Hey, i hope that this helps! the equation is y= -4 -3/5x
so equation 3x+5y=-20 which is also y= -4 -3/5x has a slope of -3/5x

you would add 3y+5y and get 8y=-20

then the slope would be 8/1 and your y-intercept would be -20

Which statements are true about the ordered pair (-1,-4) and the system of equations?
rewona [7]

Answer:

1.When (-1,-4) is substituted into the first equation, the equation is false. FALSE

2. When (-1,-4) is substituted into the first equation, the equation is true. TRUE

3. When (-1,-4) is substituted into the second equation, the equation is false.

FALSE

4. When (-1,-4) is substituted into the second equation, the equation is true. TRUE

5.The ordered pair (-1,-4) is a solution to the system of linear equations .TRUE

6.The ordered pair (-1,-4) is not a solution to the system of linear equations.

FALSE

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given set if equations are:

x - y = 3  

7 x - y = - 3

Now, substituting the given value (-1,-4) in the given equations, we get

(1) Substitute (-1, -4) in first equation:

    x - y = 3   :  (-1, -4)

⇒  (-1) - (-4)  = -1 + 4 = 3  = Right Side

So, the equation x - y = 3    holds TRUE for (-1,-4)

(2) Substitute (-1, -4) in second  equation:

  7 x - y = - 3   :  (-1, -4)

⇒  7(-1) - (-4)  = -7  + 4 = -3  =  Right Side  

So, the equation 7 x - y = - 3  holds TRUE for (-1,-4)

Now, the given options are:

When (-1,-4) is substituted into the first equation, the equation is false.  FALSE, equation is satisfied.

When (-1,-4) is substituted into the first equation, the equation is true.

TRUE

When (-1,-4) is substituted into the second equation, the equation is false.

FALSE, the given equation is satisfied.

When (-1,-4) is substituted into the second equation, the equation is true.

TRUE

The ordered pair (-1,-4) is a solution to the system of linear equations .

TRUE,as the given point satisfies both the equations.

The ordered pair (-1,-4) is not a solution to the system of linear equations.

FALSE,as the given point satisfies the equation.

What is the standard equation of a circle with a center of (-3,5) and a radius of 2?
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

A circle whose center is located at point (a, b) having a radius of length r has the equation:

(x -a)² + (y -b)² = r²

(x - -3)^2 + (y -5)^2 = 2^2  =

x^2 +6x + 9 + y^2 -10y +25 =4

A boat’s sail is a right triangle. The length of one side of the sail is 7 feet more than the other side. The hypotenuse is 13 f
Svetach [21]

Answer: the other two sides are 5 feet and 12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of one side be x , that means the other side is x + 7

by Pythagoras theorem:

x^{2} + (x+7)^{2} = 13^{2}

expanding , we have:

x^{2} + x^{2}+ 14x + 49 = 169

2x^{2} + 14x + 49 - 169 = 0

2x^{2}  + 14x - 120 = 0

divide through by 2 , we have

x^{2}+ 7x - 60 = 0

By factorizing , we have

(x - 5)(x+12) = 0

Therefore:

x = 5 or x = -12

Since , the side can not be negative , so

x = 5

That means the other side will be 5+ 7 = 12
