Answer:

  2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's  define z = x-y, so solving for z will tell us exactly what we want to know. Then we can substitute for x: x = z+y, and our equations become ...

  7(z+y)+3y = 8   ⇒  7z +10y = 8

  6(z+y)-3y = 5   ⇒   6z +3y = 5

We can eliminate the y-variable by subtracting 3 times the first equation from 10 times the second:

  10(6z +3y) -3(7z +10y) = 10(5) -3(8)

  60z +30y -21z -30y = 50 -24 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  39z = 26 . . . . collect terms

  z = 26/39 = 2/3 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of z and reduce

The value of x - y is 2/3.

_____

The attached graph shows (x, y) = (1, 1/3), so x - y = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3.

If x= eighth root of y and y= z^16 how is x proportionate to z ?
ankoles [38]
x= \sqrt[8]{y}
\\ y = z^{16}



Plug "y" into the first equation.

x =  \sqrt[8]{z^{16}} = (z^{16})^{1/8} = z^{16/8} = z^2

Answer: x<5

Step-by-step explanation:

If the circle was dark then it would be x is less than or equal to 5. But here, since the circle is open, that means that 5 is not a possible solution for x. The answer is x<5. Hope this helps!

I need some help with this problem, #18. Can someone help me please??

<FOP = 2x + 2
<POQ = 10x - 8
<OF is bisects POQ

Comment
If you multiply POF (which is 2x + 2) by 2 it will be the same size as <POQ because POF is one of the bisected angles of < POQ.

Create an equation and solve
2(2x + 2) = 10x - 8     Remove the brackets.
4x  + 4 = 10x - 8        Add 8 to both sides.
4x + 4 + 8 = 10x        Combine like terms.
4x + 12 = 10x            Subtract 4x from both sides.
12 = 10x - 4x 
12 = 6x                      Divide by 6
x = 12/ 6
x = 2 <<<< answer A

Find <POF
< POF = 2x + 2
< POF = 2(2) + 2
<POF = 4 + 2
<POF = 6   <<<< answer B

Find <QOF
<QOF = <POF
<QOF = 6 <<<<< Answer C
        
Find <POQ
<POQ = 10x - 8
<POQ = 10(2) - 8
<POQ = 20 - 8
<POQ = 12 <<<<< Answer D
