1 answer:

8 0

Answer: -7

Form your equation. Let x be the number.
6x + 10 = 4x - 4

Solve.
6x + 10 = 4x - 4 Subtract 4x from both sides
2x + 10 = -4 Subtract 10 from both sides
2x = -14 Divide by 2 to both sides
x = -7 Answer!

Slove the simoltanous equation by using substitution or elimination method 5x-3y=1 3x+2y=1<br>

xxTIMURxx [149]

<u>By substitution method </u>

5x - 3y =1

3x + 2y = 1

_____o____o____

$5x - 3y = 1 \\ 5x = 1 + 3y \\ x = \frac{1 + 3y}{5}$

______o____o_____

$3x + 2y = 1 \\ 3( \frac{1 + 3y}{5} ) + 2y = 1 \\ \frac{3 + 9y}{5} + 2y = 1 \\ \frac{3 +9y + 10y}{5} = 1 \\ \frac{3 + 19y}{5} = 1 \\ 3 + 19y = (1)(5) \\ 3 + 19y = 5 \\ 19y = 5 - 3 \\ 19y = 2 \\ y = \frac{2}{19}$

______o_____o____

$x = \frac{1 + 3y}{5} = \frac{1 + 3 \frac{2}{19} }{5} \\ x = \frac{1 + \frac{6}{19} }{5} = \frac{ \frac{19 + 6}{19} }{5} = \frac{ \frac{25}{19} }{5} \\ x = \frac{25}{19} \div 5 \\ x = \frac{25}{19} \times \frac{1}{5} \\ x = \frac{5}{19}$

Select the initial amount for y=2x+6 a)x b)y c)6 D)3 e)2

guajiro [1.7K]

Hey there!
It's c.
The initial amount is also the y intercept. If x equals 0, y = 6, which is the y-intercept or b in the slope-intercept form y = mx+b.
Hope this helps!
