I dont know for a fact but it could be 0.70710678118 but im not sure
I'm going to use the substitution method.
If y = - 3/2 - 7, then:
1/2x + 5 = - 3/2x - 7
Combine like terms:
4/2x = - 12. Mutiply both sides by 2/4 to get x = -12 (2/4)
Simplify to get:
x = - 6.
Plug - 6 back in for x in either equation.
Y = 1/2( - 6) + 5 which becomes Y = - 3 + 5.
X = - 6, Y = 2
Answer: 7(3m - 7n)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Factor each term then see what value(s) they have in common:
21m - 49n
∧ ∧
3 · 7 · m 7 · 7 · n
Both terms have a 7 in common. What is left over after removing the 7?
21m: 7(3m)
49n: 7(7n)
GCF: 7 Leftovers: 3m <em>and</em> 7n
Factored form of expression is: 7(3m - 7n)
Answer:
C. 500 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
If we want to make it all equal, we can divide the 2,000 ft by 4 because we have 4 equal descents.
2000 ÷ 4 = 500
He should travel <u>500 feet</u> in each descent.
Let's solve this system of equations through substitution.
We have these two equations.
-7x-2y=14
6x+6y=18
Now let divide the second equation by 6.
6x+6y=18 ----> x+y=3
Next, let us move y to the right side of the equation.
x+y=3 -------> x=3-y (x equals 3-y)
Because we found out that what x is in terms of y, we can input that in for every instance of x in this equation below.
-7x-2y=14 becomes -7(3-y)-2y=14 (Why? Because x equals 3-y!)
We have a one variable equation now and can solve for y.
-7(3-y)-2y=14
-21+7y-2y=14
5y=35
y=7
Plug in 7 for y in any equation to find x.
x+y=3
x+7=3
x=-4
answer: x=-4, y=7
