2x+5y=-55 y=3x+6 What is the solution

zloy xaker [14]3 years ago

Hey there!!

We have 2 equations.

... 2x+5y=-55 and y=3x+6

Substitution method:

... 2x+5(3x+6)=-55

... 2x+15x+30=-55

... 17x+30=-55

Subtracting 30 on both sides:

... 17x=-55-30

... 17x=-85

Dividing by 17 on both sides:

... x=-85/17

... x = -5

<em>The value of x is -5. </em>

We have:

... 2x+5y=-55

... 2(-5)+5y=-55

... -10+5y=-55

Adding by 10 on both sides:

... 5y=-55+10

... 5y=-45

Dividing by 5 on both sides:

... y=-9

<em>Hence, the value of 'x' is -5 and the value of 'y' is -9. </em>

Hope my answer helps!

Let: eq 1:2x+5y=-55
eq 2:y=3x+6
by substituting eq 2 in eq 1 we get,
2x+5(3x+6)=-55
2x+15x+30+55=0
17x + 85=0
x=-85/17
x=-5
By substituting x value in eq 2,
we have,
y=3(-5)+6=-15+6=-9

1. –2v – 7 = –23 (1 point) 15 8 –8 –15 2. Start Fraction x over 4 End Fraction – 5 = –8 (1 point) –27 –12 –7 12
lara [203]

Answer:

  1. v = 8
  2. x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

1. I like to work with positive numbers, so the first thing I'd do is multiply the equation by -1.

  2v + 7 = 23

  2v = 16 . . . . . subtract 7

  v = 8 . . . . . . . divide by 2

<em>Check</em>

  -2(8) -7 = -23 . . . . true

___

2. (x/4) -5 = -8

  x/4 = -3 . . . . . . . add 5

  x = -12 . . . . . . . . multiply by 4

<em>Check</em>

  (-12/4) -5 = -8 . . . . true

The lines shown below are parallel. If the green line has a slope of -3/7 what is the slope of the red line?
anastassius [24]
When any lines are parallel that means they have the same slope so the slope of the red line would also have a slope of -3/7

A)∠ JIL and ∠ KLN<br><br> B)∠ JIL and ∠ JIG<br><br> C)∠ JIL and ∠ KLI<br><br> D)∠ JIL and HIG
siniylev [52]

Answer:

C. JIL and KLI

Step-by-step explanation:

Well a interior angle is a curve type thing where two lines cross it will look like half a oval or circle. Your Using the letters to create this half and oval shape and to help us understand a Interior angle we know J,I, and L are connected so we can look at and connect those letting us know what the other one should look like. Connecting each option (KLN, JIG, KIL and HIG) Will let us know if they match JIL or not. KLN is smaller then JIL making it incorrect and that also tells us that JIG is incorrect since it matches KLN but compare it anyways. Now we check KLI doing that shows us that it does match JIL and it may be the answer but let's compare HIG to JIL anyways By doing this we see that HIG is a lot bigger and that it does not match JIL leaving us with choice C.

                                    I hope this helped I had no idea what a Interior angel was so i looked up what it was then self taught from there im sure there is more to it, But I hoped this helped you have a great day!!! :)
