y = -5x + 24

y = 4x - 21

Since both of these equations are equal to Y, theyre equal to each other.

So we can make an equation with y = -5x + 24 in one side and y = 4x - 21 on the other.

-5x + 24 = 4x - 21

Now in order to get the value of x we need to isolate it in one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 24 from both sides of the equation:

-5x + 24 - 24 = 4x - 21 - 24

-5x = 4x - 45

Now we subtract 4x from both sides so the 4x shift to the other side

-5x - 4x = 4x - 4x - 45

-9x = -45

Finally divide both sides by -9 so x is by itself

(-9)÷(-9x) = -(45)÷(-9)

x = 5

Since we did all of this to BOTH sides of the equation, both sides are still equal to each other and the equation still is true.

Now apply x = 5 to either of the initial equations to find the value of Y

y = -5x + 24 or y = 4x - 21

(I'll do both but u only need one)

y = -5(5) + 24

y = -25 + 24

y = -1

y = 4(5) - 21

y = 20 - 21

y = -1

Either way, X is 5 and Y is -1

Answer (5, -1)

Gekata [30.6K]

The value of x in the equation (x - 5)² = 25 is 10.

<h3>How to solve an equation?</h3>

(x - 5)² = 25

Take the square root of both sides

Therefore,

√(x - 5)² = √25

x - 5 = 5

add 5 to both sides

x - 5 + 5 = 5 + 5

x = 10

A town has a population of 19000 and grows at 4.5% every year. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long will it be until the pop
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

If the population grows by 4% each year then

the population in any given year is 104% of

the previous year or 1.04 times as much

P(t) = P0(1.04)t

P(t) is population at time t years

P0 = initial population = 11,000

t = number of years = 15

P(15) = 11,000(1.04)15

P(15) = 19,810 people
