Answer:
x=-14
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(x-8)+4x= -12
-2x+16+4x=-12
2x=-28
x=-14
Answer:
There are no solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the lines are parallel, they will never meet, meaning there are no solutions to this system of equations
Answer:
Infinite amount of solutions.
General Formulas and Concepts:
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Regular + Equality Properties
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>
6y + 4 - 3y - 7 = 3(y - 1)
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Combine like terms: 3y - 3 = 3(y - 1)
- Distribute 3: 3y - 3 = 3y - 3
- Subtract 3y on both sides: -3 = -3
Here we see that there will be infinite amount of solutions. We can plug in any number <em>y</em> and it will render the equation true.
Answer:
x = 4/3
y = 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
System of equations! This is set up really well to make the second equation equal x then substitute.
x - y = 1
x = 1 + y
and then our substitution:
2 (1+y) + y = 3
and solve:
2 + 2y + y = 3
3y + 2 = 3
3y = 1
y = 1/3
And now we can substitute that value into one of our equations:
x - (1/3) = 1
x = 4/3
Next we should check by substituting these values into both of our equations:
2 (4/3) + (1/3) = 3
9 / 3 does equal 3 !
(4/3) - (1/3) does equal 1 !
Therefore, x = 4/3 , and y = 1/3
Lets use a rectangle as the example because I dont know what kind of shape you're looking for.
Area of a rectangle = length * width
Length (l) = 62
Width (w) = x
Area = 744
744 = 62 * x
Divide both sides by 62
744/62 = 12
12 = x
That means the width would equal 12
12 * 62 = 744
