If you use a calculator and type it in as 5/12 your answer will be .416 which is smaller than .5 (half of a whole)

Y=1/2x +5<br> Y=-3/2x-7<br> Find x and y
gayaneshka [121]
I'm going to use the substitution method. 

If y = - 3/2 - 7, then:

1/2x + 5 = - 3/2x - 7

Combine like terms: 

4/2x = - 12. Mutiply both sides by 2/4 to get x = -12 (2/4)

Simplify to get:

x = - 6.

Plug - 6 back in for x in either equation.

Y = 1/2( - 6) + 5 which becomes Y = - 3 + 5.

X = - 6, Y = 2

Solve the following system of equations: −2x + y = 1 −4x + y = −1
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

<h2>x = 1, y = 3 → (1, 3)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-2x+y=1\\-4x+y=-1&\text{change the signs}\end{array}\right\\\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-2x+y=1\\4x-y=1\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad2x=2\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\.\qquad x=1\\\\\text{Put it to the first equation:}\\\\-2(1)+y=1\\-2+y=1\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\y=3

What is the product of 2x + y and 5x – y + 3?
Radda [10]

Answer:

The product of 2x + y and 5x – y + 3 is 10x^2+ 3xy + 6x - y^2 + 3y

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the two expressions can be expressed mathematically as;

(2x +y) (5x -y +3)

To obtain the product of these expressions, we simply expand the brackets as follows;

2x(5x -y +3) + y(5x -y +3)

= 10x^2 - 2xy + 6x + 5xy - y^2 + 3y

= 10x^2- 2xy + 5xy + 6x - y^2 + 3y

= 10x^2+ 3xy + 6x - y^2 + 3y

The product of 2x + y and 5x – y + 3 is thus 10x^2+ 3xy + 6x - y^2 + 3y
