X-5y=2 and 9x+8=15 solve by substitution

Mathematics

x-5y=2
Hence x=2+5y   (Equation I)
9x+8=15             (Equation II)
Substituting Equation I in Equation II
9(2+5y)+8=15
18+45y+8=15
26+45y=15
45y=-11
Hence y= - \frac{11}{45}

Substituting this in Equation in I to get X

x-5(- \frac{11}{45} )=2
x+ \frac{11}{9}=2
x= 2- \frac{11}{9}
x= \frac{17}{9}

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (6, 0) and (-1, -7)?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

y = x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write a line in slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

First, we need to find the slope, which is just the change in the y-coordinates divided by the change in the x-coordinates:

slope = m = \frac{6-(-1)}{0-(-7)} =\frac{7}{7}=1

Our equation now looks like this: y = x + b

Now, to find the y-intercept, let's use one of the points provided and plug those values of x and y into the incomplete equation we have to solve for b:

0 = 6 + b  ⇒  b = -6

So, the equation is: y = x - 6.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

(a) 6x + (x + 12) = 180  

(b) m<1 = 144       m<2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 12 = 180

7x = 168

x = 24

6(24) = 144

(24) + 12 = 36

A data set has a median of 12, an upper quartile of 15, a lower quartile of 10, a minimum of 4, and a maximum of 20. Which state
ololo11 [35]

Given:

A data set has a median of 12, an upper quartile of 15, a lower quartile of 10, a minimum of 4, and a maximum of 20.

To find:

The correct statement for the box plot.

Solution:

Lower quartile is 10 and upper quartile is 15, so the box will go from 10 to 15.

Median of the data set is 12, so a line dividing the box will be at 12.

Minimum value is 4 and lower quartile is 10, so the left whisker will go from 4 to 10.

Upper quartile is 15 and maximum value is 20, so the right whisker will go from 15 to 20.

Therefore, the correct option is B.
