Solve the system of equations y = x + 5 and y = 5x - 11 using a graphical method.
tresset_1 [31]

You can use substitution for this.

x+5 = 5x -11

Combine like terms

16=4x

Divide 4 on both sides to isolate the x

x=4

Plug x=4 to one of the equations

y= 4 +5

Combine like terms

y=9

So the answer is A. (4,9)

I hope this helps you out a bunch hun :)

During a blizzard it snowed 5 and 8/10in after a week the sun had melted 3 and 1/2 inches of snow how many inches of snow is lef
WITCHER [35]

2\frac{3}{10} inches of snow is left

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

From given,

Original\ amount\ of\ snow = 5\frac{8}{10}\ inches = \frac{10 \times 5 + 8}{10} = \frac{58}{10}\ inches

Sun\ melted = 3\frac{1}{2}\ inches = \frac{2 \times 3 + 1}{2} = \frac{7}{2}\ inches

<em><u>how many inches of snow is left</u></em>

Snow left = original amount of snow - sun melted

Snow\ left = \frac{58}{10} - \frac{7}{2}\\\\Snow\ left = \frac{58}{10} - \frac{7 \times 5}{2 \times 5}\\\\Snow\ left = \frac{58}{10} - \frac{35}{10}\\\\Snow\ left = \frac{58 - 35}{10}\\\\Snow\ left = \frac{23}{10}\\\\\In\ mixed\ fractions\\\\Snow\ left = 2\frac{3}{10}

Thus 2\frac{3}{10} inches of snow is left

3x-4 or = to 7<br><br><br> plz help
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

3 + 4 = 7  which is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you have an equation with a plain variable (that is, no exponent included), there is only one number that will work when substituted for x.

To solve it, you have to "undo" what is done to the variable. You also go in the reverse order of operations, so you do the addition/subtract first, then multiplication/division.

You also have to do the same to both sides, kind of like keeping a balance scale in balance.

In this case, we subtract 4 from both sides first:

3x + 4 -4 = 7 - 4

The + 4 - 4 cancel each other out, so you get:

3x = 3

3x means "3 times x" so you divide by 3 to undo it. I will use the / to indicate division:

3x / 3 = 3 /3  

so 1x = 1.

Since 1x is "1 times x" it is the same as x by itself, so:

x=1

AND, if we substitute 1 back into the original equation (the asterisk stands for multiply):

3 * 1 + 4 = 7

3 * 1 is 3, so:

3 + 4 = 7     which is true.

1 is the only number that works.

Hope this helped.
