What is the y value in the solution to this system of linear equations?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Travka [436]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The y-value is -20

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's solve this by Elimination method;

-2(4x + 5y = -12)

4(2x + 3y = -16)

Let's Distribute;

-8x - 10y = 24

8x + 12y = -64

So x cancels out because -8 + 8 = 0

-10y + 12y = 2y

24 - 64 = -40

2y = -40

Divide both sides by 2;

y = -20

Now lets plug in y to find the value of x;

4x + 5(-20) = -12

4x - 100 = -12

Add 100 to both sides;

4x = 88

Divide both sides by 4;

x = 22

Rewrite the equation C = 3.59q + 54,293 as a function of q.
MAVERICK [17]

The equation, when rewritten would be written as:    

q = ( c - 54293 ) / 3.59

<h3>How to rewrite the equation in order to make q the subject</h3>

C = 3.59q + 54,293

We have the equation above, what we would have to do now would be to write the equation in such a way that q would be the subject of the formula.

This would be

3.59q = C -  54,293

Next we have to divide through by the value of q

q = \frac{C - 54293 }{3.59}

Whats another way to write 300 70 5/10 8/100?
Triss [41]
I do not think we need to rewrite the first two numbers in the given above because they are already the simplest forms of themselves being whole numbers. However, the third number may be rewritten as 1/2 by dividing both numerator and denominator by 5 and the last one as 2/25 by dividing both numerator and denominator by 4.

Help this is really hard
Agata [3.3K]

(2^8 *3^-5* 6^0)^-2 * ((3^-2)/(2^3))^4 * 2^28

anything to the 0 power is 1

(2^8 *3^-5* 1)^-2 * ((3^-2)/(2^3))^4 * 2^28

using the power of power property to take the power inside

(2^(8*-2) *3^(-5* -2) * (3^-2*4)/(2^3*4) * 2^28

simplify

2^ -16 * 3^10 * 3^-8 /2*12   * 2^28

get rid of the division by making the exponent negative

2^-16 * 3^10 * 3^-8 *2*-12   * 2^28

combine exponents with like bases

2^(-16-12+28) * 3^(10-8)

2^(0) *3^2

anything to the 0 power is 1

A person invests 10000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 4.5% interest compounded
Greeley [361]

The person would have to leave the money in the bank for 7.8 years for it to reach 13,500 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; First we must calculate how much interest is generated for a single year. The annual interest rate is 4.5% i.e. 4.5% of 10,000 dollars which equals 0.045 × 10,000 = 450 dollars a year. As the years pass, more and more will be put into the account due to interest.

Step 2; For there to be 13,500 dollars in the bank account we need to calculate how much money is added due to interest.

The money needed to be added through interest = 13,500 - 10,000 = 3,500 dollars.

So we need to determine how long it will take for the bank to add 3,500 dollars by adding 450 dollars a year.

The number of years to reach 13,500 dollars = \frac{3,500}{450} = 7.777 years. By rounding this value to the nearest tenth, we get 7.8 years.

Bob’s monthly phone bill is made up of a $10 fee plus $0.05 per minute. Bob’s phone bill for July was $22. Write an equation to
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

equation: 10 + 0.05x=22

Step-by-step explanation:

the next step after writing the equation would be to subtract 10 from both sides to get 0.05x=12. after this you would then have to divide 12 by 0.05 to get 240 minutes. you could check it by putting 240 in for x to get 10+0.05(240)=22. you would then multiply 0.05 by 240 to get 12 and then add 10 onto it to get 22 which was already given.
