You would equal the equations together then solve for a variable.

-4x - 3 = -2x + 1

-4x + 2x = 1 + 3

-2x = 4
—— —-
-2 -2

x = -2

then take that x value and substitute it into any one of the equations.

Equation #1
y = -4(-2) -3
= 8 - 3
= 5

Equation #2
y = -2(-2) + 1
= 4 + 1
= 5

Answer:

The value of x=-2 and the value of y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

Y=-4x-3 -----> equation A

y= -2x + 1 -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The intersection point is (-2,5)

see the attached figure

therefore

The value of x=-2 and the value of y=5

I need to explain/show work.<br> Help please

Answer:

adult tickets = 17, children tickets = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of children and y the number of adults

Then given that 26 tickets are sold, we can write

x + y = 26 → (1)

Given that ticket cost was $194 we can write

5.5x + 8.5y = 194 → (2)

Rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x by subtracting x from both sides

y = 26 - x → (3)

Substitute y = 26 - x into (2)

5.5x + 8.5(26 - x) = 194 ← distribute and simplify left side

5.5x + 221 - 8.5x = 194

- 3x + 221 = 194 ( subtract 221 from both sides )

- 3x = - 27 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = 9

Substitute x = 9 into (3) for corresponding value of y

y = 26 - 9 = 17

Hence number of adult tickets sold = 17

number of children tickets sold = 9

triangle MNO is an equilateral triangle with sides measuring 16 units What is the height of the triangle?

fiasKO [112]

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

The equilateral triangle has three equal sides

so

in the equilateral triangle ABC

$AB=BC=AC=16 units$

the height of the triangle is the segment BD

in the right triangle BCD

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$BC^{2} =BD^{2}+DC^{2}$

solve for BD

$BD^{2}=BC^{2}-DC^{2}$

substitute the values

$BD^{2}=16^{2}-8^{2}$

$BD^{2}=192$

$BD=\sqrt{192}\ units$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the height of the triangle is $\sqrt{192}\ units$
