Explain how additive inverses are used in subtraction

Mathematics
1 answer:
slavikrds [6]3 years ago

Given a number n, the addititive inverse is -n since n+(-n)=0. However
n+(-n) is the same as n-n which is 0 also.
SO adding the additive inverse it the same as subtracting

Y=4x<br> x+y=5 use substitution method
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

x = 1, y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x

x + y = 5

Since 4x is equal to the variable y, we can substitute it in for y in the second equation.

x + (4x) = 5

Solve for x.

x + 4x = 5

5x = 5

5x/5 = 5/5

x = 1

Now that we have solved for x, we need to solve for y.

y = 4x

x = 1 so substitute the x with 1.

y = 4(1)

y = 4

We can plug both of our answers into any one of the given equations to check our work

x + y = 5

x = 4 and y = 1

4 + 1 = 5

5 = 5

Can someone answer this
ryzh [129]

Answer:

y = 2x + b (the second answer choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b (the m representing slope and the b representing y-intercept). Put the points in ratio form as a fraction and subtract the ratio with the smallest numbers from the ratio with the largest ratio (5/1 - 1/-1) to get 4/2. When simplified, it becomes 2/1, so the slope is 2. Using the slope found previously, subtract 1 from the x of (1, 5) and 2 from the y of (1, 5) to get the y-intercept. The resulting point is (0, 3), so the y-intercept is 3. Replace the m with the found slope (2) and b with the found y-intercept (3) to end up with y = 2x + 3.
