Solve the system of equations

Mathematics
1 answer:
insens350 [35]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 3, y = 1 is the solution of the given system.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given system of equations is:

y = -x  + 4   ...... (1)

y = x - 2     ..........  (2)

Now, to find the solution of the system, SUBSTITUTE the value of y from equation  (1) in to the equation (2). We get ,

y = x - 2   ⇒   -x  + 4  = x - 2  ( as from (1), y = -x + 4)

or,  -x -x = -2 -4

or, - 2 x = -6 ⇒   x = 6/2  = 3

or, x = 3

⇒  y = x - 2 = 3 - 2 = 1

⇒ y = 1

Hence, x = 3, y = 1 is the solution of the given system.

The equation for line g can be written as y = 2/9x + 10.
valina [46]

Answer:

y=2/9x-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

since line h is parallel to line g, this means that line h has the same slope as line g.

line h's slope would be 2/9.

to find the y-intercept, plug (-3, -1) into the equation y=2/9x+b. -3 will represent x and -1 will represent y:

y=2/9x+b

-1=2/9(-3)+b

Then, solve for b:

-1=2/9(-3)+b

-1=-6/9+b

b=-1/3

so, the equation for line g is: y=2/9x-1/3

Raquel and Van live in two different cities. As part of a project, they each record the lowest prices for a gallon of gas at gas
mylen [45]

Based on the information given, the true statement true about their gas-price data is A. Raquel’s data are most likely closer to $3.42 than Van’s data are to $3.78.

<h3>Solution to the gas-price data.</h3>

It should be noted that a standard deviation simply measures how dispersed the data will be in relation to the mean.

From the complete question, the mean of Raquel's data is given as 3.42 while the standard deviation is given as 0.07. On the other hand, the mean of Van's data is given as 3.78 while the standard deviation is given as 0.23.

Therefore, it can be deduced that Raquel’s data are most likely closer to $3.42 than Van’s data are to $3.78.

What is the solution set for [-x]=10
Lesechka [4]
X = -10

Because it is the "absolute value" of "10"

Here's why

-X - 10 = 0, right ?

So, now we have to add a positive 10 to each of our sides to get one step closer to our answer

-X + 10 = 0 ⬅️cancel this
0 + 10 = 10 ⬅️keep this

We can multiply by a negative 1 (-1 )

10(-1) = -10
0(-1) = -0

So that's how we found out that X = -10

At the dog show there are 4 times as many boxes as spaniels. if there are a total of 30 dogs how many dogs are spaniels
Fiesta28 [93]
So the equation would be 4x+x=30. So since they have the same variable, x and 4x, you add them together to get 5x=30. Then you divide by both sides and get x=6. So there are 6 spaniels.
