Goryan [66]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The solution is (8, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 4y = 12..........(1)

y = 1/4x – 3 ..........(2)

Substitute y = x - 3 in equation (1):

2x + 4(1/4x - 3) = 12

2x + x - 12 = 12

3x = 24

x = 8.

Now substitute for x in equation (2):

y = 1/4 *8 - 3

y = -1.

Identify the slope of the line for the equation y= -2/3× + 1/3​
natita [175]

Answer:

\textbf{The slope of the parallel line is given by $ \frac{-2}{3} $}\\

Step-by-step explanation:

\textup{The slope of any two parallel lines are equal and they only differ in their $y- intercepts$. }\\\textup{Given $y = \frac{-2}{3}x + \frac{1}{3} $}\\\textup{This is  comparable to $y = mx + c$, where $m$ is the slope of that line.}\\\textup{Therefore, the slope of the given line and any line parallel to it is $ \frac{-2}{3}$.}

How do you rewrite an equation by completing the square?<br> x^2+10x+21=0
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+10x+21=0

x²+10x+(10/2)²-(10/2)²+21=0

x²+10x+25-25+21=0

(x+5)²-4=0

(x+5)²=4

(x+y)²=(x+y)(x+y)=x(x+y)+y(x+y)=x²+xy+xy+y²=x²+2xy+y²

(x+y)²=x²+2xy+y²

coefficient of x=2y

y²=[(coefficient of x)/2]²=(2y/2)²=y²
