Answer:

(2, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the two equations to solve.  The x-values are cancelled out.  Solve for y.

<em>    y = -2x - 4</em>

<u><em>+  y = 2x - 12</em></u>

<em> 2y = -16</em>

y = -8

Now, plug in the y-value into one of the equations to solve for x.

<em>y = 2x - 12</em>

<em>-8 = 2x - 12</em>

<em>(-8) + 12 = (2x - 12) + 12</em>

<em>4 = 2x</em>

<em>(4)/2 = (2x)/2</em>

x = 2

The solution is (2, -8).

Answer:

x=2, y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-2x-4

y=2x-12

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

Subtract the two equations

y=-2x-4

-y=-2x+12

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

0 = -4x +8

Subtract 8 from each side

-8 = -4x+8-8

-8 = -4x

Divide by -4

-8/-8 = -4x/-4

2 =x

Then solve for y

y = -2x-4

y = -2(2) -4

y = -4-4

y = -8

What is the dollar value of 7 nickels and 8 quarters
victus00 [196]

Answer:

$2.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Nickels are worth 5 cents each and quarters are worth 25 cents.

7 nickels = 7 * 5 cents = 35 cents

8 quarters = 8 * 25 cents = 200 cents

Total = 200 + 35 = 235 cents

There are 100 cents per dollar, so we can find the dollar value by:

235/100 = $2.35

Compare the two ratios is 6 : 15 less than 30 : 80 or greater than?
romanna [79]

Work:
6/15 = x/1
To get from 15 to 1, you have to divide by 15. So, to make an equal field, divide 6 by 15.

6 : 15 is the same as 2 : 5 or 0.4.

30/80 = x/1
To get from 80 to 1, you have to divide by 80. So, to make an equal field, divide 30 by 80.

30 : 80 is the same as 3 : 8 or .875.


Comparing the two, 30 : 80 is greater than 6 : 15.


Hope this helps. Have a good day.

Find all solutions in the interval [0, 2π). tan x + sec x = 1
svp [43]
Use the identity 
sec^2x = 1 + tan^2 x
- so sec x = sqrt(1 + tan^2 x) then:-
tan x + sqrt( 1 + tan^2 x) = 1
sqrt ( 1 + tan^2 x) = 1 - tan x
1 + tan^2 x  = 1 + tan^2x - 2 tan x
0 = -2 tanx 

tan x = 0 

x =  0, π 
π is an extraneous root because sec 180 = -1 
So the answer  is 0 degrees
