Answer:

a=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

-2a-9=6a+15

Add 9 to both sides:

-2a-9+9=6a+15+9

-2a=6a+24

Subtract 6a from both sides:

-2a-6a=6a+24-6a

-8a=24

Divide both sides by -8:

\frac{-8a}{-8}=\frac{24}{-8}

a=-3

2x + 3y = 5x - y complete the missing value in the solution to the equation
Leto [7]

Answer:

The missing value is(0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

2x+3y=5x-y

Complete the missing value in the solution to the equation.

( ,0)

<u>Solution:</u>

We have given:

2x + 3y = 5x - y

Combine the like terms:

2x-5x= -y-3y

-3x = -4y

Both negative signs will be cancelled out by each other.

So we have,

3x = 4y

We have given y = 0

Then

3x = 4*0

3x= 0

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3 = 0/3

x = 0

y=0

Therefore missing value is(0,0)

HELP NEED ASAP FOR TOMORROW ITS FOR MY HOMEWORK!! ILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF RIGHT!!​
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

  y ≥ -x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

The solid line has a slope of -1 and a y-intercept of 2, so its equation in slope-intercept form is ...

  y = -x +2

The shaded area is above this line, and the line is part of the solution set, so we want an inequality that has "y" and the comparison symbol in this order: "y ≥" or "≤ y".

We already have an equation with "y" on the left, above, so we just need to introduce the comparison symbol:

  y ≥ -x +2

Another way to write this is ...

  x + y ≥ 2

Which line represents the direct variation equation y = 1/2x?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1/ x must pass through the origin because when x = 0, y = 0.

So its either B or C.

A positive slope rises to the right ( 1/2  is positive), so its C.

You can also see that the slope of C is 1/2 because it passes through the points (0.0) and (2, 1).
