Answer:

x = -8

y = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Elimination

2x - 3y = 14

5x - 3y = -10

__________--

-3x = 24

x = 24/-3

x = -8

Subsitution

2x - 3y = 14

2(-8) - 3y = 14

-16 - 3y = 14

-3y = 14 + 16

-3y = 30

y = 30/-3

y = -10

What is the distance between the points (4,9) and (14, -11)? Round to the

maks197457 [2]

Answer: 22.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula can be used to solve this problem.

$D=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1} )^2+(y_{2}-y_{1} )^2}$

We can plug in our x and y values to find the distance.

$D=\sqrt{(14-4)^2+(-11-9)^2}$

$D=\sqrt{10^2+(-20)^2}$

$D=\sqrt{100+400}$

$D=\sqrt{500}$

$D=22.4$

Our distance between the points is 22.4.

$(2p+4)+5(p-1)-(p+7)\\ \\ 2p+4+5p-5-(p+7)\\ \\ 2p+4+5p-5-p-7\\ \\ (2p+5p-p)+4-5-7\\ \\ (7p-p)-1-7\\ \\ 6p-8=2(3p-4)$

That should be the final answer. If you need help with the distribution process I can explain that separately if needed. If not, hope this helps!

Which set contains rational numbers?

neonofarm [45]

Rational numbers are any numbers that terminate (the decimal ends somewhere)

The only set that does this is D, since

$\sqrt{25} = 5$

All other sets have these:

$\sqrt{47} \: \sqrt{7} \: \pi$

None of these terminate (the decimals goes on forever), so the answer is D

5. Solve the inequality. -4(3-X) > 8 a. -5 b. x < -5 c. 5< x d. x < 5

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

x >5

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3-X) > 8

Divide by -4, remembering to flip the inequality

-4/-4(3-X) < 8/-4

3-x < -2

Subtract 3 from each side

3-x-3 < -2-3

-x <-5

Divide by -1, remembering to flip the inequality

x >5
