Solve the system of linear equations below. y = -2x + 19 y = x + 7

1 answer:

6 0

Hey there!

y = -2x + 19
y = x + 7

We gonna solve this system of equation by using the substitution method.

We wanna solve y = -2x + 19 for y

Let start by substitute -2x + 19 for y in y = x + 7

y = x + 7
-2x + 19 = x + 7

Subtract x from both sides

-2x + 19 - x = x + 7 - x

-3x + 19 = 7

Now subtract 19 on both sides

-3x + 19 - 19 = 7 - 19

-3x = -12

Then divide both sides by -3

-3x/-3 = -12/-3

x = 4

We have the value of x. Now we gonna use that same value to find the value for y.

We gonna do that by substitute 4 for x in y = -2x + 19

y = -2x + 19

y = -2(4) + 19

y = -8 + 19

y = 11

Thus,

The answer is: x = 4 and y = 11

Let me know if you have questions about the answer. As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!

Ryan just got hired for a new job and will make $48,000 in his first year Ryan was told that he can expect to get raises of $3,5

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

128500

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 3500

The formula for an arithmetic sequence is

an = a1+d(n-1) where a1 is the first term and d is the common difference

an = 48000+ 3500(n-1)

We want n = 24

a24 = 48000+3500(24-1)

= 48000+3500(23)

=48000+80500

=128500

which of the three sets could not be the lengths of the sides of a triangle {6,10,12} {5,7,10} {4,4,9} {2,3,3}

Phoenix [80]

So for this, we will be applying the Triangle Inequality Theorem, which states that the sum of 2 sides must be greater than the third side for it to be a triangle. If any inequality turns out to be false, then the set cannot be a triangle.

$A+B>C\\A+C>B\\B+C>A$

<h2>First Option: {6, 10, 12}</h2>

Let A = 6, B = 10, and C = 12:

$6+10>12\\16>12\ \textsf{true}\\\\6+12>10\\18>10\ \textsf{true}\\\\12+10>6\\22>6\ \textsf{true}$

<h2>Second Option: {5, 7, 10}</h2>

Let A = 5, B = 7, and C = 10

$5+7>10\\12>10\ \textsf{true}\\\\5+10>7\\15>7\ \textsf{true}\\\\10+7>5\\17>5\ \textsf{true}$

<h2>Third Option: {4, 4, 9}</h2>

Let A = 4, B = 4, and C = 9

$4+4>9\\8>9\ \textsf{false}\\\\4+9>4\\13>4\ \textsf{true}\\\\4+9>4\\13>4\ \textsf{true}$

<h2>Fourth Option: {2, 3, 3}</h2>

Let A = 2, B = 3, and C = 3

$2+3>3\\5>3\ \textsf{true}\\\\2+3>3\\5>3\ \textsf{true}\\\\3+3>2\\6>2\ \textsf{true}$

<h2>Conclusion:</h2>

Since the third option had an inequality that was false, <u>the third option cannot be a triangle.</u>
