Answer:

Multiply the first equation by 3

Multiply the second equation by -7

Step-by-step explanation:

After doing the above method, you will derive equation 3 and 4 then you can eliminate the x and get y .

FURTHER EXPLANATION

-7x + 2y = 5 -------(1)\\3x - 5y = -5-------(2)\\\\-7x + 2y = 5 -------(1) \times 3\\3x - 5y = -5-------(2)\times-7\\\\-21x +6y=15 -----(3)\\-21x +35y=35----(4)\\Subtract -eq- 4- from -eq- 3 \\-29y =-20\\Divide-both-sides-by;-29\\\frac{-29y}{-29} =\frac{-20}{-29} \\y = 20/29\\

Substitute ; 20/29 for  y- in- eq 1\\-7x + 2y = 5----(1)\\-7x +2(20/29) = 5\\-7x +40/29=5\\-7x = 5 - 40/29\\-7x = 105/29\\Divide through by -7\\x = -15/29

I Hope It helps

Answer:

Multiply the first equation by 3

Multiply the second equation by -7

Step-by-step explanation:

( - 7x + 2y = 5) \times 3 \\ (3x - 5y =  - 5) \times 7

- 21x + 6y = 15 ..(3)\\  - 21x - 35y =  - 35...(4)

Subtract equation 3 from equation 4

- 21x - ( - 21x) =  - 21x + 21x = 0

x has been eliminated

Which table does not represent a relationship that is directly proportional? Btw i clicked a by accident
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The selected option

Step-by-step explanation:

Coincidentally, you answered correctly.

From the values of 3 and five, we can assume that the function of the table is Y=x+2.

But if we move to the next value pairs, that function is false.

10=6+2 that isn't correct.

If you apply this to all the pairs in the table you will find that there is not a function that represents the values given. Therefore, the first option is correct.

For which value of theta is cot (theta) undefined?
sattari [20]

The cotangent function is defined as the ratio between cosine and sine of a given angle, i.e.


\cot(x) = \frac{\cos(x)}{\sin(x)}


Since you can't have zero at the denominator, the cotangent function is not defined when the sine is zero.


Let's look at your option:


\sin(90^\circ) = 1, so the cotangent is defined here


\sin(180^\circ) = 0, so the cotangent is not defined here


\sin(270^\circ) = -1, so the cotangent is defined here


\sin(450^\circ) = \sin(360^\circ+90^\circ)=\sin(90^\circ) = 1, so the cotangent is defined here
