    2x+3y=5
-3x+2y=-14




3( 2x+3y=5)
  2 (-3x+2y=-14)
--------------------
   13y=-13        ⇒y=-13/13=-1


  2( 2x+3y=5)
-3(-3x+2y=-14)
---------------------
13x  = 52      ⇒x=52/13=4

Answer: x=4; y=-1

To check:
2x+3y=5
2*4+3*(-1)=8-3=5

-3x+2y=-14
-3*4+2*-1=-12-2=-14

What is the equation of the linear function represented by the table?
dsp73

Answer:

y = -3x+17

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the change in y corresponding to the change in x. In this case x is changing by +3 and y is changing by -3. That is your m in y=mx=b.

2. y= -3x + b

To find b substitute a set into the equation. I used 4 and 5.

5= -3(4) +b

3. 5= -12 +b ,add  12 to both sides.

17= b

4. y = -3x+17

The tape diagram represents the ratio of the time you spend tutoring to the time your friend spends tutoring. You tutor for 3 ho
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

By a quick online search, i found two tape diagrams:

13) You: -

     Friend: - -

So you have one block, and your friend has two.

We know that you work for 3 hours, this means that your only block must represent 3 hours.

And all the blocks represent the same amount of time, then each one of the two blocks of your friend also represents 3 hours.

Then in total, he tutored for 3 hours + 3 hours = 6 hours.

14) You: -

     Friend: - - - - -

In this case, you still have only one block, but now your friend has 5.

Using the same reasoning as above, we can conclude that each block represents 3 hours, and your friend has 5 of them, this means that he tutored for:

5*3 hours = 15 hours

A square has a side length of x inches. Each side of the square will be increased by 8 inches to create a larger square. If the
Norma-Jean [14]
X = 2

A square has 4 sides. To get the perimeter of a square, you could multiply the length of one side by 4.

One side of the larger triangle is x inches plus an additional 8 inches, which can be written as (x+8)

To get the perimeter of the larger square, multiply the expression (x+8) by 4. The question states the larger square’s perimeter is 40 inches.

You end up with this equation: 4(x + 8) = 40

To solve first distribution 4 into (x + 8).
4x + 32 = 40 | subtract 32 from both sides
4x = 8 | divide each side by 4
x = 2 inches

So the side length of the original square is 2 inches. To check your work, go back and plug x = 2 into the original equation. 8 in + 2 in = 10 inches, and 10 inches x 4 = 40 inches, so x = 2 is the solution
