Plot the intercepts:

y=-1

x=?

to find the x intercept, you dont solve the equation as it is solved in the slope-intercept form. instead, you simply plug in 0 for y:

0=1/4x-4

0=1/4x-4+4

4=1/4x

4/1/4=1/4x

1/4=0.25

x=16

revise:

y=(0, -1)

x=(16,0)

graph the slope for y=-1/2x-1: start from say point (0,-1)

graph the slope for y=1/4x-4: start from say point (16,0) ; you can just ise the intercept (0,-4) since the graph is diluted small...anyways

the points intersect at (4, -3) so thats the solution to the equations

NOTE: when graphing slopes that are negative either the numerator or the denominator can be graphed negative. so I graphed the first equation with the numerator as the positive and the denominator as the negative : rise= 1 ; run: -2. once i got to the end of the provided graph i started from the -1 y-intercept again and graphed the equation using: rise=-1; run=2

*graphing messes me up, too*

Answer:

3 3/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion a mixed number 8 1/2

to a improper fraction: 8 1/2=8×2+1/2=16+1/2=17/2

To find a new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 2 by the denominator 3. Whole number 2 equally 2×3/3= 6/

b) Add the answer from previous step 6 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 6 + 2 = 8

c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 8) over the denominator 3.

Two and two thirds is eight thirds

Divide: 17/2×8/3=17/2×3/8=17×3/2×8= 51/

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 8/3 is 3/8) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - seventeen halves divided by eight thirds = fifty-one sixteenths.

Two more than a number is less than 14. 2 + n less-than-or-equal-to 14 2 + n less-than 14 2 + n greater-than-or-equal-to 14 2 +

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

x+2 < 14 | -2

x < 12

2+n <= 14 | -2

n <= 12

2+n < 14 | -2

n < 14

2+n >= 14 | -2

n >= 12

2+n > 14 | -2

n > 14

Solve.<br><br> 5x-2y<10<br> I give Brainliest!

Anestetic [448]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

This is impossible to solve.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

For an equation or inequality to be solvable, there must be the same number of inequalities as variables. Here, there is an x and there is a y. This means that you need at least two inequalities to solve it.

You can, however, rearrange to get x or y on one side.

This can be done for x:

5x < 10 + 2y

x < 2 + 2/5y

Or it can be done for y:

5x < 10 + 2y

5x - 10 < 2y

2.5x - 5 < y

Please help! :) Need answer fast!

Vlada [557]

Answer:

x = 3

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

When 2 triangles are congruent, they will have exact same 3 sides length and exact same 3 angles measure.

So we can say:

-2x + 6y = 6

and

-7x + 8y = -5

Let's multiply first equation by 7 and 2nd equation by -2, to get:

7 [-2x + 6y = 6] = -14x +42y = 42

and

-2 [-7x + 8y = -5] = 14x - 16y = 10

Now adding these 2 new equations and solving for y:

-14x +42y = 42

14x - 16y = 10

----------------------

26y = 52

y = 52/26

y = 2

Now we put y = 2 into 1st equation (or any other) and solve for x:

-2x + 6y = 6

-2x + 6(2) = 6

-2x + 12 = 6

6 = 2x

x = 6/2

x = 3
