Answer:
(–19, 55)
Step-by-step explanation:
y = –3x – 2 equation 1
5x + 2y = 15 equation 2
using equation 1 in equation 2 we have:
5x + 2(–3x – 2) = 15
5x –6x – 4 = 15
-x = 15+4
x=-19
using equation 1:
y = -3(-19)- 2
y= 57-2
y= 55
Answer:
x = 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
(7x + -5) + -1(3x + -2) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(-5 + 7x) + -1(3x + -2) = 0
Remove parenthesis around (-5 + 7x)
-5 + 7x + -1(3x + -2) = 0
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 7x + -1(-2 + 3x) = 0
-5 + 7x + (-2 * -1 + 3x * -1) = 0
-5 + 7x + (2 + -3x) = 0
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 2 + 7x + -3x = 0
Combine like terms: -5 + 2 = -3
-3 + 7x + -3x = 0
Combine like terms: 7x + -3x = 4x
-3 + 4x = 0
Solving
-3 + 4x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '3' to each side of the equation.
-3 + 3 + 4x = 0 + 3
Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
0 + 4x = 0 + 3
4x = 0 + 3
Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3
4x = 3
Divide each side by '4'.
x = 0.75
Simplifying
x = 0.75
R/9 = -21
Multiply by 9
r = -189
Answer: $8470
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, you can substitute 4 for x:

Mikayla's scooter is worth around $8470 after 4 years.
It was originally worth 13,500 dollars and depreciated by 11% every year.
