Which properties justify the steps taken to solve the system? {3x−2y=10 4x−3y=14
Alexeev081 [22]
The answer is: Substitution property of equality.

 The explanation is shown below:

1. To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

 2. When you clear the variable x from the first equation, and subtitute it into the second equation, you obtain:

 <span>3x−2y=10
 x=(10+2y)/3

 4x−3y=14
 </span>4[(10+2y)/]−3y=14
<span> y=-2

 3. When you subsitute y=-2 into the first equation and clear the x, you have:

 x=2

I need help with this!
sashaice [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be w centimeters.

Then the length = w + 7.

The area A is found from the length multiplied by the width.

330 = w(w + 7) = w^2 + 7w.

Now we can rearrange this equation to form a quadratic, as follows:

The factorization of the quadratic is:

(w + 22)(w - 15) = 0

Therefore we find that:

width = 15 centimeters

length = 22 centimeters

The line perpendicular to y= (-3/2)x -4 and goes through (1,4)
Paladinen [302]

Answer <u>(assuming it is allowed to be in point-slope format)</u>:

y-4 = \frac{2}{3}(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, determine the slope. We know it has to be perpendicular to the given equation, y = -\frac{3}{2} x-4. That equation is already in slope-intercept form, or y = mx + b format, in which m represents the slope. Since -\frac{3}{2} is in place of the m in the equation, that must be the slope of the given line.

Slopes that are perpendicular are opposite reciprocals of each other (they have different signs, and the denominators and numerators switch places). Thus, the slope of the new line must be \frac{2}{3}.  

2) Now, use the point-slope formula, y-y_1 = m (x-x_1) to write the new equation with the given information. Substitute m, x_1, and y_1 for real values.

The m represents the slope, so substitute \frac{2}{3} in its place. The x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of a point the line intersects. Since the point crosses (1,4), substitute 1 for x_1 and 4 for y_1. This gives the following equation and answer:

y-4 = \frac{2}{3}(x-1)

What percent of the first 10 natural numbers are prime numbers? Answer in a percent please.<br> :)
saul85 [17]

So the first 10 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Since a prime number is only divisible by 1 and itself and greater than 1, our answers are 2, 3, 5, and 7. That's 4 numbers, or 4/10=0.4 of the 10. Since percentage is based out of 1, we can multiply 0.4 by 100 to get 40%. I hope that Helped :)
