9x+y=43 4x+2y=16 using the substitution method

1 answer:

6 0

Isolate y for substitution, and we have y=43-9x.

Substitute y in the next equation, and we have
4x+2(43-9x)=16, which leads to
4x+86-18x=16,
-14x=-70
x=5

Plug x into an equation, now that we have found the value.
9(5)+y=43
45+y=43
y=-2

Now double check our answer:

9(5)+(-2)=?
45+(-2)=43

4(5)+2(-2)=?
20+(-4)=16

So, x=5 and y=-2.

Lines ℓ and m are intersected by transversal t. ℓ ∥ m. Lines l and m are horizontal with l above m and intersected by transveral

artcher [175]

Answer:

<5 = 105 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

From the description given, since line l is parallel to m then <4 is alternate to <5 and two alternate angles are equal, if thst is the case

<4 = <5 (alternate angle)

Since <4 = 105 degrees, hence m<5 = 105 degrees

I need to find the product help

Licemer1 [7]

I'm assuming you mean

$2\times\frac{17}{10}$

Write the 2 as a fraction 2/1 and multiply.

$\frac{2}{1}\times\frac{17}{10}=\frac{34}{10}=\frac{17}{5}$

lesantik [10]

Answer: No, New York students are not truly more nerdy than the California students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students in a group = 50

Mean score of New York psychology = 530

Mean score of California psychology = 515

Standard deviation = 80

So, we will find t-distribution first.
