Solve by elimination 5x-14y=22 -6x+7y=3

1 answer:

3 0

5x - 14y = 22 ⇒ 5x - 14y = 22
-6x + 7y = 3 ⇒ 12x - 14y = -6
 -7x = 28
 -7 -7
 x = -4
 5x - 14y = 22
 5(-4) - 14y = 22
 -20 - 14y = 22
 + 20 + 20
 -14y = 42
 -14 -14
 y = -3
 (x, y) = (-4, -3)

ankoles [38]

Distance from home to store = 4 * 0.5 = 2 miles.
Time taken to return home = (2/12) * 60 =10 minutes.
Total distance traveled = 2 * 2 = 4 miles.
Total time taken = 30 + 10 = 40 minutes.
Average speed for entire trip = total distance / total time in hours.
$Average\ speed=\frac{4}{\frac{40}{60}}=\frac{4\times60}{60}=6\ mph$

Joey wants to build a rectangular garden. He plans to use a side of a river for one side of the garden, he will not place fencin

jonny [76]

We let x and y be the measures of the sides of the rectangular garden. The perimeter subtracted with the other side should be equal to 92.

2x + y = 92

The value of y in terms of x is equal to,

y = 92 – 2x

The area is the product of the two sides,

A = xy

Substituting,

A = x (92 – 2x) = 92x – 2x2

Solving for the derivative and equating to zero,

0 = 92 – 4x ; x = 23

Therefore, the area of the garden is,

A = 23(92 – 2(23)) = 1058 yard2

Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Part 40) $y=-2x+9$

Part 41) $y=5x+6$

Part 42) $y=\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

Part 40) Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point

and is parallel to the given line

we have

Point (4,1)

Given line y=-2x+7

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

The given line is a equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

The slope of the given line is

$m=-2$

step 2

Find the y-intercept b

we have

$m=-2$

$(4,1)$

substitute in the linear equation

$1=(-2)4+b$

solve for b

$b=1+8$

$b=9$

step 3

Find equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line

we have

$m=-2$

$b=9$

substitute

The equation of the line is

$y=-2x+9$

Part 41) Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point

and is parallel to the given line

we have

Point (0,6)

Given line y=5x-3

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

The given line is a equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

The slope of the given line is

$m=5$

step 2

Find the y-intercept b

$b=6$ ----> because the y-intercept is the point (0,6) (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

step 3

Find equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line

we have

$m=5$

$b=6$

substitute in the linear equation

$y=5x+6$

Part 42) Write an equation of the line that passes through the given point

and is parallel to the given line

we have

Point (-5,-2)

Given line y=(2/3)x+1

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

The given line is a equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

The slope of the given line is

$m=\frac{2}{3}$

step 2

Find the y-intercept b

we have

$m=\frac{2}{3}$

$(-5,-2)$

substitute in the linear equation

$-2=(\frac{2}{3})(-5)+b$

solve for b

$-2=-\frac{10}{3}+b$

$b=-2+\frac{10}{3}$

$b=\frac{4}{3}$

step 3

Find equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the given line

we have

$m=\frac{2}{3}$

$b=\frac{4}{3}$

substitute

The equation of the line is

$y=\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{4}{3}$
