The soluition set is (-3,5) and a normal ordered pair reads (x,y). So that means 5 = [_]x-10
-Add 10 to both sides
15 = [_]x
-And we know the value of x so lets sub that in.
15 = [_](-3)
-And now we divide by -3
-5 = [_]
Next we have 3x-[_]y=-19
-Lets start this buy substituting values of x and y into the equation again.
3(-3)-[_](5)=-19
-Simplify
-9 - [_](5) = -19
-Move the (-9) by adding 9 to both sides
-[_](5) = -10
-divide by 5 = -2
-(1)[_] = -2
[_] = 2
Answer:
7/20
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 = 8/20
1/4 = 5/20
20/20 - 13/20 = 7/20
Answer:
I would set this up as:
let: lesser number = x
greater number = 2x + 5
Restating the word problem:
lesser number + greater number = 38
x + 2x + 5 = 38
Solving: 3x + 5 = 38
- 5 -5
---------------
3x = 33

3 3
x = 11
Substitution for the greater number:
2(11) + 5
22 + 5
27
Answer:
f(12) = - 20
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate f(12), substitute x = 12 into f(x), that is
f(12) = - 2(12) + 4 = - 24 + 4 = - 20
