Answer:
$450,000.
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>100% - 38% = 62% of the previous house value is the current house value after the 38% decrease.</h3><h3>We'll first convert 62% to a decimal by dividing by 100.</h3>
62% = 62 / 100 = 0.62
<h2>0.62x = 279,000</h2><h3>Multiply by (100/62) on each side.</h3><h2>x = 450,000</h2><h2>The house value when it was purchased was $450,000.</h2>
8^2 + b^2 = 24^2
64 + b^2 = 576
-64 -64
b^2 = 512
Take the square root from b^2 and 512 =
b = 22.627
Answer 22.63 (rounded up)
3.7 x 10^3
Your not allow to have a number greater than 10 or less then 0. So, putting the decimal point in between 3 and 7 would be the correct answer. SO how many times did you move the decimal?
1)
3x-2y=14
y=5x
So we plug in y=5x into 3x-2y=14
We get:
3x-2(5x)=14
3x -10x=14
-7x=14
x=-2
So we found x, now we need to find y. We can simply plug in x into the equation and get y.
y=5x
y=5(-2)
y=-10
So your answer will be (-2,-10).
2)
x-2y= -2
y= 2x+4
Once again plug in y=2x+4 into x-2y=-2
x-2(2x+4) = -2
x-4x-8=-2
-3x-8=-2
-3x = 6
x= -2
Now we plug back in x and solve for y :)
y=2x+4
y=2(-2)+4
y=-4+4
y=0
So our solution would be (-2,0).
3)
x+2y=-7
x-5y=7
Multiply the second equation by -1
-x+5y=-7
Now add that equation with the other one:
x+2y=-7
+
-x+5y=-7
-----------------
7y=-14
y=-2
Now plug in y=-2 and solve for x
x+2y=-7
x+2(-2)=-7
x+(-4)=-7
x-4=-7
x=-3
So your solution would be (-3,-2).
