Answer:

x = 9 and y = -13

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + y =50.... eq 1

4x + y =23....eq 2

Subtract eq 2 from eq 1

7x + y = 50

4x + y = 23

This becomes;

7x - 4x + y - y= 50 -23

3x = 27

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x; 3

x = 9

Slot in the value of x in eq 1

7 (9) + y = 50

63 + y = 50

Subtract 63 from both sides

63 - 63 + y = 50 - 63

y = -13

Line segment JK has endpoints J(2,-3) and K(-4,6). what are the coordinates of the midpoint of JK

Leni [432]

Answer:

The midpoint is (-1, 1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, average the x coordinates of the endpoints

(2+-4)/2 = -2/2 = -1

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, average the y coordinates of the endpoints

(-3+6)/2 = 3/2 = 1.5

The midpoint is (-1, 1.5)

Denise earns $30 an hour. She works 40 hours per week. A. Create and solve an expression to represent how much money Denise earn

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

$1,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the hours Denise works in a week, and y be her earnings per week.

y = ($30/hr)(x)

For a 40 hour week, Denise earns:

y = ($30/hr)(40 hr/week)

y = $1,200 in a week.
