(5,1). you have to find the opposite of the x-coordinate. <span />
( 7, 10.5 )
<em>Solution:
</em><em />
y = 2x - 3.5
x - 2 y = -14
Plug the first equation into the second equation like so;
x - 2 ( 2x - 3.5 ) = -14
Distribute -2 to 2x and -3.5
Your equation should now look like this:
x - 4x + 7 = -14
You want common numbers to be in the same side so you subtract 7 from both sides
x - 4x + 7 - 7 = -7 - 14
Now simplify both sides
x - 4x = -3x
- 7 - 14 = -21
In order to solve for x you need to get x by itself, so you divide both sides by -3
-3x / -3 = x
-21 / -3 = 7
x = 7
In order to solve for y you need to plug x in
(You can plug it into either equation, but I'm plugging it into the first one)
y = 2 (7) - 3.5
y = 14 - 3.5
y = 10.5
Answer:
b=20
c=160
Step-by-step explanation:
b has the same measurement as the other angle that is across from it. c is 160 because the line that c is on is a straight line so it is 180 degrees, you subtract the other angle on the line,20, then you get the answer.
1/2x + 1/3y = 3
Well, because every answer choice isn't in fraction form, simply multiply EVERYTHING by 6 :)
6(1/2x + 1/3y = 3)
Simplify.
3x + 2y = 18
So, our LAST answer choice is correct.
~Hope I helped!~
