Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

lets reverse engineer this. 4x=40. What is known in this? We know 40 is the unit amount of 4x. So we need to find out what x is, than multiply it by 4. We can do this by doing the opposite of multiplying, which is dividing! So we divide 4 by 40, which we get the answer 10! We know this is the correct answer because we can factor it into the equation. So 4*10=40!!! hope this helped!!!

Which of the following equations could be the result of using the comparison method to solve the system shown?
masya89 [10]

Answer:

6-2y=4y+8

since you show x through y

Answer:

The result that is obtained on comparing the system of equations in order to get the solution to the system of equations is:

   6 -2y =4y + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a system of equations in term of variable x and y as follows:

                                x + 2y = 6 --------(1)

                           x - 4y = 8-------------(2)

From equation (1) we have the value of x in terms of y as:

                          x=6-2y

From equation (2) we have the value of x in terms of y as:

                         x=8+2y

Hence, on equation the above two values of 'x' we obtain:

                         6 - 2y = 4y + 8

Connecting a DVD player to a television set requires a cable with special connectors at both ends. You buy a six-foot cable for
ankoles [38]
So a 3 foot cable is10.25
a 6foot cable is 15.50
so
x=cost per foot
y=cost of special connectors
3x+y=10.25
6x+y=15.50
make first equation negative and add to the first
3x=5.25
divide both sides by 3
1.75=x
so it costs 1.75 for a foot of cable

subtitue into first equation
3(1.75)+y=10.25
5.25+y=10.25
subtract 5.25 from both sides
y=5 dollars=cost of special so
4x+y=4(1.75)+5=7+5=$12

so the cost of a 4 foot cable is $12
