Given:
2x - 3y = -6  ⇒ identified as 1st equation
x + 2y = 8    ⇒ identified as 2nd equation

Let us first get the value of x using the 2nd equation.
x + 2y = 8
x = 8 - 2y

Substitute x in the 1st equation with its value and find the value of y.
2x - 3y = -6
2(8-2y) - 3y = -6
16 - 4y -3y = -6
-4y - 3y = -6 -16
-7y = - 22
y = -22/-7
y = 22/7 simplified to 3 1/7

Substitute the value of y in the 2nd equation.
x = 8 - 2y
x = 8 - 2(22/7)
x = 8 - 44/7
x = (8 * 7/7) - 44/7
x = 56/7 - 44/7
x = (56-44)/7
x = 12/7 simplified to 1 5/7

To check:  x = 12/7 and y = 22/7  *we need to use the improper fractions.
2x - 3y = -6
2(12/7) - 3(22/7) = -6
24/7 - 66/7 = -6
(24-66)/7 = -6
-42/7 = -6
-6 = -6

x + 2y = 8
12/7 + 2(22/7) = 8
12/7 + 44/7 = 8
(12+44)/7 = 8
56/7 = 8
8 = 8

Find the original price of a salt lamp that is $76 after a 20% discount.
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

$76 x 1.20 = $92

$92 / 1.20 = $76

To keep and show decimals we divide 20 by 100 to show 1.02 then show any 2 placement decimals if none are shown in draft first then you can try in draft 20/1000 to see the difference between the decimals.

Which graph represents the function h(x) = -(x+6)³-3?
jek_recluse [69]

The correct answer is option B which is the second graph in the image showing the function h(x) = -(x+6)³-3.

<h3>What is a graph?</h3>

A graph is the representation of the data on the vertical and horizontal coordinates so we can see the trend of the data.

Given function:

h(x) = -(x+6)³-3.

The given function is cubic and cuts the x-axis at the point (-7.442,0) the graph is bending towards the left side in the second quadrant.

Therefore the correct answer is option B which is the second graph in the image showing the function h(x) = -(x+6)³-3.

Which system of equations can be used to find the roots of the equation 4x^2=x^3+2x
Viktor [21]

The given equation is 4x^2=x^3+2x.

On the left side it has 4x² and on the right side the expression is x³+2x.

So, if we have any system of equations in which we have these two expression which will be equal to any other variable then we can use that system of equations to find the roots.

Now notice that in option D it's given,

y=4x² and y=x³+2x.

So, if we will equate this equations then we will get the same above equation which will be use to find the roots.

So, D is the correct choice.
