Substitute the value of y given by the second equation into the first.
.. 3x -5(-7) = 17
.. 3x +35 = 17
.. 3x = -18
.. x = -6

The solution is (x, y) = (-6, -7).

Two skaters are practicing at the same time on the same rink. A coordinate grid is superimposed on the ice. One skater follows t
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The skaters will collide at the points;

(2,28) and (4,24)

Step-by-step explanation:

The points they might collide will be the points when both y are equal;

-2x + 32 = -2x^2 + 18x

2x^2 -18x -2x + 32 = 0

2x^2 -20x + 32 = 0

2x^2 - 16x - 4x + 32 = 0

2x(x -8) -4( x -8) = 0

(2x -4)(x -8) = 0

2x = 4 or x = 8

x = 4/2 or x = 8

hence; x = 2 or 8

Now let’s get the y value

at x = 2, just substitute into any of the 2

y = -2x + 32

y = -2(2) + 32

y = -4 + 32 = 28

at x = 4

y = -2(4) + 32

y = -8 + 32

y = 24

The points that they will collide are;

(2,28) and (4,24)

A bucket is leaking. After 3 hours the bucket has leaked 3/4 of an ounce. How many ounces per hour is the bucket leaking?
Bogdan [553]
The bucket leaks 1/4 ounce per hour. Because the numerator is 3 and it took 3 hours, you can give 1/4 to every hour (3/4 divided by 3).
