Answer:
1) When x is 1, y is 4, and vice versa
2) When x is -6, y is 42, and when x is 7, y is 114
3) When x is -2, y is 2, and when x is 8, y is 42
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
which can be rearranged as 
.
Substituting this lone y into the first equation, you get:
Move everything to one side:
Factor:
2)
which can be rearranged as 
.
Let's use elimination this time and subtract the first equation from the second:
Factor:
3)
Let's set the two equations equal to each other through substitution:
Move everything to one side:
Factor:

Answer:
x is less than or equal to 0
Step-by-step explanation:
- you need to multiply both sides of the inequality by 5/2
- then you reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 5
- then you reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 2
- any expression multiplied by 0 equals 0
- so you get x is less than or equal to 0

Answer:
a) 16.25 centimeters
b) 6.8 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion for both of these problems.
a) Look at the longest side of each triangle. We can set up a fraction: 7.2/18. We can also set up a fraction for XZ and PR:
6.5/x
x represents the length you're trying to find.
Since the triangles are similar, we have an equation:
7.2/18=6.5/x
Cross multiply
16.25
XZ is 16.25 centimeters long.
b)
We can do same thing:
7.2/18=x/17
Cross multiply
6.8
QR is 6.8 centimeters long.
Hope this helps!
