Solve the systems by elimination: 8x-2y= -10 -4x+y= 5

Mathematics
1 answer:
Pachacha [2.7K]3 years ago
4 0

Let's eliminate x.  To achieve this, mult. the 2nd equation by 2, obtaining

-8x + 2y = 10.  Now add this result to the first equation:

8x-2y= -10

-8x + 2y = 10

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

        0

The two equations actually represent the same line.   Without an x- or a y-value, we cannot solve for the value of the other variable.  There are infinitely many solutions.

What is the equation of the vertical asymptote for the graph below ? <br> y = 5 + 1 / x + 3
n200080 [17]
Vertical asymptotes can be found by solving the equation n(x) = 0 where n(x) is the denominator of the function ( note: this only applies if the numerator t(x) is not zero for the same x value). Find the asymptotes for the function . The graph has a vertical asymptote with the equation x = 1.

What is 8/10 divided by 1 5/6
sveta [45]
1st change 1 5/6 into a mixed number:
1 5/6 = 11/6

New problem:
8/10 divided by 11/6

to divide fractions you turn the 1st fraction upside down and then change the division sign to a multiplication sign:

8/10 / 11/6
10/8 * 11/6
=55/24 or 1 7/24

2X+4=20+5X<br>A)1/2 B)-1/2 C)2 D)-2​
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

It seems that your options aren't correct as the right answer is -5.3333... (recurring)

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  2x + 4 = 20 + 5x   (subtract by the smallest unknown)

  -2x                  -2x

2)  4        = 20 + 3x

    -20      -20    (now subtract each side by 20 as we want to leave the unknown on one side and another number on the other side.

3) -16       = 3x   (Divide each side by 3)

   ÷3        = ÷3

4) -5.33333... = x

<h3>Now we have found x but if you're unsure you can substitute to see if your answer is correct.</h3><h3>2 x -5.3333 + 4 = -6.6666</h3><h3>20 + 5 x -5.3333= -6.6665</h3><h3>Our answer is correct! (When answers are rounded, it is equal to the same thing).</h3>
