P = (1/100 , 1/10)
b = 1/20
Equate both equations. Use the substitution y=/x (/ means square root). Obtain an equation in terms of y. 5y2 - y + b = 0 Use b2 - 4ac = 0 for tangent. You'll get the answer for b then replace in equation, overall 5y2 - y + 1/20 = 0. Use the quadratic formula to solve for y. You'll obtain y = 1/10 as answer. Using the substitution y=/x, x=y2, x = (1/10)2 = 1/100, /x = 1/10. 5y2 and (1/10)2 are ...to the square....5y to the power of 2.

6x - 2y = 26<br><br> 2x + 3y = 5<br><br> Solve for X and Y
Softa [21]

Answer:

y is equal to -1

x is equal to 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you would do is multiply the bottom equation by a negative 3. You will get - 6x - 9y = -15. Keep the top equation the same. Both of the 6x's cancel. You then get -11y = 11 so y is equal to negative 1.

Since you have Y, you can now plug that in to any equation to find the value of x. -6x - 2(-1) = 26. You're left with 4. Plug both of the values into each equation to double check.

A new price of an item is $39.32. The percent increase was 16%. What was the original price?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

let x =the original price

then 116x/100=$39.32

116x=100×39.32

116x=3932

divide both sides by 116

116x/116=3932/116

x=33.89655

(2dp)

x=33.90

Find the equation of the line passing through the points (3,-2) and (4,6) in slope intercept form.​
noname [10]

Hey!

------------------------------------------------

They already give us the slope, so we can solve the y-intercept.

We can use (3, -2).

y = 8x + b

-2 = 8(3) + b

-2 = 24 + b

-2 - 24 = 24 + b - 24

-26 = b

------------------------------------------------

Hence, the answer is \Large\boxed{\mathsf{y~=~8x~+~-26}}

------------------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
