If your trying to get Y=mx + b the answer would be 1. Y= x+4 2. Y= -1/3x + 4/3

So u want to get rid of y right?
ok.. so these r the equations:
-x+y=4
x+3y=4

now the easiest way we can go is by multiplying the first equation by negative 3 to cancel out the y's
so it would look like this:
-3(-x+y=4) => 3x-3y=-12

no we can eliminate the y's
(3x-3y=-12) +(x+3y=4)   =   4x=-8

now divide by 4 so we can get x by itself

4x=8
x=2

we have x. plug in to 2nd equation to solve for y

(2)+3y=4
-2         -2
3y=2
y=2/3

hope that helps :)

A stack of boards is 21 inches high. Each board is 1 3/2 inches thick. How many boards are there?
Elena-2011 [213]
If the stack is 21ins and each board is 1 3/2 ins thick that means you 21/(1 3/2) so you end up getting 8.4. Because you can't have a part of a board you round the number down to 8 boards.

Write a rule for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence a8=-15 a17=-78
vivado [14]

Answer:

Find the 40th term for the arithmetic sequence in which

a8=60 and a12=48 .

Substitute 60 for a8 and 48 for a12 in the formula

an=a1+(n−1)d  to obtain a system of linear equations in terms of a1 and d .

a8=a1+(8−1)d→60=a1+7da12=a1+(12−1)d→48=a1+11d

Subtract the second equation from the first equation and solve for d .

12=−4d−3=d

Then 60=a1+7(−3) .  Solve for a .

60=a1−2181=a1

Now use the formula to find a40 .

a40=81+39(−3)=81−117=−36 .

A baseball is hit 3 feet above the ground at 80 feet per second and at an angle of with respect to the ground. Find the maximum
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

53

Step-by-step explanation:

i used an angle of 45 degrees.

Distance from ground = 3feets

Angle = 45⁰

U is the initial velocity = 80ft/sec

g = 32

The question wants us to vfind maximum height

We have

r(t) = (80cos45⁰)ti + [3 + 80sin45⁰]t - 0.5(32)t²

We know cos 45 is also sin45 = 1/√2

r(t) = (40√2)ti + [3+40√2]t - 16t²

When we differentiate with respect to t:

r'(t) = (40√2)i + (40√2 - 32t)

= 40√2 =32t

t = 40√2/32

t= 20√2/16

We put the value of t into (3 + 40√2)t -16t²

When we substitute and simplify this we have

3 + 56.57 + 1.77 -16 +8

= 53.34

Which is approximately 53.
