Answer:
x = -2
y = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Since they already gave y as -3x +4, you will then have to substitute that amount into the formula
9x + 5y = 32
By doing that you get
9x +5(-3x+4) = 32
9x -15x +20 = 32
Then, you ill take 20 to the other side to subtract 32, which will get you
-6x = 12
Then, you will get x = -2
Then substitute that for the equation
y = -3x + 4
You will get
y = -3(-2) + 4,
You will get y as 10
SO then your final answer is x = -2, y = 10
0.85 written as a fraction in simplest form is 17/20
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
For this exercise it is important to remember that a Right triangle is a triangle that has an angle that measures 90 degrees.
According to the Altitude Rule, given a Right triangle, if you draw an altitude from the vertex of the angle that measures 90 degrees (The right angle) to the hypotenuse, the measure of that altitude is the geometric mean between the measures of the two segments of the hypotenuse.
In this case, you can identify that the altitude that goes from the vertex of the right angle (
) to the hypotenuse of the triangle, is:

Then, based on the Altitude Rule, you can set up the following proportion:

According to the Leg Rule, each leg is the mean proportional between the hypotenuse and the portion of the hypotenuse that is located directly below that leg of the triangle.
Knowing this, you can set up the following proportions:

Answer:
first is -3, second number is 0
Step-by-step explanation:
you have two equations x+3=y and 4*x+12=5*y
Use the first one and write y in terms of x in the second equation:
4*x+12=5*(x+3)
4*x+12=5*x+15
12=5*x-4*x+15
12=x+15
x=-3
