We have:

x - 3y = 4

Pass -3y to the second member of equation

x = 4 + 3y

Now replace on the other equation tge value of x

2x + y = 7

2.(4 + 3y) + y = 7

Do the diatributive

2 ×4 + 2×3y + y = 7

8 +6y+y = 7

8 + 7y = 7

7y = 7 - 8

7y = - 1

y = -1/7

Now replace y = -1/7 in any equation

x = 4 + 3y

x = 4 + 3 . -1/7

x = 4 -3/7

x = (4×7 -3)/7

x = 25/7

Answer:

$S_4=50$

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum Of Arithmetic Sequence

Given an arithmetic sequence

$a_1,\ a_1+r,\ a_1+2r,....,\ a_1+(n-1)r$

The sum of the n first terms is

$\displaystyle S_n=\frac{(a_1+a_n)n}{2}$

Or equivalently

$\displaystyle S_n=\frac{[2a_1+(n-1)r]n}{2}$

The given sequence is

5, 8, 11 ...

We can see the common difference between terms is r=3

We are asked to find the sum of the terms 2 to 5, it means that

$a_1=8, n=4, r=3$

$\displaystyle S_4=\frac{[2(8)+(4-1)3]4}{2}$

$\displaystyle S_4=\frac{100}{2}$

$\boxed{S_4=50}$

Let f(x) = - 13x + 12 and g(x)= x² + 2.--Find f(3)/g(3).f(3)/g(3) = (?)(Type an integer or a simplified fraction.)

mel-nik [20]

We have the next two equations:

$f(x)=-13x+12$

And

$g(x)=x^2+2$

We need to find f(3)/g(3)

First, let's find f(3):

$f(3)\text{ = -13(3)+12 = -27}$

Then g(3):

$g(3)=(3)^2+2\text{ = 11}$

Now, the equation f(3)/g(3) :

$\frac{f(3)}{g(3)}=\frac{-27}{11}$

-27/11 is the result.
