Please help me with this problem! I am so confused: This system of equations shows x by itself on the left side of one equation.

Solve the system by substituting for x instead of y.
x = -y - 2
0.5x + y = 1

Answer:

x=-6

y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

x=-y-2        x=-y-2             x=-y-2         x=-y-2         x=-y-2   x=-4-2   x=-6

0.5x+y = 1  0.5(-y-2)+y=1  -0.5y-1+y=1  -y-2+2y=2  y=4       y=4       y=4

44/12 in simplest form
NeTakaya
The fraction 44/12 is equivalent1 to 3 2/3.
This fraction is a IMPROPER FRACTION once the absolute value of the top number or numerator (44) is greater than the absolute value of the bottom number or denomintor (12). So, the equivalent fraction is a MIXED NUMBER which is made up of a whole number (3) and proper fraction (2/3).
The fraction 44/12 is equal to 44÷12 and can also be expressed in decimal form as 3.666667.

The best thing to do is to found out the percentage that is faulty. 1% is equal to 10 faulty products, therefore, 0.5% is equal to 5. In order to out how many there are in 60,000, you need to simply multiply 5 by 60, which is 300. Therefore, 300 are faulty. Hope this helps :)

1. A set of weights includes a 5 lb barbell and 8 pairs of weight plates. Each pair, p,
lidiya [134]

Answer:

5 <= y <= 85

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lowest weight possible is 5lbs (just the barbell and no weights) the lowest point of the range is 5lbs (the y intercept when x = 0)

The highest weight possible is 85lbs since, there is only 8 pairs of weight plates (8 is the input value) and the pairs each weigh 10lbs (the slope of the graph) + 5lbs from the barbell (y-intercept).

Using the function given, if you input 8 as the x value, you get

85 = 10(8) + 5

So the highest value of the range is 85lbs, therefore the range is 5 <= y <= 85.
