First of all, x>y
x-y=40
and
x+y=66
add them equations together to eliminate

x-y=40
<u>x+y=66 +</u>
2x+0y=106

2x=106
divide by 2
x=53

sub back
x-y=40
53-y=40
minus 53 both sides
-y=-13
y=13


the numbers are 53 and 13

Which of the following values would complete the ordered pair if the point is on the graph of f (x) = -3x + 2 ?
Scrat [10]

Answer: the y-coordinate that completes the point is 5.


Explanation:


An ordered pair (x, y) indicates the x-and-y coordinates of a general point, where x is the input value of a function and y is the output value.


The output value is y = f(x) and must be found applying the rule (function) to the given input value.


In this case the rulte is f(x) = - 3x + 2, and the input value, x,  is - 1 (the first value of the ordered pair).


This is the mathematical procedure:

  • x = - 1
  • f(x) = f (-1) = -3 (-1) + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5.
