2x+3y=12 x-y=6 solve the following system equations

Mathematics

IgorC [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

(6, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few different methods to solve system of equations.  For this problem, you can use substitution by solving one of the equations for a variable and then substituting this expression into the other equation to solve for the remaining variable:

x - y = 6, add 'y' to both sides to solve for 'x':  x - y + y = 6 + y or x = 6 + y

Using the expression '6 + y' for the value of 'x' in the second equation:

2x + 3y = 12 or 2(6+y) + 3y = 12 or 12 + 2y + 3y = 12 or 12 + 5y = 12

Subtract 12 from both sides: 12 + 5y - 12 = 12 - 12 or 5y = 0 so y = 0

Now that you know the value of 'y', you can solve for 'x':

x = 6 + 0 or x = 6

Put the values of 'x' and 'y' into an ordered pair: (6,0).

Answer:

h(x) = -x^2 - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

well y, h(x), f(x), n(x), or any other something of x is all the same thing y.

So if f(x) is -x^2 - 1,

Then h(x) is also -x^2 - 1

Mrs travis wants to have the clown deliver balloons to her secretary's office. Clowns R Fun charges $1.25 per balloon and $6 for
marysya [2.9K]

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


6 balloons.


Explanation:


Let x represent the number of balloons purchased.


We will call the function for Clowns R Fun c(x):

c(x) = 1.25x+6


We will call the function for Singing Balloons s(x):

s(x) = 1.95x+2


We want the amount for Clowns R Fun, c(x) to be less:

c(x) < s(x)

1.25x+6 < 1.95x+2


Subtract 1.25x from each side:

1.25x+6-1.25x < 1.95x+2-1.25x

6 < 0.7x+2


Subtract 2 from each side:

6-2 < 0.7x+2-2

4 < 0.7x


Divide each side by 0.7:

4/0.7 < 0.7x/0.7

5.7 < x

x > 5.7

Deandra is doing her math homework. Out of 24 problems total, she completed the first 12 problems in 1 hour and the last 12 in 3
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

6 problems per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Total problems = 24

she completed the first 12 problems in 1 hour

The last 12 in 3 hours.

Total time = 1 hour + 3 hours

= 4 hours

unit rate for all 24 problems = total number of problems / total time taken

= 24 problems / 4 hours

= 6 problems per hour
