Answer:

x = -1/4, y = 5/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the absolute value equation y = |x - 1| the value of y must be positive.

Solving x - 1 = 3x + 2 :

2x = -3

x = -3/2  and y = -5/2  so  x= -3/2 is not a solution.

x - 1 xcan also be negative so we have the equation

- (x - 1) = 3x + 2

1 - x = 3x + 2

-1 = 4x

x = -1/4  

y = 1 - - 1/4 = 5/4.

Wilma works at a bird sanctuary and stores birdseed in plastic containers. She has 2 small containers that hold 8 pounds of bird
Amanda [17]

Answer:

 60 lbs left over

Step-by-step explanation:  Since the small containers hold 8 lbs each you multiply 8 by 2 since there are 2 containers. Same for the large, multiply 9 by 12 because each container holds 12 lbs and there is 9 containers. Then, you subtract 4 from that total because she already used 4 lbs.

x=(2*8)+(9*12)-4 Multiply

x=16+108-4 Simplify

x=120

So, before she fills the bird feeders she has 120 lbs of bird seed. There are 30 bird feeders and since they hold 2 lbs each you multiply 30 and 2. Then you subtract that from the 120 lbs because she is filling the bird feeders with that seed.

120- (30*2)

120-60= 60 lbs left over

Yes,I need help with another one of these , the number that got cut off is 24 btw.
V125BC [204]

Since, PS and QR are parallel, we know that <QRP is equal to <RPS.  Therefore, we can solve for y by setting the two equations equal to each other.

5y+14=8y-13

<em>*Subtract 5y from both sides to isolate the variable*</em>

14=3y-13

<em>*Add 13 to both sides*</em>

27=3y

<em>*Divide both sides by 3*</em>

9=y


Now, plug in 9 for y in the equation 8y-13 to find the measure of that angle.

8(9)-13

<RPS=59


Now, the sum of the angles in any triangle is equal to 180 degrees.  We can use this knowledge to set up an equation to solve for x.

3x+2x+1+59=180

<em>*Combine like terms*</em>

5x+60=180

<em>*Subtract 60 from both sides*</em>

5x=120

<em>*Divide both sides by 5*</em>

x=24


Now, we can find <RSP by pluggin 24 in for x.

2(24)+1

48+1

<RSP=49 degrees


Hope this helps!!

Help me &amp; I'll help you in return??Need expert answer
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

(y-24)=-7(x+4)  

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line we must have a slope and a point. To find the slope we use the slope formula and substitute (x,y) points in it as shown below:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{24--53}{-4-7}=\frac{24+53}{-4+-7}=\frac{77}{-11}=\frac{-7}{1}=-7

Now that we have the slope, plug in the slope and choose one point to plug into the point slope formula. Use the point-slope form to write the equation, then simplify and convert into the slope intercept form.  

(y-24)=-7(x--4)

(y-24)=-7(x+4)
