Y=-x+2 y=-5x-6 What is y and x

Mathematics

To solve this system of equations, since y is already isolated in both equations, you can set the expressions to equal each other to solve for x:

-x + 2 = - 5x - 6
-x + 5x = -6 - 2
4x = -8
x = -2

Now that we have x, we can substitute it into one of the equations to find y:

y = -(-2) + 2
y = 2 + 2
y = 4

The last step is to substitute both values into both equations to see if they are correct:

4 = -(-2) + 2    -->    4 = 2 + 2    <--True
4 = -5(-2) - 6    -->    4 = 10 - 6    <--True

Answer:
x = -2
y = 4

Ronch [10]

Using law of cosines:

Cos(angle) = adjacent/ hypotenuse


Cos(22) = 12/x

Rewrite to get:

X = 12/cos(22)

Simplify:

X = 12.9424

Round the answer as needed.

Without drawing the graphs, find the points of intersection of the lines: a 7x+4y=23 and 8x–10y=19
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

(3,0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system has equations:

7x + 4y = 23 \\ 8x - 10y = 19

Let us multiply the second equation by 4 and the first equation by 10.

70x + 40y = 230 \\ 32x - 40y = 76

We add both new equations to get:

102x = 306 \\ x =  \frac{306}{102}  = 3

Put x=3 into the first equation and solve for y.

7(3) + 4y = 23 \\ 21 + 4y = 23 \\ 4y = 23 - 21 \\ 4y = 2 \\  y =  \frac{1}{2}

The point of intersection is the solution to the system of equation which is (3,0.5)

At camp in Green Bay, Wisconsin, 7/9 of the participants were from Wisconsin. Of that group 3/5 were 12 years old. What fraction
In-s [12.5K]
Since the problem stated that 7/9 of the participants were from Wisconsin, so 2/9 of it were not from Wisconsin. Now out of 7/9 participants, 3/5 of them were 12 years old, so 2/5 of them are not 12 years old. Since we now know the fractions, we'll get the equation 7/9 x 3/5 multiply 7 and 3 then divide it to the product of 9 and 5 to have the answer of 7/15. 7/15 of the participants of the camp in Green Bay is from Wisconsin and are 12 years old.
