Mathematics

-2x+6y=6
-7x+8y=-5

2(7x+8y=-5)
-7(-2x+6y=6)
Distribute
14x+16y=-10
14x-42y=-42
eliminate
-26y=-32
divide
y=1.2

-2x+6(1.2)=6
-2x+7.4=6
subtract 7.4 on both sides
-2x=-1.4
divide
x=0.7

I believe this is right

Which statement describes the function y = axn when a = 1 and n is odd?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The graph is symmetric about the origin.

The graph does not pass through the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given:

  • the function y=axn
  • a = 1
  • n is odd

Because a = 1, then the given function can be rewritten as y = n.

  • The graph opens down

The function y = n will produce a horizontal line. Any function in the form of y = a single number, such as 4 or 9.3 will produce a horizontal line.

  • The graph is symmetric about the origin.

This is true, given the graph is a horizontal line.

  • The graph does not pass through the origin.

This is also true. We're given that n is an odd number. The graph will only pass through the origin if n = 0, and 0 is even.

  • The graph has more than one x-intercept.

This would only be true when n = 0, and this isn't possible. So, no.

Dovator [93]
2\frac{3}{10} +2\frac{3}{10} =\frac{(2\times10)+3}{10}+\frac{(2\times10)+3}{10} =\frac{20+3}{10}+\frac{20+3}{10}\\\\=\frac{23}{10} +\frac{23}{10} =\frac{23+23}{10} =\frac{46}{10} =4\frac{6}{10} =\boxed{\bf{4\frac{3}{5}}}

Marissa rode 4 3/5 miles in all.
