Use elimination to solve this system of equations x-4y=11 5x-7y=-10

First, isolate x in x-4y=11 because 1 is x's coefficient.
x-4y=11
x=11+4y
Now, substitute 4y+11 for x in 5x-7y=-10.
5x-7y=-10
5(4y+11)-7y=-10
20y+55-7y=-10
Add all coefficients.
13y+55=-10
Isolate y by subtracting 55 from both sides.
13y+55=-10
13y=-10-55
13y=-65
y=-5
Now substitute -5 for y in your first equation.
x=11+4y
x=11+4(-5)
x=11-20
x=-9
Your answer would be (-9,-5).

What is the slope of a line is parallel to y=(1/2)x=3
aniked [119]
Hi there! The answer is (1/2)

I suppose you mean the slope of a line that is parallel to y = (1/2)x + 3.

This equation is written in slope-intercept form, which means that the number in front of x represents the slope of the line. The other number represents the y-intercept.

A line that is parallel to another line, will be a line with the same slope. Since the slope of y = (1/2)x + 3 is (1/2), the slope of a line parallel to this line is (1/2) as well.

~ Hope this helps you!

Lynna [10]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A margin of error provides information on the  percentage points ones results will differ from the real value.

If margin of error is 3% and estimated value is 6%, it means that the confidence interval would be within ±3 of the estimated value.

So, the confidence interval would be between 3% (6% - 3%) and 9% (6% + 3%)
