-2x + 6y = 6 -7x + 8y = -5

Mathematics
1 answer:
AleksandrR [38]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x=-2\\y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+6y=6\\-7x+8y=-5

Let's multiply the first equation by 7 and the second equation by -2

(7)(-2x+6y=6)\\(-2)(-7x+8y=-5)

-14x+42y=42\\14x-16y=10

Now add them together. In this step, x is eliminated.

26y=52

Divide by 26.

y=\frac{52}{26}\\ y=2

Now plug this into any of the two equations to find x.

-2x+6y=6\\-2x+6(2)=6\\-2x+12=16\\-2x=16-12\\-2x=4\\x=\frac{4}{-2}\\ x=-2

Answer:

  • vertex (3, -1)
  • y-intercept: (0, 8)
  • x-intercepts: (2, 0), (4, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

You are being asked to read the coordinates of several points from the graph. Each set of coordinates is an (x, y) pair, where the first coordinate is the horizontal distance to the right of the y-axis, and the second coordinate is the vertical distance above the x-axis. The distances are measured according to the scales marked on the x- and y-axes.

__

<h3>Vertex</h3>

The vertex is the low point of the graph. The graph is horizontally symmetrical about this point. On this graph, the vertex is (3, -1).

<h3>Y-intercept</h3>

The y-intercept is the point where the graph crosses the y-axis. On this graph, the y-intercept is (0, 8).

<h3>X-intercepts</h3>

The x-intercepts are the points where the graph crosses the x-axis. You will notice they are symmetrically located about the vertex. On this graph, the x-intercepts are (2, 0) and (4, 0).

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The reminder that these are "points" is to ensure that you write both coordinates as an ordered pair. We know the x-intercepts have a y-value of zero, for example, so there is a tendency to identify them simply as x=2 and x=4. This problem statement is telling you to write them as ordered pairs.

It is recommended that there be at least 7 square feet of work space for every person in a conference room. A certain conference
Artyom0805 [142]
The square footage of the room is length times width...in this case 16 x 12 =192 then divide that by 7 and it can accommodate 27 people.

Help please and thank you

First, we can see that there are four sides, and none of these equation contradict each other, so it is safe to say that <em>this is a quadrilateral</em>.

Second, all of the equations have the slope of <em>0 or undefined</em>, so it is a rectangle.

Lastly, the four points of intersection shows us that the side lengths are <em>3 and 5</em> units, so the area of it is 15 units².
