How would I solve y=5x-2 & -14x+y=16 in a substitution equation

Aleks04 [339]

You would substitute the given value of “y” into the equation of -14x+y=16
-14x+5x-2=16

Then you would solve for “x”
x=2

You would then substitute the value of “x” into the equation to solve for “y”
y=5(2)-2

Which would then give you a value for “y”
y=12
So the answer is (2,12)

Choices are... A)1120 B)2275 C)3500 D)2345 It's Side Splitter Theorem

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sections of the parallel roads split by the transversals are in proportion, that is

$\frac{350}{300}$ = $\frac{first}{1650}$ ( cross- multiply )

300 first = 577500 ( divide both sides by 300 )

first = 1925 ft

Thus

Elm st → Maple st = 1925 + 350 = 2275 ft → B

7. What are the solutions of the equation? x2 = 11x − 24

mote1985 [20]

Assuming you typed this correctly, and how you wanted it, then the answer(s) would be x=3, or x=8. Both answers are correct. If it were multiple choice, then the answer would look something like: X=3 or 8.
If you meant 2x, then the answer would be x=8/3. This is a fraction
