Y=1/2x -3 find the x coordinate of the point whose y
coordinate is 5
y = 5. Write the equation as:
1/2F2x - 3 = 5
multiply both sides by 2, and you have
x - 6 = 10
x = 10 + 6
x - 16
Check solution in original equation, replace x with 16
y = 1/2F2(16) - 3
y = 8 - 3
y = 5
Answer:
Sum: 17 + 11 = 28
Difference: 17 - 11 = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of x and y is 28. In other words, x plus y equals 28 and can be written as equation A:
x + y = 28
The difference between x and y is 6. In other words, x minus y equals 6 and can be written as equation B:
x - y = 6
Now solve equation B for x to get the revised equation B:
x - y = 6
x = 6 + y
Then substitute x in equation A from the revised equation B and then solve for y:
x + y = 28
6 + y + y = 28
6 + 2y = 28
2y = 22
y = 11
Now we know y is 11. Which means that we can substitute y for 11 in equation A and solve for x:
x + y = 28
x + 11 = 28
X = 17
Summary: The sum of two numbers is 28 and their difference is 6. What are the two numbers? Answer: 17 and 11 as proven here:
Sum: 17 + 11 = 28
Difference: 17 - 11 = 6
Answer:
$0.21
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first let's find the cost of a single cup.
16/13.60 = 1/0.85
Now, we know that each cup is approximately $0.85. Next, we must convert cups into quarts. 1 cup = 0.25 quarts.
1/0.85 = 0.25/0.21

hope it helps
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 9^x-3=9^3
Let's set up an equation.
smaller number = x
larger number = 2x - 5
Now set up the equation so that the larger number plus the smaller number adds up to 43.
x + 2x - 5 = 43
3x - 5 = 43 ( I added the x and 2x)
3x = 48 ( I added 5 to both sides)
x = 16 (I divided both sides by 3)
Now let's check it. Substitute 16 for every time there is an x.
16 + 2(16) - 5 = 43
16 + 32 - 5 = 43
48 - 5 = 43
43 = 43
It checks. x is equal to 16, so that means:
smaller number = 16
larger number = 27
Hope this helps =)
