Answer:
(a) (6, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The system of equations has one of them in y= form, so it lends itself to solution by substitution.
__
Using the equation for y to substitute into the first equation, we have ...
2x -y = 10
2x -(-1/2x +5) = 10 . . . . . substitute for y
2x +1/2x -5 = 10 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
5/2x = 15 . . . . . . . . . add 5, collect terms
x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2/5
Using the equation for y, we have ...
y = -1/2(6) +5 = -3 +5
y = 2
The solution is (x, y) = (6, 2).
To answer this item, note that what needs to be done is to substitute -4 to all x's in the equation. That is,
F(x) = 2^x
will become,
F(-4) = 2^(-4) = 1/16 or 0.0625
Answer:
8.6
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the distance between two points we use the formula posted below
All we need to do is figure out what the points are on the graph and plug them into the formula... we end up with
the square root of (5-(-2)^2+(2-(-3)^2 and get the answer of 8.602325267
then we round to the nearest tenth and get 8.6
g(x) = -3x² - 2x + 3
g(-2) = -3(-2)² - 2(-2) + 3
g(-2) = -12 + 4 + 3 = -5
Answer:
It would take 5.5 months for the two cable companies to cost the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
50x + 100 = 60x + 45
-45 -45
50x + 55 = 60x
-50x -50x
55 = 10x
/10 /10
x = 5.5
