdot f)(0)=7

Now we evaluate

(f\cdot g)(-1)

First, we compute the value of g(-1), which is (from the graph)

g(-1) = 5

Now we use this value as input into f(x); at x = 5, the value of f(x) is 3, therefore:

(f\cdot g)(-1)=3

Finally we evaluate

(f\cdot g)(4)

First, we compute the value of g(4), which is (from the graph)

g(4) = 4

Now we use this value as input into f(x); at x = 4, the value of f(x) is 2, therefore:

(f\cdot g)(4)=2
