Answer:

The solution is x=4.75  and   y = -22

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solution to the system of equations, we will follow the steps below:

3.2x + 0.5y = 4.2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------(1)

-1.6x -0.5y = 3.4 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------(2)

add equation (1) and equation (2)

1.6x =7.6

Divide both-side of the equation by 1.6 to get the value of x

1.6x /1.6 =7.6/1.6

x =4.75

substitute x = 4.75 into equation (1) and solve for y

3.2(4.75) + 0.5y = 4.2

15.2 + 0.5y = 4.2

subtract 15.2 from both-side of the equation

15.2 - 15.2 + 0.5y = 4.2-15.2

0.5y = -11

Divide both-side of the equation by 0.5

0.5y/0.5 = -11/0.5

y = -22

The solution is x=4.75  and   y = -22

Answer:

  -3, 1, 4 are the x-intercepts

Step-by-step explanation:

The remainder theorem tells you that dividing a polynomial f(x) by (x-a) will result in a remainder that is the value of f(a). That remainder will be zero when (x-a) is a factor of f(x).

In terms of finding x-intercepts, this means we can reduce the degree of the polynomial by factoring out the factor (x-a) we found when we find a value of "a" that makes f(a) = 0.

__

For the given polynomial, we notice that the sum of the coefficients is zero:

  1 -2 -11 +12 = 0

This means that x=1 is a zero of the polynomial, and we have found the first x-intercept point we can plot on the given number line.

Using synthetic division to find the quotient (and remainder) from division by (x-1), we see that ...

  f(x) = (x -1)(x² -x -12)

We know a couple of factors of 12 that differ by 1 are 3 and 4, so we suspect the quadratic factor above can be factored to give ...

  f(x) = (x -1)(x -4)(x +3)

Synthetic division confirms that the remainder from division by (x -4) is zero, so x=4 is another x-intercept. The result of the synthetic division confirms that x=-3 is the remaining x-intercept.

The x-intercepts of f(x) are -3, 1, 4. These are the points you want to plot on your number line.

(0.4y - 3)/(1.5y + 9) = -7/5
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

y = -3.84.

Step-by-step explanation:

(0.4y - 3)/(1.5y + 9) = -7/5

Cross multiply:

2y - 15 = -10.5y - 63

12.5y =  -48

y = -3.84
