First, rewrite the equation -2x+y=0 into y-mx+b format. This is y=2x+0. We can then substitute this into our first equation.
3x-y=5
turns into
3x-2x=5
x=5
We can then plug in our value for x to find y.
3(5)-y=0
simplifies into
15-y=0
Simplify this to get that y=15
You can then plug these into the other equation ot make sure it's right.
-2(5)+15=5
-10+15=5
which is 5=5 (true)

So your answers are x=5 and y=15.

In order to use substitution, you need to isolate a variable on one of the equations:

-2x+y=0
y=2x

Then you plug that equation into the other equation. Since we isolated y, we plug in 2x for y in the other equation:

3x-(2x)=5
x=5

Then plug the value you found into any equation to solve for the other variable:

3(5)-y=5
15-y=5
-y=-10
y=10

So your answers are x=5, y=10

When Theresa walks at a pace of 88 steps per minute, it takes her 90 minutes to walk the trail. If she alters her pace to 33 ste
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: 33 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi to answer this question we have to write a proportion

Speed rate = 88 step per minute

Time = 90 minutes

So, the proportion is 88 step/min / 90 minutes

For 33 steps per minutes = 33 / x minutes

88/90 = 33/x

solving for x:

x= 33/ (88/90)

x = 33.75 = 33 minutes.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Count the total number of objects. That is the denominator, which goes under the line. Then, only count the stars. That number is the numerator, which goes on top.

Answer:

The answer is x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First you need to distribute the 3/4 * (x + 8). This looks like (3/4) * (x) + (3/4) * (8) = 9

2. Next you simplify the distributed equation, 3/4x + 6 = 9

3. Now subtract 6 from both sides, 3/4x = 3

4. Multiply both sides by 4/3, 4/x * 3/4x = 3 * 4/3

5. Simplify, x = 4
