Plug y=4 into equaton
8x-4=-12
add 4 to both sides
8x=-8
divide both sides by 8
x=-1

x=-1
y=4
(-1,4)

To solve this, you need to substitute the value of Y into the equation 8X - Y = -12

So, since Y = 4, plug 4 in for Y:

8X - Y = -12
8X - (4) = -12

Now solve for X.

Does that help? Do you have any questions?

Just as a heads up this technique also works for larger equations. If Y = 3X, then you'd just plug 3X in for Y:

8X - Y = -12
8X - (3X) = -12

You got this!

latisha wants to buy pumpkins and autumn squash for a fall display. she has a budget of $117 but wants to buy more than 10 veget
Alenkinab [10]

Answer: 15 squash, 5 pumpkins; 15 squash, 10 pumpkins; 20 squash, 5 pumpkins.


Step-by-step explanation:

Then graph the system of inequalities: 3.5x + 5.59y (less than or equal to) 117; x + y > 10.

The first inequality is saying the cost of x squash and y pumpkins should total no more than $117.

The second inequality states x squash and y pumpkins should add up to more than 10.

The angle of elevation of the top of a tower from a point 100m away is 45 degrees. What is the height of the tower to the neares
OLEGan [10]
<h3>Answer: 100 meters</h3>

===========================================

Explanation:

If you draw out the diagram, then you'll find that a 45-45-90 triangle forms. The nice thing about this type of triangle is that the two legs are always the same length. The horizontal leg is 100 meters, so the vertical leg must also be 100 meters.

Side note: this type of triangle is an isosceles right triangle.

---------

You could use the tangent rule to get the same thing

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(45) = 100/x

1 = 100/x

1*x = 100

x = 100

In this case, the opposite leg is the vertical leg since it is furthest from the angle of elevation.
