4x + y = 7<br>3x + 2y = 9​
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

x = 1

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><em><u>Substitution Method</u></em><em><u>:</u></em></h2>

Step 1:

Name The Equation

4x + y = 7 ...(1)

3x + 2y = 9 ...(2)

Step 2:

From Equation (1) we get,

4x = 7 - y

i.e.,

x = 7 - y/4

Step 3:

Substitute the value of <em><u>x = 7 - y/4</u></em> in equation (2)

i.e.,

3(7 - y/4) + 2y = 9

21 - 3y/4 + 2y = 9

21 - 3y + 8y/4 = 9

21 - 3y + 8y = 9 * 4

21 + 5y = 36

5y = 36 - 21

5y = 15

y = 15/5

<em><u>y = 3</u></em>

Step 4:

Substitute the value of <em><u>y = 3</u></em> in equation (1)

4x + y = 7

i.e.,

4x + (3) = 7

4x + 3 = 7

4x = 7 - 4

4x = 4

x = 4/4

<em><u>x = 1</u></em>

<h2><em><u>Verification</u></em><em><u>:</u></em><em><u> </u></em></h2>

4x + y = 7 i.e., <em>4(1) + (3) = 7</em>

3x + 2y = 9 i.e., <em><u>3(1) + 2(3) = 9</u></em>

Find the equation of the exponential function represented by the table below
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

y = 3^(1 + x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that each time x increases by 1, y increases by a factor of 3.

Thus, the required equation  has the form y = 3^x.

Check:  If x = 0, do we get 3?  No.  Therefore we must modify the exponent:

y = 3^(1 + x)

Check:  If x = 0, do we get 3?  3^(1 + 0) = 3 (correct)

If x = 2, do we get 27?  3(1 + 2) = 3^3 + 27 (correct)

If f, g, h
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

F(x) = 3x^2 + 1, G(x) = 2x - 3, H(x) = x

F(3) = 3(3)^2 + 1 = 27 + 1 = 28

G(4) = 2(4) - 3 = 8 - 3 = 5

2H(5) = 2(5) = 10

F(3) + G(4) - 2H(5) = 28 + 5 - 10

F(3) + G(4) - 2H(5) = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe I'm not sure tho
