The answer is x = 10, y = 10.

Step 1: rearrange the second equation for y.
Step 2: substitute y from the second equation into the first equation.
Step 3. Calculate y.

Step 1.
<span>The second equation is: 6x + 3y = 90
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
(6x + 3y)/3 = 90/3
6x/3 + 3y/3 = 30
2x + y = 30
Rearrange the equation:
y = 30 - 2x

Step 2.
</span>Substitute y from the second equation (y = 30 - 2x) into the first equation:
<span>15x + 9y = 240
15x + 9(30 - 2x) = 240
15x + 270 - 18x = 240
15x - 18x = 240 - 270
-3x = -30
x = -30/-3
x = 10

Step 3.
Since </span>y = 30 - 2x and x = 10, then:
y = 30 - 2 * 10
y = 30 - 20
y = 10

Answer:

Y=3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

If we take x = 1, according to the first function (the answer) y would be 8.

Other options:

—————

Formula 3:

Y= 2^x+5 == 7

Formula 4:

Y = x+8 == 9

True answer = 10.

——————

Ok, so the last one seems more accurate lets test the first and last one on two more numbers:

——————

X = 15

Formula 1:

50

Formula 4:

23

True answer = 60.

The first formula wins.

————————-

X= 10

Formula 1:

35

Formula 4:

18

True answer = 41

The first formula wins.

——————

So, we can see that the first formula is most accurate.

How many four-digit whole numbers are there such that the leftmost digit is odd, the second digit is even, and all four digits a
kiruha [24]

Answer: There are 1400 different combinations.

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditions are:

we have 4-digits: abcd.

all the digits are different.

a is an odd number, and b is an even number.

Then, for a, we have the options 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 (so we have 5 options).

for b, we have the options 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 (so we have 5 options).

for c, we can have odd or even numbers, so we have 8 options ( remember that there where 2 numbers already taken away, this is why we have only 8 options).

for d we have 7 options (because 3 numbers are already taken).

Then the number of combinations is equal to the product of the number of options for each selection:

C = 5*5*8*7 = 1400

Please please help. Marking Brilliant for the correct answer
NISA [10]

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(x-7+4) * 4 = 8^2

(x-3)*4 = 64

Divide each side by 4

x-3 =16

Add 3 to each side

x-3+3 = 16+3

x = 19

What is 2 3 (−7) + 2 3 (−5)
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 2/3 and your number. If you have a whole number, convert it to a fraction by putting it over a denominator of 1. When multiplying fractions, calculate numerator times numerator, then denominator times denominator. For example, to find two-thirds of 18, multiply 2/3 x 18/1 to get 36/3.

Reduce the resulting fraction as needed by dividing it by the common denominator. For example, the common denominator of 36 and 3 is 3. Diving 36 and 3 by 3 gives you a fraction of 12/1, which is the same as 12. Thus, two-thirds of 18 is 12.
