Solving algebraically we get x=2 and y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equations:

$y=-x-2\\y=-2x$

Solving and finding value of x and y

Let:

$y=-x-2\,\,eq(1)\\y=-2x\,\,eq(2)$

Subtract both equations

$y=-x-2\\y=-2x\\-\,\,\,\,+\\------\\0=x-2\\x=2$

Putting value of x in eq(1) and find value of y:

$y=-x-2\\y=-2-2\\y=-4$

So, value of y is -4

Solving algebraically we get x=2 and y=-4

Question part points submissions used consider the following. g(x)={((x**2-a**2)/(x-a) text(if ) x != a,4 text(if ) x =

EastWind [94]

For $x\neq a$ , we have

$\dfrac{x^2-a^2}{x-a}=\dfrac{(x-a)(x+a)}{x-a}=x+a$

So for $g(x)$ to be continuous at $x=a$ , we require that the limit as $x\to a$ is equal to 4.

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to a}g(x)=\lim_{x\to a}(x+a)=2a=4\implies a=2$

A human body had 30 times as many platelets as white blood cells. A small sample of blood has 8×10'3 white blood cells. About ho

Contact [7]

To determine the number of platelets present in the human body, we need a relation that would relate this value to the given value above which is the number of white blood cells. Fortunately, we are given a ratio of 30. So, we use this value as follows:

number of platelets/number of white blood cells = 30
number of platelets / <span>8×10^3 white blood cells = 30
number of platelets = 240000</span>
