5x+2y=5
x=3y-16
5(3y-16)+2y=5
15y-80+2y=5 collect the like terms
15y+2y=5+80
17y=85 divide both sides by 17
y=5

5x+2(5)=5
5x+10=5
5x=-5
x=-1
so x=-1 and y=5

5x + 2y = 5
Since, x = 3y - 16
Therefore,
5(3y - 16) + 2y = 5
15y - 80 +2y = 5
17y = 85
y = 5
therefore,
x = -1
y = 5

If you have 36 ft of fencing, what are the bases and side lengths of the different parallelograms you could enclose with the fen

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

$(l,w) = (1,17)$

$(l,w) = (2,16)$

$(l,w) = (3,15)$

---

$(l,w) = (9,9)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$P = 36ft$ --- perimeter

$l \to length$

$w \to width$

Required

Possible dimension of different parallelogram

The perimeter is calculated as:

$P=2(l+w)\\\\\\$

So,we have:

$2(l+w)=36$

Divide by 2

$l + w = 18$

Since l and w must be positive integers, the possible dimensions are:

$(l,w) = (1,17)$

$(l,w) = (2,16)$

$(l,w) = (3,15)$

---

$(l,w) = (9,9)$

How to graph 200-25x=y

In-s [12.5K]

Simplifying
y = -25x + 200

Reorder the terms:
y = 200 + -25x

Solving
y = 200 + -25x

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Simplifying
y = 200 + -25x
