Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To start with, we can solve for y in 4x + 2y = 6. We want to find the y so we can insert it into our second equation to find out what our x-variable is.

We are going to want to get y by itself, so we can subtract the positive 4x and move it onto the right side.

4x + 2y = 6

2y + 4x - 4x = 6 - 4x

2y = 6 - 4x

2y = -4x + 6

Now that we have this, we still want to get y by itself. Y has a coefficient in front of it, so we are going to want to get rid of that. Because y is being multiplied by 2, we can do the opposite and divide the entire equation by 2. The 2y would be divided by 2, the -4x would be divided by 2, and the 6 would be divided by 2.

This leaves us with: y = -2x + 3.

Now that we know what our y is equal to, we can insert this into our second equation of x - y = 3.

x - y = 3

Let's replace y with what we now know y is equivalent to: -2x + 3.

x - (-2x) + 3.

Subtracting a negative number is equivalent to addition, so we can turn that into an addition sign now:

x + 2x + 3

3x + 3 = 0

Remembering the question, we want to get the x variable alone because that is what we want to solve for. Let's do that now by moving the 3 onto the right side. Since we are adding it, we can subtract it to move it over. Like this:

3x + 3 = 0

3x + 3 - 3 = 0 - 3

3x = -3

Now, like we did in the beginning of this problem, we want the x alone, and because it is being multiplied by x, we can divide the entire problem by 3. -3 will get divided by 3 which will give us -1.

x = -1

Find the length of each segment. SEE EXAMPLES 1 AND 2
wlad13 [49]

The lengths of the line segments are summarized in the following list:

  1. DF = 3
  2. DE = 8 / 3
  3. FG = 3
  4. FH = 9 / 2
  5. GH = 3 / 2
  6. EH = - 11 / 6
<h3>How to calculate the length of a line segment based on point set on a number line</h3>

Herein we have a number line with five points whose locations are known.  The length of each line segment is equal to the arithmetical difference of the coordinates of the rightmost point and the leftmost point:

DF = - 1 - (- 4)

DF = 3

DE = (- 1 - 1 / 3) - (- 4)

DE = 3 - 1 / 3

DE = 8 / 3

FG = 2 - (- 1)

FG = 3

FH = (3 + 1 / 2) - (- 1)

FH = 4 + 1 / 2

FH = 9 / 2

GH = (3 + 1 / 2) - 2

GH = 1 + 1 / 2

GH = 3 / 2

EH = (3 + 1 / 2) + (- 1 - 1 / 3)

EH = - 2 + (1 / 2 - 1 / 3)

EH = - 2 + 1 / 6

EH = - 11 / 6

yarga [219]

Answer:

(x-5)^2+(y-2)^2=9\\

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you basically want the equation of the circle.

Given:

Center(C): C(5, 2)

r=3

The equation of circle is:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2\\

Where, (h, k) represents the center point and r is the radius of the circle.

Plotting the values in the equation:

(x-5)^2+(y-2)^2=3^2\\

(x-5)^2+(y-2)^2=9\\

This is the equation of the circle of center (5, 2) and radius 3.

Which inequality is equivalent to the statement below?
Goryan [66]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite of a number is simply the number multiplied by -1 so the opposite of n is -n. "Between -3 and 0" tells us that the inequality is -3 < -n < 0.
