2x - 2y = -12
4x - 7y = -15
Multiply the first equation by -2 to make the 2x the opposite of 4x:
2x - 2y = -12 x -2 = -4x + 4y = 24
Now add this to the second equation:
-4x + 4y = 24 + 4x - 7y = -15:
-3y = 9
Divide both sides by -3
y = 9 / -3
y = -3
Now you have Y, replace y in one of the equations and solve for x:
2x - 2(-3) = -12
2x +6 = -12
Subtract 6 from both sides:
2x = -18
Divide both sides by 2:
x = -18 /2
X = -9
Check:
2(-9) - 2(-3) = -12
-18 + 6 = -12 TRUE
4(-9) - 7(-3) = -15
-36 +21 = -15 TRUE
X = -9, y = -3
(-9,-3)
Answer:
Natural selection is a mechanism, or cause, of evolution. Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that make an organism better suited to its environment. Heritable variation comes from random mutations. Random mutations are the initial cause of new heritable traits.
Answer:
CH = 22°
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Arc AC and Arc CH both equal to 180°, therefore we can say;
AC + CH = 180°
158 + CH = 180°
CH = 180 - 158
CH = 22°
Hope this helps!
6x + 12y = 24
Substitute "0" for "y" to find x .
6x+12(0)=24
6x=24
Now divide 6 both sides to get x alone.
X= 24/6
X= 4
So since we substitute 0 for y.
Answer is (4,0) for x-intercept
