4x - 3y = -11
-7x - 8y = 6
We need to cancel out one of the variables so let's multiply the first equation by 8 and the second by 3 and aim to cancel y.
32x - 24y = -88
-21x - 24y = 18
Now we subtract,
53x = -106
x = -2
3y = 4x + 11 = 4(-2) + 11 = 3
y = 1
Answer: (x,y)=(-2,1)
Check:
4(-2) -3(1) = -8 - 3 = -11, good
-7(-2) - 8(1) = 14 - 8 = 6, good
Well, yes and no.
Yes, because the straight line needs to pass through a number greater than 0, and 1 is obviously greater than 0.
However, y = x + 1 is not the same as y = x.
hope this helps.! let me know if it's in any way confusing..
I'd be happy to help!
Asheville had about 20 more inches of rain and it rained for about 40 more days than Wichita
subtract both rainfall and days for Wichita from the same quantities in Asheville
47.71 - 28.61 = 19.1 , about 20 inches
124 - 85 = 39, about 40
both quantities rounded to the nearest 10
Answer: ~27.5
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't know about all the geometry terms, but since a line is 180°, and SE makes 1 right angle (90°), the other side is also 90° (180-90=90).
This means you have a right triangle with sides 15 and 23 and unknown hypotenuse AS.
Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(15^2) + (23^2) = AS^2
sqrt( 225 + 529 ) = AS
AS = 27.459
8x-4=2x+35
8x-2x=35+4
6x=39
X=39/6
