\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average\ rate\\
of\ change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
f(x)= \cfrac{1}{x}  \qquad 
\begin{cases}
x_1=2\\
x_2=b
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(b)-f(2)}{b-2}=-\cfrac{1}{10}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\frac{1}{b}-\frac{1}{2}}{b-2}=-\cfrac{1}{10}\implies 
\cfrac{\frac{2-b}{2b}}{b-2}=-\cfrac{1}{10}\implies \cfrac{2-b}{2b}=-\cfrac{b-2}{10}
\\\\\\


\bf \cfrac{2-b}{2b}=\cfrac{2-b}{10}\implies 20-10b=4b-2b^2\impliedby cross-multiplying
\\\\\\
2b^2-4b-10b+20=0\implies 2b^2-14b+20=0
\\\\\\
b^2-7b+10=0\implies 
(b-2)(b-5)=0\implies b=
\begin{cases}
\boxed{5}\\
2
\end{cases}

Solve the system of equations. If the system has no solution, say that it is inconsistent. Graph the lines of the system.
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

The solution to the system of the equations will be:

x=3,\:y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of the equations

x+y=4

x-y=2

solving the system of the equations

\begin{bmatrix}x+y=4\\ x-y=2\end{bmatrix}

x-y=2

-

\underline{x+y=4}

-2y=-2

solving

-2y=-2

Divide both sides by -2

\frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{-2}{-2}

y=1

\mathrm{For\:}x+y=4\mathrm{\:plug\:in\:}y=1

x+1=4

x=3

Therefore, the solution to the system of the equations will be:

x=3,\:y=1

Add the two equations, 0.75x+1.5y=40 and −1.5x−1.5y=−60 , to find the value of x .
sergij07 [2.7K]

The value of x in the equation is 26.7

<h3>How to solve an equation?</h3>

0.75x + 1.5y = 40

−1.5x − 1.5y = −60

add both equation to eliminate y .

Therefore,

−1.5x + 0.75x = -0.75x

1.5y + (- 1.5y) = 0

40 + (-60) = -20

Hence,

-0.75x  = - 20

divide both sides by -0.75

-0.75x / -0/75 = - 20 / -0.75

x = - 20 / -0.75

x = 26.6666666667

x = 26.7
