We need to use the Point slope formula to find the slope so we label
(2 , -8);(-1 , 16) subtract
x1 y1 x2 y2. y2-y1/x2-x1
16-(-8)/-1-2 = 24/-3 = -8
meaning the slope of this line is (-8)

Find the solution of this system of equations. Separate the x- and y-values with a comma. x - 2y = -23 and x - y = 7
snow_lady [41]
Solve the following system using elimination:
{x - 2 y = -23 | (equation 1)
{x - y = 7 | (equation 2)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2:
{x - 2 y = -23 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = 30 | (equation 2)

Add 2 × (equation 2) to equation 1:
{x+0 y = 37 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = 30 | (equation 2)
Collect results:
Answer:  {x = 37 , y = 30

there are students in a school. This number is 15% more than it was last year. Calculate the number of students last year
ANTONII [103]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question isn't complete but let's help out by giving some values to the question.

Let's say there are 230 students in a school. This number is 15% more than it was last year. Calculate the number of students last year.

Let the number of students last year be x.

Since there's a 15% increase, this implies that (100% + 15%) = 115% of x equals to 230. This will be:

115% of x = 230

115% × x = 230

115/100 × x = 230

1.15x = 230

x = 230/1.15

x = 200

There were 200 students last year.

Just assign the missing values and use the above method and you'll get your answer.

Please solve these step-by-step!!
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

For D. X= 3, or 0 but probably not 0

For the 2nd picture you sent,  x= -2, or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

So for D. you want to make sure you only have 1 Variable, and since we know y=x squared + 7x+5, we subsitute y for what it is equal to.

Then we refine the question, which takes it out to

x squared-3x+5=5 (because the 7x-10x = 3x)

We subtract 5 from both sides which leaves us with x Squared - 3x= 0

Which we then solve with the Quadratic formula. and we separate the solutions to get the different answers for 3, and 0
