So we have the equations:
y - 4x = 2 --- equation 1
5y - 2x = 1 --- equation 2
(equation 2) * 2
10y - 4x = 2 --- equation 3
(equation 2) - (equation 3)
-9y = 0 so y= 0 and thus x = -1/2
Hope that helps!
In this item, we are to determine the equation that would allow us to express the given. If x is the number of barrels of water and y is weight, the points are:
(10, 98.4) and (20, 181.8)
To determine the equation of the line, we use,
y - y₁ = ((y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁))(x - x₁)
Substituting,
y - 98.4 = ((181.8 - 98.4)/ (20 - 10))(x - 10)
Simplifying,
y = 8.27x + 88.4
Answer:
The square root of -9 cannot be -3 because -3 squared or -3 times -3 equals 9 not -9.
Hope this helps!
10 time the value of the digits to the right.
15.38. 7, the number in the hundredths place, is turned into 8 due to the following digit, 5. Since it is equal to the minimum, 5, the previous number is rounded up.
