2x+5y= 3 -x+ 3y= -7 Using Elimination

1 answer:

3 0

2x + 5y = 3
-x + 3y = -7

multiply the second equation by 2
-2x + 6y = -14

2x + 5y = 3
-2x + 6y = -14

add two equations
2x + 5y = 3
+ -2x + 6y = -14
------------------------------
11y = -11
y= -1

substitute -1 to any of the equations
2x + 5(-1) = 3
2x - 5 = 3
2x = 8
x = 4

so the final answers are..
x = 4 , y = -1

The nth term of a sequence is 8(n+3)<br> what are the first four terms?

8090 [49]

Answer:

32, 40, 48, 56

Step-by-step explanation:

$a_n= 8(n+3)...(given) \\\\ a_1= 8(1+3) = 8 \times 4 = 32 \\ \\ \: a_2= 8(2+3) = 8 \times 5 = 40 \\ \\ a_3= 8(3+3) = 8 \times 6 = 48 \\ \\ a_4= 8(4+3) = 8 \times 7 = 56 \\$

What are the domain and range of the function below?

Sonbull [250]

ANSWER

Domain:
$x \geqslant 0$

Range:
$y \leqslant 4$

EXPLANATION

The domain refers to the values of x for which the function is defined.

The least value of x is 0.

Therefore the domain is $[0,\infty]$ .

or

$x \geqslant 0$

The range refers to values of y for which x is defined.

The highest value on the y-axis that the graph can attained is 4. The function decreases without bound.

There the range is $(- \infty,4]$ .

or

$y \leqslant 4$

How do u find the point in a graph if they are not given to u when u solving changing y over changing x

stiks02 [169]

U would replace x with 0 in the equation and solve and then do the same but with y and those are ur x and y values of ur point
Ex: 2x+5y=15
2(0) +5y=15
5y=15
Y=3
2x+5(0)=15
2x=15
X=7.5
So ur point would be (7.5,3)
