The x-coordinate of the solution for the system equation is x = -7

The first thing you should know is that you have a system of two equations with two unknowns.
Clearing we have:
y-x = 9
2y + 2x = -10
Step1: multiply equation 1 by -2
-2y + 2x = -18
2y + 2x = -10
Step2: add both equations:
4x = -28
x = -28 / 4 = -7
answer
The x-coordinate of the solution for the system of equations is x = -7

$149,000 estate is to be divided between two charities so that one charity receives $18,000 less than the other. How much will e

loris [4]

For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: amount of money for charity 1.
y: amount of money for charity 2.
We now write the system of equations that models the problem:
$x + y = 149000

y = x-18000$
We solve the system.
Using substitution we have:
$x + (x-18000) = 149000
$
Clearing x:
$2x = 149000 + 18000

x = 167000/2

x = 83500$
Then, the value of the second charity is:
$y = x-18000

y = 83500-18000

y = 65500$
Answer:
charity 1 = $ 83500
charity 2 = 65500 $

Simplify 1-cot(x)/tan(x)-1

netineya [11]

$\bf \cfrac{1-cot(x)}{tan(x)-1}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
cot(\theta)=\cfrac{cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}
\\\\ tan(\theta)=\cfrac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}
\end{cases}\qquad thus
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1-\frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}}{\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}-1}\implies 
\cfrac{\frac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{sin(x)}}{\frac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)}}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
recall\implies \cfrac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{{{ d}}}}\implies \cfrac{a}{b}\cdot \cfrac{{{ d}}}{c}\qquad thus\\\\
-----------------------------$

$\bf \cfrac{\frac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{sin(x)}}{\frac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{cos(x)}}\implies \cfrac{sin(x)-cos(x)}{sin(x)}\cdot \cfrac{cos(x)}{sin(x)-cos(x)}\implies \boxed{?}$

The quotient of a number and -9 increased by 10 is 11.

andrezito [222]

So the division of a number and -9 or
x/-9

+10=11 or

(x/-9)+10=11
subtract 10 from both sides
x/-9=1
multiply both sides by -9
x=-9
