Solve the system of linear equations with substitution;

x+4y=14   Equation 1
<span> 3x+7y=22 Equation 2

Solve Equation 1 for x 

x + 4y = 14     Isolate the variable by moving the second variable to the other side using the inverse operation which in this case is subtraction. So.....
x + 4y =  14
 <span>  -  4y = -4y
</span> x        = 14 - 4y

Now insert your answer above into Equation 2.

3x + 7y = 22
3(14 -4y) + 7y = 22           Now distribute to eliminate parenthesis
42 - 12y + 7y = 22            

 42 - 5y = 22                      Combine like terms and remember the 12 is  
-42         -42                       technically negative
      -5y  =  -20                   Isolate the variable which in this case we divide
   -5y/-5 =  -20/-5
       y =  4

Going back to Equation 1. Insert the know variable to solve for x.

x+4y=14   Equation 1

x + 4(4) = 14
x + 16 = 14          Isolate the variable by subtracting 16 from both sides
  - 16    -16
x = -2

The solution is an ordered pair (x,y) ........ (-2, 4).

Check your work by inserting the ordered pair into either of the equations.

x+4y=14   Equation 1

-2 + 4(4) = 14
-2 + 16 = 14
        14 = 14

<span>3x+7y=22 Equation 2

3(-2) + 7(4) = 22
-6 + 28 = 22
       22 = 22</span>

</span>

7. 3/5 = 4.5/x

3x= 5(4.5)

x = 15/2

8. 6/4 = 9/x

6x= 45

x= 15/2

8. since triangle ABC and ADE are identical,

angle E is also 30 degrees

so angle D = 180-(30+70)=80 degrees

9. 9/3 = x/5

3x = 45

x = 45/3 = 15

Describe the transformations of how the graph y=x^2 can be transformed into y= -1/5 (x-4)^2 + 2
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Reflected over the x-axis, vertically shrunk by a factor of 1/5, moved right 4 units and up 2 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parent Graph: f(x) = a(bx - h)² + k

<em>a </em>is vertical stretch (a > 1) or shrink (a < 1) and reflection over x-axis

<em>b</em> is horizontal stretch or shrink and reflection over y-axis

<em>h</em> is horizontal movement left (if positive) or right (if negative)

<em>k</em> is vertical movement up (if positive) or down (if negative)

Now that we have our rules, we simply apply it to y = -1/5(x - 4)² + 2

<em>a</em> = -1/5, so reflection over x-axis and vertical shrink of 1/5 (1/5 < 1)

Nothing has changed <em>b</em>, so no horizontal stretch/shrink

<em>h</em> = -4, so horizontal movement right 4 units

<em>k</em> = 2, so vertical movement up 2 units

Can someone please take the time out of their day and help me with this question
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

76, 76 104

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 3 is vertical so it is congruent to Angle 2.

Angle 6 is corresponding, so it is congruent to Angle 2.

Angle 8 is linear to Angle 6, so they add to 180
