Use linear combination method to solve this systemof equations. What is the value of x?

Using the linear combination method, we can add 3x+7y=31 and -3x-2y=-1 together, which makes 5y=30.


Just divide both sides by 5, and your answer will be y = 6.



To solve for x, just substitute 6 in y in either equation and solve for x:


-3x-2(6)=-1\\ -3x-12=-1\\ -3x=11\\ x=-\frac{11}{3} =-3\frac{2}{3}



In short, the correct answer is B. -3 2/3

How do find the measures of angles with a vertex inside or outside circle?
pantera1 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure %: An angle whose vertex is in the interior of a circle The measure of angle 1 is equal to half the sum of the measures of arcs AB and DE. When an angle's vertex lies outside of a circle, and its sides don't intersect with the circle, we don't necessarily know anything about the angle.

What is the opposite of 4.25
Margaret [11]

Answer:

-4.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The given number is 4.25 and we have to find the opposite of this number.

Opposite of a number is also known as additive inverse and it is defined as "if the sum of two numbers is zero then two numbers are opposite or additive inverse of each other"

For example, if x is a number then its opposite is -x.

and hence, x + (-x) = 0

Using this fact, we can conclude that the opposite of 4.25 is -4.25 because

4.25 + (-4.25)

= 4.25 - 4.25

=0
