Solve your system of equations step by step.

x−2y=14;x+3y=9

Solve x−2y=14 for x:

x−2y+2y=14+2y (Add 2y to both sides)

x=2y+14

Substitute (2y+14) for x in x+3y=9:

x+3y=9

2y+14+3y=9

5y+14=9(Simplify both sides of the equation)

5y+14+−14=9+−14 (Add -14 to both sides)

5y=−5

5y5=−55 (Divide both sides by 5)

y=−1

Substitute (−1) for y in x=2y+14:

x=2y+14

x=(2)(−1)+14

x=12(Simplify both sides of the equation)



So,

y=-1
x=12

Answer is C)

A company’s board of directors wants to form a committee of 3 of its members. There are 4 members to choose from. How many diffe
Ugo [173]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 board members and 3 committee members. You can solve this using combinations:

4C3 = 4!/(3!(4-3)!) = 4!/(3!1!) = 4

You can also solve this by recognizing that since there is one fewer committee spot than there are board members, there will be one possible committee excluding each of the 4 board members.

The equation of line CD is y = −2x − 2. Write an equation of a line parallel to line CD in slope-intercept form that contains po
Mkey [24]
Y = -2x - 2...the slope here is -2. A parallel line will have the same slope.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(4,5)...x = 4 and y = 5
now we sub and find b, the y int
5 = -2(4) + b
5 = -8 + b
5 + 8 = b
13 = b

so ur parallel equation is : y = 2x + 13
