-2x + y = 8
y = 2x + 8
now sub in 2x + 8 for y in the other equation
3x + 2y = 2
3x + 2(2x + 8) = 2...distribute the 2 thru the parenthesis
3x + 4x + 16 = 2
7x = 2 - 16
7x = - 14
x = -14/7
x = -2
now sub -2 in for x in either equation to find y
-2x + y = 8
-2(-2) + y = 8
4 + y = 8
y = 8 - 4
y = 4

solution is : (-2,4)

PLEASE ANSWER THIS ASAP, I WILL BE GIVING YOU A THANKS! .
timama [110]

Answer:

D.) 12

Step-by-step explanation:

16x - 3(4x + 5) = 2x + 9

16x - 12x - 15 = 2x + 9

4x - 2x = 15 + 9

2x = 24

2x/2 = 24/2

x = 12

Check:

16x - 3(4x + 5) = 2x + 9

16(12) - 3(4(12) + 5) = 2(12) + 9

192 - 3(48 + 5) = 2(12) + 9

192 - 3(53) = 24 + 9

192 - 159 = 33

33 = 33

Amlyah increased her bench press
NikAS [45]
<h3>Answer:  20% increase</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

A = old value = 110

B = new value = 132

C = percent change

C = 100*(B-A)/A

C = 100*(132-110)/110

C = 20%

The positive C value means we have a percent increase, which corresponds to the fact that A = 110 increases to B = 132.

The B-A = 132-110 = 22 portion up top indicates that the increase is 22 pounds, which when divided over 110, gets us 22/110 = 0.20 = 20%

---------------

Checking the answer:

20% of 110 = 0.20*110 = 22

She's able to lift 22 extra pounds on top of the 110 pounds she can handle previously, so she can now lift 110+22 = 132 pounds. The answer is confirmed.

How to find the discriminant of
Sonbull [250]

the discriminant   b^2 - 4ac when the equation is in the form of ax^2 +bx+c=0

13x^2-16x = x^2 -x

we need to get in it the standard form

subtract x^2 from each side

12x^2 -16x = -x

add x to each side

12x^2 -15x = 0

12x^2 -15x -0 =0

a=12 b=-15 c=0

b^2 -4ac

the discriminant = b^2

b^2 = (-15)2 = 225
