Answer:

(x, y) = (8, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can substitute for x in the first equation:

3(-3y -1) +3y = 15

-6y = 18 . . . . . add 3 and simplify

y = -3 . . . . . . . divide by -6

x = -3(-3) -1 = 8 . . . . find x using the second equation

The solution to this system of equations is (x, y) = (8, -3).

Can anyone tell me what x equals in this scenario. 3/4x=2x-5

Dvinal [7]

Hey There!

The answer to your problem is $x=4$

Subtract 2x from both sides

$3/4x-2x=2x-5-2x$

$-5/4x=-5$

Multiply both sides by 4/(-5)

$(4/-5)*(-5/4)$ x $=(4/-5)*(-5)$

Explanation:

The function is $y>-\frac{1}{3} x+5$

To graph the function, let us find the x and y intercepts.

To find x-intercept, let us substitute y=0 in the function $y>-\frac{1}{3} x+5$

$\begin{aligned}0 &=-\frac{1}{3} x+5 \\-5 &=-\frac{1}{3} x \\x &=15\end{aligned}$

Thus, the x-intercept is $(15,0)$

To find the y-intercept, let us substitute x=0, we get,

$\begin{aligned}&y=-\frac{1}{3}(0)+5\\&y=5\end{aligned}$

Thus, the y-intercept is $(0,5)$

The graph has no asymptotes.

To plot the points in the graph, we need to substitute the values for x in the function $y>-\frac{1}{3} x+5$ , to find the y-values.

The points are $(-2,5.667),(-1,5.333),(1,4.667),(2,4.333),(3,4)$ . The image of the graph and table is attached below:

Consider the diagram. What is the length of segment AB?

B. 9 I think because it looks like it is bisected in the middle to cut into two equal parts. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks.
