Determine whether the equation 2x + y = 8 is linear. If so, graph the function.

1 answer:

3 0

It is linear because both variables have an exponent of 1. (FYI: one of the exponents can be 0 and still be a linear equation).

2x + y = 8

-2x -2x

y = -2x + 8 ⇒ slope (m) = -2 and y-intercept (b) = 8

plot the y-intercept (0, 8). then plot the next point by counting the rise over run from the y-intercept. count 2 units down and 1 unit to the right = (1, 6).

Answer:

First equation x=2, Y=9, Second Eq, x=2, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

X+Y=11

2X-Y=-5 by substitution Y=11-X

So, 2x-(11-x)=-5, 2x-11+x=-5, 3x=6, x=2. Thus, Y=11-2=9

2x+y=5

3x-2y=4

so, y=5-2x

Thus, 3x-2(5-2x)=4

3x-10+4x=4, 7x=14, x=2, Thus, Y=5-2(2)= 1

You purchased a new car for 17,999 in the year 2015. It is now 2020 and you want to sell your car for a fair price. If your car

salantis [7]

Answer:

$7,986.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the following formula to solve:

$A=P(1-r)^t$

P = principal value

r = rate (decimal)

t = time (years)

First, change 15% into a decimal:

15% -> $\frac{15}{100}$ -> 0.15

Since 2015 and 2020 are 5 years apart, we will use 5 for t. Now, plug the values into the equation:

$A=17,999(1-0.15)^5$

$A=7,986.25$

Your car would be worth $7,986.25
