Is the ordered pair a solution to the system of linear equations?

1 answer:

5 0

<span>-7x + 2y = 0
6x + 6y = 0
</span><span>ordered pair: (−2,2)

the way to figure out if that ordered pair is a solution is pretty simple, you just plug the ordered pair into both equations, and check if the outcome is true.

</span>-7(-2) + 2(2) = 0
14 + 4 = 0
18 = 0 is NOT true, so this isn't a solution. still, check your second equation as well.

6x + 6y = 0
6(-2) + 6(2) = 0
-12 + 12 = 0

for this equation, it is a solution. however, because the solution must apply to the system as a whole, and not just one of the equations, the ordered pair still is not a solution.

B would be the least wise...loans have interest which means that when you get around to paying them back you owe more than you borrowed and you can get yourself into even deeper debt. Hope this helps, and if you are able to do so, please mark Brainliest! Thanks!

alicia and her friends Brittany, Kenji and Ellis are taking a pottery class. The four friends have to share 3 blocks of clay. Ho

You need to divide the 3 blocks of clay by the 4 friends. 3 goes in the dividend and the 4 is outside. 3 divided by 4 is equal to 0.75 or 3/4, so each friend gets 0.75 or 3/4 clay

Which of the functions below could have created this graph?

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two facts need to guide your answer.

One

The highest power is odd: you know this because an even power would start on the left come down do it's squiggles if had any and wind up on the right going up.

This graph comes down on the left does it's squiggles and then goes further down on the right. That's the behavior of something whose highest power is odd.

Two

The leading coefficient, the number in front of the highest power must be minus. If it was positive as in y = x^3 the graph would be the mirror image of what it is.

Argument

B and D cannot be true. The highest power is even.

C is false because the leading coefficient is + 1.

So that leave A which is the answer.
