Y=1/2x +5 Y=-3/2x-7 Find x and y

Mathematics

gayaneshka [121]3 years ago

I'm going to use the substitution method. 

If y = - 3/2 - 7, then:

1/2x + 5 = - 3/2x - 7

Combine like terms: 

4/2x = - 12. Mutiply both sides by 2/4 to get x = -12 (2/4)

Simplify to get:

x = - 6.

Plug - 6 back in for x in either equation.

Y = 1/2( - 6) + 5 which becomes Y = - 3 + 5.

X = - 6, Y = 2

arlik [135]

First, we need to find the total fraction of her raisins she used:

1/4 + 3/8 = 2/8 + 3/8

She used 5/8 of her supply.

Knowing this:

5/8x = 5

We multiply by 8 (the LCD)

5x = 40

x = 8

Her supply was 8 pounds, and after making the food, she now has 3 pounds
