-3x-3y=3 y=-5x-17 I m confused. Helppp

Mathematics

Sladkaya [172]3 years ago
5 0

So for this system I will be applying the substitution method. Since y = -5x - 17, replace the y variable in the first equation with -5x - 17 and solve for x as such:

-3x-3(-5x-17)=3\\-3x+15x+51=3\\12x+51=3\\12x=-48\\x=-4

Now that we have the value for x, substitute it into either equation to solve for y:

-3*-4-3y=3\\12-3y=3\\-3y=-9\\y=3\\\\y=-5*-4-17\\y=20-17\\y=3

<u>In short, x = -4 and y = 3.</u>

Solve for b Help pls thanks!:) see photo
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

b = -9 + a + c

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{a - b + c} = 3

Square both sides.

a - b + c = 9

-b = 9 - a - c

b = -9 + a + c

Last month Steve had $125 in his savings account This
ludmilkaskok [199]

20%.

As you can see, he gained 25 dollars within the past month.

There is a simple formula for this.

Increase = New number - original number. Then divide your answer by the original number and multiply by a hundred.

150 - 125 = <u>25</u>

25/125 = <u>0.2</u>

0.2 * 100 = 20%
