What is the solution of the system? Use elimination. 7x + 5y = 19 −7x − 2y = −16

Make the coefficient of y the same in both equations:

To do this, multiply equation one by 2, and equation two by 5 (this will make the coefficient 10 in both).

14x + 10y = 38
-35x - 10y = -80


Eliminate the y variable by adding the equations from each other

   (14x + 10y = 38)
+ (-35x - 10y = -80)
=  -21x +  0y  = -42

We now have -21x = -42. The y variable has been eliminated.


Solve for x

-21x = -42

Divide both sides by -21 to get x on its own.

x = 2


Substitute x into the equation to find y.

7*2+5y=19

14+5y=19

Subtract 14 from both sides.

5y=19-14

5y=5

Divide by 5 on both sides to get y on its own.

y=5/5

y=1


The answer is (2,1)

8.876 to the nearest whole number
8.876 can be rounded to 9 because if we have a number greater than 5 we round to next number i.e is 9 but if we have a number smaller than 5 then we round to the previous number that is 8.

So your answer is 9

Factor *<br> (x^2/9)- 64
Hoochie [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

We use

a ^{2}  -  \times ^{2}  = (a -  \times )(a +  \times )

Now we have

\frac{ { \times }^{2} }{9}  - 64 = ( \frac{ \times }{3} ) ^{2}  -  {8}^{2}  \\  = ( \frac{ \times }{3}  - 8)( \frac{ \times }{3}  + 8)

Hope that useful for you

Help please I’m just not good at this and. Get really confused when putting things in standard form. Use two points on the line
frez [133]

Answer:

From the graph, the slope is -4/5 and the y-intercept is 4 so the slope-intercept equation is y = -4/5x + 4. To convert to standard form we'll do:

y = -4/5x + 4

5y = -4x + 20

4x + 5y = 20
