2x+3y=12 and y=x+1.5 in substitution form

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sonbull [250]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

(1.5, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + 3y = 12 → (1)

y = x + 1.5 → (2)

Substitute y = x + 1. 5 into (1)

2x + 3(x + 1.5) = 12 ← distribute and simplify left side

2x + 3x + 4.5 = 12

5x + 4.5 = 12 ( subtract 4.5 from both sides )

5x = 7.5 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 1.5

Substitute x = 1.5 into (2) for corresponding value of y

y = 1.5 + 1.5 = 3

Solution is (1.5, 3)

Find the value of x that makes line m parallel to line n.​
evablogger [386]

Answer: <em>x</em> = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

   If line <em>m</em> is parallel to line <em>n</em>, the two angles given will be congruent because they will be alternate exterior angles (which are congruent).

  This means we will set them equal to each other and solve for <em>x</em>.

Given:

(4<em>x</em> - 23) = (2<em>x</em> + 17)

Add 23 to both sides of the equation:

4<em>x</em> = 2<em>x</em> + 40

Subtract 2<em>x</em> from both sides of the equation:

2<em>x</em> = 40

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

<em>x</em> = 20

Brian pays £465.98 a year on his car insurance. The insurance company reduces the price by 3.6%.How much does the insurance cost
inysia [295]

Answer:

The correct answer is £449.20 rounded upto 2 DP.

Step-by-step explanation:

Brian pays £465.98 a year on his car insurance.

The insurance company reduces the price by 3.6%.

The amount reduced by the insurance company is 3.6% of 465.98 = £16.77528.

Price the insurance company charges now is given by subtracting the previous cost with the reduction amount.

Thus the insurance cost now = £ (465.98 - 16.77528) = £449.20472 ≈ £449.20.

Thus the reduced insurance cost Brian has to pay now is £449.20 rounded to 2DP.
