Answer:

x = -2, y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a systems of equations. Using substitution, we solve for a single variable, plug it in to solve for the other, and solve that one back in to solve for the original. Let's solve it.


5x + y = -10

Subtract 5x from both sides.

y = -5x - 10

Now that we have y isolated, we can plug it in to the other equation.

4x - 7(-5x-10) = -8

Distribute.

4x + 35x + 70 = -8

Subtract 70 from both sides and simplify.

39x = -78

Divide both sides by 39.

x = -2


Now that we have x as -2, we plug it in to the original.


5(-2) + y = -10

Simplify.

-10 + y = -10

Add 10 to both sides.

y = 0


x = -2, y = 0

C. 110. This is because all triangles add up to equal 180*. So you add the two angles you have and subtract from 180.

Use slopes and y-intercepts to determine if the lines y=−x2+14 and 3x−4y=−1 are parallel.
Keith_Richards [23]
Answer: the lines are not parallel.


Explanation: if you isolate the x in 3x^2-4y=-1, the equation is y=3/4x^2+1/4


So, they are not parallel because the slope is not the same.

A circle and a square can intersect at how many points
SSSSS [86.1K]

If the circle has the same center as the diagonals of a square and the radius of the circle is smaller than 1/2 the diagonal of the square but larger than 1/2 the length of the side of a square, then there are 8 points of intersection -- 2 at each corner of the square.

If the radius of the circle is smaller than 1/2 the side length of the square and the center is as described above, there are no points of intersection.

If the circle is located outside the square it can have 1 tangent point or 2 intersection points depending on the location conditions of the circle in relation to the square.
