How to isolate a variable

Mathematics
1 answer:
Oksana_A [137]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The basic technique to isolate a variable is to “do something to both sides” of the equation, such as add, subtract, multiply, or divide both sides of the equation by the same number. By repeating this process, we can get the variable isolated on one side of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

I have no idea what I'm supposed to do for this question please explain

For part B
the fixed cost is 500 dollars because it is a set inital amount, the varibale cost is .15 because it is the cost dependent on something else (per indicated variable part)

y=.15x+500
.15 cents per flyer, add 500 because that is the set amount it costs to even create the flyer

Plug in 500 for the equation
y=.15(500)+500
y=75+500
y=575


for part a b=ka for direct variations so the direct one is C - two items directly multiplied y=mx+b for partial variation so its A,D - basically the equation of a line A is neither - shows neither of these relationships

Please help, very confused

Answer:

1.

-3x + 8y = -5

6x + 2y = -8

Set the equations to a common variable.

-3x + 8y = -5 → 8y = 3x - 5 → y = 3/8x - 5/8

6x + 2y = -8 → 2y = -6x - 8 → y = -3x - 4

Set the equations equal to each other.

3/8x - 5/8 = -3x - 4

Combine like terms.

3x + 3/8x = -4 + 5/8

3.375x = -3.375

Divide by 3.375

x = -1

Plug x back in to find y.

-3x + 8y = -5

-3(-1) + 8y = -5

3 + 8y = -5

8y = -8

y = -1

answer: (-1, -1)

2.

3x + 2y = -16

-3x - 8y = 46

Set the equations to a common variable.

3x + 2y = -16 → 2y = -3x - 16 → y = -3/2x - 8

-3x - 8y = 46 → -8y = 3x + 46 → y = -3/8x - 23/4

Set the equations equal to each other.

-3/2x - 8 = -3/8x - 23/4

Combine like terms.

-9/8x = 9/4

or

-1.125x = 2.25

Divide by -1.125

x = -2

Plug x back in to find y.

3(-2) + 2y = -16

-6 + 2y = -16

2y = -10

y = -5

answer: (-2, -5)
