Hello!!!

To solve the system of linear equations, you need to isolate y to one side.

y=-2x+1
3x-y=-6

From here, you use the substitution method:

Substitute the first equation into the second
3x-(-2x+1)=-6

Distribute the -1, and be careful!!!!
3x+2x-1=-6

Combine like terms
5x-1=-6

Add 1 to both sides

5x=-5

Divide by 5

x=-1

And x=-1 is the first part of your answer. To find the second part, or y, you need to plug x back into the first equation.

y=-2x+1

y=-2(-1)+1

y=2+1

y=3

And your complete answer is x=-1 and y=3


Hope this helps!!!

If g(x) = 2x - 5 and h(x) = 3x + 7, then g(h(x)) = ?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

g(h(x))=g(3x + 7). Since h(x)=3x + 7

g(h(x))= 2(3x + 7) - 5

g(h(x))= 6x + 14 -5

=6x +9

A set of equations is shown above. Which method eliminates one of the variables? A) Multiply equation A by -1/3 and add the resu
Paraphin [41]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying Equation A by (1/3) and adding the result to Equation B will do the trick.  Let's actually solve the problem!

Equation A:  (5/3)x + 3y = 12

Equation B:    4x     -  3y = 8

                    ---------------------------

                     (5/3 + 12/3)x = 15        Note how this has eliminated the variable

                            (17/3)x = 15           y.

                                   x = (3/17)(15)

The graph represents a person's heart rate in beats per minute during 30 minutes of exercise.
Andrej [43]

Looking at the graph closely we can see that the heart rate increases from 0 to 6 min then became steady from 6 to 25 min then finally decreases from 25 to 30 min. Therefore the correct answer is:

“The heart rate increases for 6 minutes, remains constant for 19 minutes, and then gradually decreases for 5 minutes.”

 

In real life cardiac exercises, we can interpret that the period from 0 to 6 min is the period where the person is still warming up thus leading to an increase in heart rate. At 6 min, the person is fully warmed up hence reaching a stable heart rate. Then at 25 min, the person starts cooling down which means that the exercise is ending soon.
