5x - y = 3 ------------ (1)
6x - y = 8 ------------ (2)

From (1):
5x - y = 3
y = 5x - 3 ------------ Sub into (2)

6x - (5x - 3) = 8
6x - 5x + 3 = 8
x + 3 = 8
x = 5 ------------------- Sub into (1)

5x - y = 3
5(5) - y = 3
25 - y = 3
y = 25 - 3
y = 22

---------------------------------
Ans: x = 5, y = 22
---------------------------------

Write the equation in exponential form using the two points (0,1) and (1,3)

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

$y=3^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the function in exponential form is

$y=a\cdot b^x$

The function is determined using points (0,1) and (1,3), so their coordinates satisfy the eduation. Substitute them:

$1=a\cdot b^0\Rightarrow a=1\ \ [b^0=1]\\ \\3=a\cdot b^1\Rightarrow 1\cdot b=3,\ b=3$

Thus, the equation of the function is

$y=3^x$

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The answer is B. 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

ABC is a right triangle

AB and BC are the legs and AC is the hypotenuse.

The Pythagorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2 can be manipulated to solve for a and get 12.

Answer:

The answer is $\frac{2}{3}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is supposed to be $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ or $\frac{y1-y2}{x1-x2}$ , and if you do the math, the slope should be easy to solve.
