Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3x + 14
2x - 3y = -14
So, what is the substitution? Y of course, this is because y is equal to 3x + 14.
2x - 3 (3x + 14) = -14
Multiply 3 with the numbers in the parentheses.
2x - 9x + 42 = -14
So you maybe be wondering why it is a negative 7 instead of subtracting 9 with 2. Using PEMDAS, we always read from left to right. So it is basically 2 -9 and you get -7.
-7x + 42 = -14
Then subtract 42 from both sides.
-7x + 42 - 42 = -14 - 42
Simplify
-7x = -56
Divide 7 by both sides.
-7x / 7 = -56 / 7
x = -8
And you might ask, why we get x instead afterwards. This is because both -7 and 7 cancel each other out leaving us with x.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When working with 45-45-90 triangles the hypotenuse is the same as the other legs multiplied by root 2. Therefore if you need to find the legs and already have the hypotenuse, divide the hypotenuse by root 2.
10/ sqrt(2) = 7.1 is the rounded answer.
to double check your work just multiply 7.1 by the square root of 2 and you'll get <em>close</em> to 10. (because the answer is rounded and not exact.)
Hi there!

Find the midpoint using the midpoint formula:
m = (p1 + p2) / 2
m = (-2 + 12) / 2
m = 10 / 2
m = 5.
3.86

First you want to change the fractions to the same denominator
3/4 = 9/12 and 2/3 = 8/12
then you put it in ratio form...
the answer is 9:8
