Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 8y = 12 ......... Equation 1

x - 2y = 0 .............. Equation 2

Make x the subject in equation 2 and substitute it into equation 1

That's

x = 2y

We have

2(2y) + 8y = 12

4y + 8y = 12

12y = 12

Divide both sides by 12

y = 1

Substitute y = 1 into x = 2y

That's

x = 2(1)

x = 2

The answers are

x + y = 7......... Equation 1

2x + y = 5 ......... Equation 2

Make y the subject in equation 1 and substitute it into equation 2

We have

y = x - 7

2x + x - 7 = 5

3x = 7 + 5

3x = 12

Divide both sides by 3

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 into y = x - 7

y = 4 - 7

y = - 3

We have the answers as

y = -1/2 + 1 ......... Equation 1

2x + 3y = 6 ........ Equation 2

From equation 1

y = 1/2

Substitute y = 1/2 into Equation 2

So we have

2x + 3(1/2) = 6

2x + 3/2 = 6

2x = 6 - 3/2

2x = 9/2

Divide both sides by 2

x = 9/4

The answers are

2x - 1/3y = - 9.......... Equation 1

-3x + y = 15 ........... Equation 2

Make y the subject in equation 2 and substitute it into equation 1

That's

y = 15 + 3x

2x - 1/3( 15 + 3x) = - 9

2x - 5 - x = - 9

x = - 9 + 5

x = - 4

Substitute x = - 4 into y = 15 + 3x

That's

y = 15 + 3(-4)

y = 15 - 12

y = 3

Carmen drew line A and line B in the two scatter plots shown. one scatter plot contains 12 points indicating a negative correlat

blondinia [14]

The true statement is that only line A is a well-placed line of best fit

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The scatter plots are not given. However, the question can still be answered

The features of the given lines of best fits are:

Line A

12 points in total
Negative correlation
Passes through the 12 points with 6 on either sides

Line B

12 points in total
Positive correlation
Passes through the 12 points with 8 and 4 in either sides

For a line of best fit to be well-placed, the line must divide the points on the scatter plot equally.

From the given features, we can see that line A can be considered as a good line of best fit, because it divides the points on the scatter plot equally.

What two-dimensional figure will result from slicing this rectangular pyramid parallel to the base?

andreev551 [17]

Answer: The answer is D. Trapezoid.

Step-by-step explanation: As shown in the attached figure, a rectangular pyramid ABCDE is drawn. We are slicing this rectangular pyramid parallel to the base BCDE at the points F, G, H and I.

We can clearly see from the figure that upper half of the sliced figure will be similar to the pyramid BCDE and the lower sliced figure will be a trapezoid. These are the three-dimensional figures.

Also, the sliced two-dimensional figure FGHI will be a rectangle, because

the pyramid is a rectangular one and so, FI=GH, FG=HI and all the angles are right angles.

Thus, the resulting two-dimensional figure will be a rectagle.
