Rearrange the following equation to solve for x. y=1/2x+10

1 answer:

6 0

In order to solve this we must first,

Subtract both sides of the equation by 10,
y-10=1/2x

Now we have to multiply both sides by 2 so that only x is left.

2y-20=x

Therefore, x=2y-20

Answer:

(a) So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.

(b) Checkpoint 5 is 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution for (a):

Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.

The top of a hill rises 583 feet above Checkpoint 2.

The altitude of the top of the hill = -218 + 583 = 365

So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.

Solution for (b):

Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.

Checkpoint 5 is -33 feet above sea level.

Checkpoint 5 is -33 - -218 = 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.

Solve the system of equations by graphing: 2x + 3y = 2 6x + 18y = 9

cluponka [151]

The answer is A: x=1/2 , y= 1/3

Solve the following system:
{2 x + 3 y = 2 | (equation 1)
{6 x + 18 y = 9 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:
{6 x + 18 y = 9 | (equation 1)
{2 x + 3 y = 2 | (equation 2)

Subtract 1/3 × (equation 1) from equation 2:
{6 x + 18 y = 9 | (equation 1)
{0 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 3:
{2 x + 6 y = 3 | (equation 1)
{0 x - 3 y = -1 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:
{2 x + 6 y = 3 | (equation 1)
{0 x+3 y = 1 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 2 by 3:
{2 x + 6 y = 3 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = 1/3 | (equation 2)

Subtract 6 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{2 x+0 y = 1 | (equation 1)
v0 x+y = 1/3 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 2:
{x+0 y = 1/2 | (equation 1)
v0 x+y = 1/3 | (equation 2)

Collect results:
Answer: {x = 1/2, y = 1/3
