Complete the missing value in the solution to the equation.<br> y=-2x+4<br> y=-2
anygoal [31]

Answer:

X=3,y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simultaneous equation question and we will have to solve using substitution method

So let's solve

y=-2x+4...(1)

y=-2....(2)

Let's substitute (2) into (1)

-2=-2x+4

Substrate 4 from both sides

-6=-2x

Divide both sides by-2

x=3

Substitute the value of x in (1)

y=-2(3)+4

y=-6+4

y=-2

Therefore x is 3,y is -2

The height of a rectangular prism is 3 feet. The length and width can be expressed as x-1 and x+4. If the volume of the prism is
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume  = 198 ft

length * width * height = 198

(x - 1) * (x + 4) * 3 = 198

(x - 1) * (x + 4)  = 198/3

(x - 1) * (x + 4) = 66

x*x + x*4 -1*x - 1*4 = 66   {Use FOIL method to multiply}

x² + 4x - x - 4 = 66

x² + 3x - 4 =66

x² + 3x - 4 - 66 = 0

x² + 3x - 70 = 0

Now factorize.

x² + 10x - 7x - 7*10 = 0

x(x +10) - 7(x + 10 ) = 0

(x + 10)(x - 7) = 0

x - 7 = 0 {x + 10 is ignored because measurement cannot be in negative}

x = 7

length = x - 1 = 7 - 1 = 6ft

Width = x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11 ft
