−5x+4y=38 −x+2y=10 solve by elimination

Mathematics
1 answer:
tatyana61 [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

(-6, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + 4y - 38 = 0 (1) | -x +2y - 10 = 0 (2)

First i multiply the 2nd equation by -5, because i want the magnitude of the x coefficient to be the same but with opposite signs, because when i'll add the equations the x's are going to cancel.

(2) * (-5):

5x - 10y + 50 = 0 (2')

(1) + (2'):

-5x + 4y - 38 + 5x - 10y + 50 = 0

-6y + 12 = 0

y = 2

Use the second equation, before multiplying to find the x - solution.

-x + 2(2) - 10 = 0

-x + 4 - 10 = 0 | add 'x'  to both sides

x = -6

neonofarm [45]
7:2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one is to think about how often tacos are made. Tacos are made often. Now think about how often Wraps are made, not very often. After some research, the ratio is 7 burritos to 2 wraps. This would make the answer 7:2. Unfortunately tacos are more loved than Wraps.

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

first, put in (5x-4) for the x in g(x).

g(f(x))=(5x-4)^2 -1

now, FOIL and simplify.

25x^2-40x+16-1

25x^2-40x+15

now, plug in -1 for x.

25(-1)^2-40(-1)+15

25+40+15

What is the slope-intercept form for<br> y – 6 = 3 ( x− 1/3 )
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

y=3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

This is th eanswer because slope intercept form is always y=mx+b.

So, if you simplify the right side of the equation, you then get

y-6=3x-1, I got that because 3 multiplied by -1/3, you get -1.

Then you add 6 to both sides to isolate y by itself. So, now you have

y=3x+5.

Hope this is helpful
