What is the solution of the system equations y =-3x +8 y = -5x -2

Mathematics

Answer:

Since both equations are equal to y, we can set them equal to each other.

y =-3x +8

y = -5x -2

-3x +8 = -5x -2

Solve for x.To do this, we need to get x by itself. First, move all the numbers to one side of the equation, and all the variables to the other.

-3x +8 = -5x -2

Add 5x to both sides

-3x+5x +8=-5x+5x -2

2x+8=-2

Subtract 8 from both sides

2x+8-8 = -2-8

2x=-10

Now, all the numbers are on one side, with the variables on the other. x is not by itself, it is being multiplied by 2. To undo this, divide both sides by 2

2x/2= -10/2

x= -5

Now, to find y, substitute -5 in for x in one of the equations.

y = -5x -2

y= -5(-5) -2

y=25-2

y=23

Put the solution into (x,y)

The solution is (-5, 23)

4. The reference angle for 190 is A. 10° B. 180° C. -10° D. 90°

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation: A reference angle is smallest possible angles that terminal side makes with the x- axis. Since 190 degrees is located i the 3rd quadrant we use the formula 190-180 to find the possible answer and in this case it is A, 10.

Find the distance between (0, 2 sqrt 5) and (-2 sqrt 6 , 0)

Semenov [28]

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2\sqrt{5}})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-2\sqrt{6}}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{(-2\sqrt{6}-0)^2+(0-2\sqrt{5})^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-2\sqrt{6})^2+(-2\sqrt{5})^2} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{(2^2\cdot (\sqrt{6})^2)+(2^2\cdot (\sqrt{5})^2)}\implies d=\sqrt{(4\cdot 6)+(4\cdot 5)} \\\\\\ d=\sqrt{24+20}\implies d=\sqrt{44}\implies d=\sqrt{2^2\cdot 11}\implies d=2\sqrt{11}$

The line passes through the point -4, -8 and has a slope of 3/2 Rewrite an equation in a X plus BY equals C

amid [387]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(-4,-8)...x = -4 and y = -8

slope = 3/2

in y = mx + b form, the m is ur slope

now sub ur info into y = mx + b......we need to find b, the y intercept

y = mx + b

-8 = 3/2(-4) + b

-8 = -6 + b

-8 + 6 = b

-2 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3/2x - 2.....but u need it in another form

y = 3/2x - 2.....subtract 3/2x from both sides

-3/2x + y = -2 ....then u can multiply by -2 and get 3x - 2y = 4....just in case u dont want fractions
