Which statement correctly explains how Dana can solve the following system of linear equations for x using the elimination metho

d?
4x+8y=20
-4x+2y= -30
Add the two equations, solve for y, and then substitute –1 for y to find x.
Multiply the bottom equation by –4, solve for y, and then substitute –1 for y to find x.
Multiply the bottom equation by –1, combine the two equations, solve for y, and then substitute 1 for y to find x.

1. The correct statement is the first one, which is: <span>Add the two equations, solve for y, and then substitute –1 for y to find x.
</span>
 2. Therefore, you have the following system of equations:
<span>
 4x+8y=20
 -4x+2y= -30

 3. When you a</span>dd the two equations, and clear the variable "y", you obtain:

 10y=-10
 y=-1

 4. Now, you must substitute -1 for y (y=-1) to find x, as below:

 4x+8y=20
 4x+8(-1)=20
 4x-8=20
 4x=20+8
 4x=28
 x=28/4
 x=7

Find the equation of the line.<br> Use exact numbers.
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the line, every time it moves one unit to the right, it goes down two units. Therefore, the slope is -2. Since the y-intercept is 5, the equation of this line is y = -2x+5.

I hope this helped!

Which representation has a constant of variation of -2.5
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of variation is found using the slope formula:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The given relation is

X : -2 , -3, -4, -5  

Y : -5, -7.5,-10,-12.5

We can use any two ordered pair to find the constant of variation.

Using (-2,-5) and (-3,-7.5), we have

m=\frac{-7.5--5}{-3--2} =\frac{-2.5}{-1} =2.5

The constant of variation is 2.5

We need to repeat this for all the options to identify the one with -2.5 as slope.

unfortunately, you did not provide the remaining options.

Identify this conic section.
BaLLatris [955]
Solve for x or y or 1
solving for y
divide both sides by x
y=25/x
not a line because x has t ohave exponent of 1, this one is y=25x^-1

ok, solve for something else
solve for 1
xy/25=1
this doesn't fit into the standard forms of any of the conic sections
if we were to subsitute points we would see it is a hyperbola that is diagonal with the x and y axises as assemtots

it is a hyperbola
