Answer: y= -2; x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

X=-4y.......equation 1

3x+2y=20......equation 2

Substitute the value of x into equation 2

3 (-4y) + 2y = 20

-12y + 2y = 20

-10y = 20

Divide both sides by -10

y = 20/-10

y = -2

Substitute the value of y into equation 1 to get the value of x

x = - 4(-2)

x = 8

I hope this helps greatly, please mark as brainliest answer.

Answer:

y=-2

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x=-4y into the other equation:

3(-4y)+2y =20

Multiply out the parenthesis:

-12y +2y = 20

-10y =20

Divide on both sides by -10:

y = 20/-10 =-2

Now, knowing y,you can substite it in the previous equation for x:

x = -4(-2)= 8

What is the value of expression of -5 square -3
Elanso [62]

Answer:

-0.008

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there,

When you have a negative exponent, it tells us how many times to multiply the reciprocal of the base. For example, this problem tells us to multiply the reciprocal of -5 (which is -\frac{1}{5}) three times since the exponent is -3. As a final solution, you should get -0.008.

Hope this explanation helps. Cheers.

6200.07 = 6.2 × 10^c + 7 × 10^d<br> Work out the values of c and d.
Nina [5.8K]

Answer: We have c = 3 and d = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve the equation:

6200.07 = 6.2x10^c + 7x10^d

First, we can separate the left number into two pieces:

6200.07 = 6200 + 0.07 = 6.2x10^c + 7x10^d

Now we can solve it as:

6200 = 6.2x10^c

6200/6.2 = 10^c

1000 = 10^c

now we can use that if y = a^x, then ln(y)/ln(a) = x

here we have:

c = ln(1000)/ln(10) = 3

and

0.07 = 7x10^d

0.07/7 = 10^d

0.01 = 10^d

d = ln(0.01)/ln(10) = -2
