Answer:

3 + (-x) or -x + 3 they are the same just different ways to write them.

Step-by-step explanation:

7 - 4 = 3

there is only one variable so -x stays the same.

6x + 4y = 24
2x - 4y = -8

We will use the addition method in solving this system of equation.

    6x + 4y = 24
+ (2x - 4y = -8)
    8x + 0 = 16

8x = 16
x = 16/8
x = 2

Let us substitute x by its value to get the value of y.

6x + 4y = 24 
→ 6(2) + 4y = 24
12 + 4y = 24
4y = 24 - 12
4y = 12
y = 12/4
y = 3

2x - 4y = - 8 
→ 2(2) - 4y = - 8
4 - 4y = - 8
-4y = - 8 - 4
-4y = -12
y = -12/-4
y = 3

So x = 2 and y = 3. → (2,3)

The true statement among the choices are:

A) The ordered pair that is the solution to the system lies in Quadrant I . 
<span>B) The y-coordinate of the solution is 3.
</span><span>D) The x-coordinate of the solution is 2.</span>

Two sidewalks in a park are represented by lines on a coordinate grid. Two points on each of the lines are shown in the tables.
algol [13]

Answer:

y = 2x + 1 ;

y - 3 = - 3(x - 1) ; y = - 3x + 6 ;

Independent ;

(1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Sidewalk 1:

x __ y

2 _ 5

0 _ 1

Sidewalk 2:

x __ y

1 _ 3

3 _ -3

Equation for sidewalk 1 in slope - intercept form:

Slope intercept form:

y = mx + c

c = intercept ; m = slope

m = (change in y / change in x)

m = (1 - 5) / (0 - 2) = - 4 / - 2 = 2

Y intercept ; value of y when x = 0

(0, 1) ; y = 1

Hence, c = 1

y = 2x + 1

Sidewalk 2:

Point slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

m = slope

m = = (-3 - 3) / (3 - 1) = - 6/2 = - 3

Point (x1, y1) = (1, 3)

y - 3 = - 3(x - 1)

To slope intercept form:

y - 3 = - 3(x - 1)

y - 3 = - 3x + 3

y = - 3x + 3 + 3

y = - 3x + 6

Since the slope of both lines are different, intersection will be at single point and will have a single solution. This makes it independent.

Using substitution method :

y = 2x + 1 - - - (1)

y = - 3x + 6 - - - (2)

Substitute (1) into (2)

2x + 1 = - 3x + 6

2x + 3x = 6 - 1

5x = 5

x = 1

From (1)

y = 2(1) + 1

y = 2 + 1

y = 3

Coordinate of the point of intersection = (1, 3)

You are a landscaper, and you are designing a fence to enclose part of a yard. The section to be enclosed is rectangular and has
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

If you draw this out, you can see that total fence equation will be:

2L + 4W = 1200

Simplify, divide by 2

L + 2W = 600

L = (600-2W)

:

Area;

A = L*W

Substitute (600-2W) for L:

A = (600-2W)*W

A = -2W^2 + 600W; a quadratic equation

 

:

The dimension that will produce the greatest area will be the "axis of symmetry

which is: x = %28-b%29%2F%282a%29

:

In this equation a=-2, b=600

W = %28-600%29%2F%282%2A-2%29

W = %28-600%29%2F%28-4%29

W = +150 ft is the width

:

Find the length

L = 600 - 2(150)

L = 300 ft is the length

:

We can say the a field 300 by 150 gives he greatest area

:

This illustrated on a graph where y axis is the area and x axis is the width:
