Solve using substitution y=1/2x x+4y=18

Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleks [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The solution set is (6,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by multiplying equation 1 by 2. You'll see why in a moment

2y = 2*(1/2) x

2y = x

Substitute this value into equation 2.

2y + 4y = 18                  Combine like terms on the left

6y = 18                          Divide both sides by 6

6y/6 = 18/6                    Do the division

y = 3

To solve for x just use the top equation

y = 1/2x

3 = 1/2x                          Multiply by 2

3*2 = x

x = 6

timurjin [86]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  31

If we assume the number of potatoes is proportional to the weight, then we can write the equation ...

  n/10 = 10/3.2

  n = 100/3.2 = 31.25 . . . . . . . multiply by 10

There may be 31 potatoes in a 10-lb bag.

maw [93]

Answer:

$36

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Determine the surface area of the  largest jaw breaker

Surface area of a sphere = 4πr²

4 x 3.14 x 2² = 50.24in²

2. Determine the surface area of the new jaw breaker

4 x 3.14 x 6² = 452.16 in²

3. Determine the cost per area

4/ 50.24

4. Determine the price for the new jaw breaker

4/ 50.24 x 452.16 = $36

Write an equation of the line that passes through point (-1, 5) and has the slope m = 4.
hram777 [196]
You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the point (-1,5) and has a slope of 4.
First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b
Where:
m is the slope, and
b is the y-intercept
To start, you know what m is; it's just the slope, which you said was 4. So you can right away fill in the equation for a line somewhat to read:
y=4x+b.
Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) point means:
(-1,5). When x of the line is -1, y of the line must be 5.
