Mathematics

laila [671]3 years ago

Step-by-step explanation:

use substitution method so it will now look like

8x + 5(-4x) = 24

8x + (-20x) = 24

-12x = 24 (divide both sides by 12)

-x = 2 (multiply both sides by negative 1)

x = -2

substitute to find y

y= -4(-2)

=8

Answer:

x=-2\\y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+5y=24\\y=-4x

We already have y in terms of, so the easiest way to do is by plugging that value in the first equation.

8x+5y=24\\8x+5(-4x)=24\\8x-20x=24\\-12x=24\\x=\frac{24}{-12} \\x=-2

After having found the value of x, replace it in the second equation to find y.

y=-4(-2)\\y=8

I really need help. please help
Anna [14]
I'm pretty sure the answer to A would be this: the common point that satisfies both equations (where they intersect) can be shown AS 4^(-x) = 8^(-x-1). 

The answer to B is forming a table. This is quite easier than you think :D.

Start with x on one side (3) and go all the way down to -3 like this:

(x)    4^-x    8^-x-1
-3      64       (Do the same with this)
-2      16
-1       4
0        1
1       1/4
2     .0625 
3   .015625  

So basically you just fill in the x variable with every number between 3 and -3. After that, it's just a bit of math and you've done it!

C is a bit misguided. I think it would be quite simple to just use a graphing calculator, but you would have to actually input all the x and y values from the table. After that, you will have a graph.

I hope I helped! Good luck and good day!
