Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x + 5y = 8

Let x=-14

-2(-14) +5y = 8

28 +5y = 8

Subtract 28 from each side

28-28 +5y = 8-28

5y = -20

Divide by 5

5y/5 = -20/5

y = -4

At noon Joyce drove to the lake at 30 miles per hour. but she made the long walk back home at 4 miles per hour. How long did she

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

let d = distance to the lake

Using: time = distance ÷ speed

Create expressions for the time it takes for each journey:

Drive: $t_1=\dfrac{d}{30}$

Walk: $t_2=\dfrac{d}{4}$

If total time = 17 hours

$\implies t_1+t_2=17$

$\implies \dfrac{d}{30}+\dfrac{d}{4}=17$

$\implies \dfrac{17d}{60}=17$

$\implies 17d=1020$

$\implies d=\dfrac{1020}{17}$

$\implies d=60$

Therefore she walked 60 miles

alukav5142 [94]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

5 x^3 + 15 x^2 + 15 x + 5 , none of the provided choices

Discussion:

f(x) = 5 x^3

g(x) = x+ 1

(f•g)(x) =

f(g(x)) =

f(x+1) =

5 * (x+1)^3 =

5 x^3 + 15 x^2 + 15 x + 5

which is none of the provided answers.

Thank you,
