Answer:

A. -4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-value in the solution to this system of linear equation, we will follow the steps below:

4x + 5y = −12 ------------------------------------------------------(1)

-2x + 3y = −16 -----------------------------------------------------(2)

Multiply through equation (1) by 2 and multiply through equation (2) by 4 to make the x coefficient have equal value

8x + 10y = -24 ---------------------------------------------------(3)

-8x + 12y = -64 ---------------------------------------------------(4)

Add equation (1) and equation (2)

22y = -88

Divide both-side of the equation by 22

22y/ 22 = -88/ 22

y =-4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

4x + 5y = - 12 → (1)

- 2x + 3y = - 16 → (2)

Eliminate the x- term by multiplying (2) by 2 and adding the result to (1)

- 4x + 6y = - 32 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term

11y = - 44 ( divide both sides by 11 )

y = - 4

Indicate a general rule for the nth term of the sequence a1 = 2 and r = √3.

pantera1 [17]

It is given in the question that,

$a_{1} = 2, r = \sqrt 3$

Since we have the value of r given, so we have to use the formula to find the nth term of the geometric progression, which is

$a_{n} = a(r)^{n-1}$

Substituting the values of a and r, we will get

$a_{n} = 2( \sqrt 3)^{n-1}$

So the correct option is the third option .

Which of the following equations best represents the graph of a function f(m)?

Inessa [10]

Answer: y = f(m)

Justification:

By definition, the graph of a function in the cartesian coordinate plane is the plot of the curve that join all the points that satisfy the equation of the function.

In the cartesian coordinate plane, each point is represented by a pair of coordinates (y, x). y is the value of the function f(x), and x is any input value of the function.

In this case, the function is given as f(m), which means that the input value is represented by m.

Hence, the graph is the plot of y = f(m).

The choice of the letter used for the variable is completely arbitrary and does not change either the math or the graph. It could have been said that the function is f(x) in which case the graph would be y = f(x). Nothing changes but the name that you use.

Evaluate the expression a3 -b/c for a = 3, b = 2 and c = 4. write in simplest form

Scilla [17]

Hello There!

Write out your equation:
$(a^3 - b)/c$
Substitute the values in:
$(3^3 - 2)/4$
Simplify:
$(27 - 2)/4$
$25/4$
Solve:
It is 6.25.

Therefore, your answer is 6 1/4.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

Find 25% of 80 kg A 40kg B 10kg C 8kg D 20kg help me plss

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

25% of 80 is D. 20kg

Step-by-step explanation:

50% of 80 is 40 and we know that 25% is half of 50%, so half of 40 would be 20.

So, the answer is D. 20kg

Hope this helps! :)
