Leto [7]3 years ago

Answer:

x =  -6; y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make Ax + By = C into two equations.

3x + 5y = -3

(1) 5y = -3x - 3

    y = -3/5x - 3/5

(2) 3x = -5y - 3

     x = -5/3y - 1

2. Insert (1) and (2) into -3x + 2y = 24.

(1) -3x + 2(-3/5x - 3/5) = 24

   -3x - 6/5x - 6/5 = 24

   -21/5x = 126/5

   x = 126/5 * -5/21

   x = -6

(2) -3(-5/3y - 1) + 2y = 24

    5y + 3 + 2y = 24

    7y = 21

    y = 3

Suppose you buy a phone for $200 and its value depreciates linearly. If the phone is worth $115 after four years, then what is t
vredina [299]

Answer:

$72.5

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Initial value = $200
  • Depreciated value after 4 years = $115

<u>Since depreciation rate is linear, then:</u>

  • 200 - 4x = 115
  • 4x = 200 - 115
  • 4x = 85
  • x = 85/4
  • x = 21.25

<u>Value after 6 years:</u>

  • 200 - 6*21.25 = 200 - 127.5 = $72.5

How do you graph a possible situation?
Svet_ta [14]
To graph a situation that would involve a linear graph, first determine your x and y axes.
The x-axis will be the independent variable, one that does not change based on other variables. An example is time.

The y-axis, the dependent variable, depends on the independent variable.

The model equation for a linear line is y = mx + b.
"m" is the slope, and the "b" is the y-intercept (where the graph crosses the x-axis at x=0).

For example, a situtation could be that Joe starts with $10 in his account and adds $5 every day to his account.
The x-axis is time in days.
The y-axis is amount of money in his account.
The slope, or rate of change is 5.
The y-intercept, the amount of money he has at x=0 (0 days) is $10.

The equation would be y = 5x + 10
To draw this, plot the y-intercept at (0, 10), and the next point would be 5 units up and one unit to the right because the slope is 5, or 5/1 (remember slope is rise over run: "rise" up 5 and "over" to the right 1).

You can spend at most $20 on tomatoes and red peppers for a soup. Tomatoes cost $2.50 per pound and red peppers cost $4 per poun
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The expression which represents the quantity of tomatoes and red peppers to buy is $ 2.50 × T + $ 4 × R = $ 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total amount spend for soup = $ 20

The cost of Tomatoes = $ 2.50 per pound

The cost of Red peppers = $ 4 per pound

Let the quantity of tomatoes to be bought = T pound

The quantity of red peppers to be bought = R pound

So, According to question

$ 2.50 × T + $ 4 × R = $ 20

I.e The expression which represents the quantity of tomatoes and red peppers to buy is $ 2.50 × T + $ 4 × R = $ 20   . Answer
