Substitution method x-7y=-9 -x+8y=10

Mathematics
1 answer:

7 0

Answer:

x = -2, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

x-7y=-9---------------------equation 1

-x+8y=10-------------------equation 2

From equation 1, make x the subject of formula

x=7y-9----------------------equation 3

substituting x=7y-9 in equation 2,

-(7y-9)+8y=10

Expanding bracket

-7y+9+8y=10

Collecting like terms

8y-7y=10-9

y=1

substituting y=1 in 3

x=7(1)-9

x=7-9

x=-2

Which of the following can be represented by the equation y = 2x?
KatRina [158]

Answer:

B) Graph B only.

Step-by-step explanation:

Table A is not correct, because:

In Y = 2X, replacing each row:
3 =/= 2 x 2
6 =/= 2 x 4
9 =/= 2 * 6

Table B is correct, because:
When Y is 2, X is 1 which is equal to 2x1.
When Y is 4, X is 2 which is equal to 2x2.

2.8 = 2y<br> What does y equal?<br> 1.4<br> 0.5<br> 2.8<br> 0.6
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: 1.4

Step-by-step explanation: First, swap the sides of the equation so that the one with the variable can be in front.

So, its 2y=2.8

To solve this, you simply divide both sides of the equation by 2.

2 divided by 2 is 0. That leaves you with the y by itself. Then, 2.8 divided by 2 is 1.4

So, y=1.4

Please help it’s for geometry
vredina [299]

Answer:

x=25

Step-by-step explanation:

they are supplementary and adjacent, thus you do 4x-3+3x+8=180, simplify and get 7x+5=180, subtract 5 from 180 which is 175, then ending up with 7x=175 and 175/7 is 25.
