We can solve this system of equations using substitution.
2y + 2x = 8
Solve for x.
2x = -2y + 8
Divide all terms by 2.
x = -y + 4
Take the equation x = -y + 4 and substitute it into the second system of equation.
2y - 4x = 2
2y - 4(-y + 4) = 2
Simplify by distributing.
2y + 4y - 16 = 2
Combine like terms.
6y - 16 = 2
6y = 18
y = 3
Now that you know the numerical value of y, substitute y with 3 in both equations to find x.
1) 2y + 2x = 8
2(3) + 2x = 8
6 + 2x = 8
2x = 2
x = 1
2) 2y - 4x = 2
2(3) - 4x = 2
6 - 4x = 2
-4x = -4
x = 1
The value of x is 1, and the value of y is 3.
Solution: B) (1, 3)
Answer:
y = -7/2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope intercept form of a line is
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = -7/2 x+b
Substitute the point into the equation
-4 = -7/2(2) +b
-4 = -7+b
Solving for b
-4+7 = -7+b+7
3 = b
The equation is y = -7/2x+3
Answer:
B. cost(time)
Step-by-step explanation:
In the information given above, you can eliminate choices "A," and "D," since they're just using the cost of a repair and the time the mechanic works. This leaves us with either "B," or "C." The correct answer is "B," because the cost of the repair depends on whatever is inside the parenthesis (the time).
