Answer:

\huge\boxed{(2,4)}

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5y = 16 ------------------(1)

-5x -2y = 2   ------------------(2)

<u>Multiplying (1) by 5 </u>

5(2x+5y) = 16*5

10x+25y = 80 ----------------(3)

<u>Multiplying (2) by 2</u>

2(-5x-2y) = 2*2

-10x - 4y = 4 -----------------(4)

Adding Eq. (3) and (4)

10x + 25y -10x -4y = 80 + 4

25y - 4y = 84

21y = 84

Dividing both sides by 21

y = 4

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Now, Putting y = 4 in Eq. (1)

2x + 5(4) = 16

2x + 20 = 16

2x = 20 - 16

2x = 4

Dividing both sides by 2

x = 2

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Ordered Pair = (x,y) = (a,b) = (2,4)

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!

Find the value of x.
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

x = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles in a quadrilateral add to 360°

First work out the interior missing angle

360° - ( 40° + 80° + 110° ) = 130°

Angles on a straight line add to 180° so

180° - 130° = 50°

The point (–3, –5) is on the graph of a function. What equation must be true regarding the function?
Komok [63]

The equation that must be true regarding the function is a. f(–3) = –5

<h3>How to explain the information?</h3>

The point (–3, –5) is on the graph of a function. Which equation must be true regarding the function?

a. f(–3) = –5

b. f(–3, –5) = –8

c. f(–5) = –3

d. f(–5, –3) = –2

The question is what does the point (-3, -5) correspond to on the graph of the function.

If we have a point on a graph in the Cartesian coordinate system then that point consists of coordinates (x, y). In other words, y=f(x) and x so (x, f(x)) where x is a x-coordinate and y=f(x) is y-coordinate.

Hence if we have a point (-3, -5) the corresponding coordinates are x=-3 and y=f(x)=-5.

Therefore the correct answer is f(-3)=-5.

Noah says that 9X minus 2X plus 4X is equivalent to 3X because the subtraction sign tells us to subtract everything that comes a
lesantik [10]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Noah thinks :

9x - 2x + 4x = 3x   as the subtraction sign after 9x tells us to subtract everything that comes after 9x.

This is wrong as according to the BODMAS rule, we have to do the addition operation first and then followed by subtraction operation.

That is

⇒ 9x - 2x + 4x

⇒ (9x -2x)+ 4x

⇒ 7x + 4x

⇒ 11x

Therefore the answer to the equation is 11x and not 3x.
