PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!!!! Jonas used linear combination to solve the system of equations shown. He did so by multiplying the first

equation by –3 and the second equation by another number to eliminate the x-terms. What number did Jonas multiply the second equation by?
4 x - 6y = 2
0.5x + 0.1y = 8.5

This question is worded slightly strangely but I believe I understand it. 
To eliminate x, multiply the second equation by 8, so that it becomes 4x + .8y= 96
Then you can subtract 4x on the top by 4x on the bottom to eliminate it.

What is the point-slope form of a line with slope 3/2 that contains the point (-1 2)
Drupady [299]

Answer:

The point-slope form of this equation is y - 2 = 3/2(x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer to any equation in point slope form, start with the base form of the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Now input the slope for m and the point at (x1, y1)

y - 2 = 3/2(x + 1)

I NEED HELP!!!
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

x= -2, y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. substitute x = 4+2y in the first equation: \begin{bmatrix}2\left(4+2y\right)+y=-7\end{bmatrix}

simplify it : \begin{bmatrix}8+5y=-7\end{bmatrix}

2. isolate y in 8 + 5y = -7 --> 5y = -7 - 8 -->

3. solve for y:  5y = -15 --> y = -15/5 --> y= -3

4. solve for x: x = 4 + 2y

x = 4 + 2(-3)

x = 4 + (-6)

x = -2

9966 [12]
V=(pi)(2r^2)(h)
V=4(pi)(r^2)(h)
V=4(100 aka the old volume)
V=400cm^3
