Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Bree's age = x

David's age= 3x+7

x*(3x+7)=110

3x² + 7x =110

3x² + 7x - 110 = 0

3x² - 15x +22x - 22*5 = 0

3x*(x - 5) +22 (x - 5) = 0

(x - 5) (3x + 22) = 0

x - 5 = 0     { 3x + 22 = 0 is not considered as age wont come in negative}

x = 5

Bree's age = 5 years

David's age = 3x + 7 = 3*5 + 7 = 15 + 7 = 22 years

What should you substitute for y in the bottom equation to solve the system by the substitution method?
Contact [7]
Answer: y= -x-5


Step 1: Determine which equation to change

Since we will be using the substitution method, we will need to substitute y from the bottom equation with information from the top equation. This will be the equation we change.

Step 2: Change the equation

Let’s rewrite the equation we will be working with.

3x+3y= -15

Our goal will be to get y alone on the left side. To start, let’s subtract 3x from both sides, leaving only 3y on the left side.

3x+3y= -15
3y= -3x-15

Now we need to get y completely alone by eliminating the coefficient of 3. Let’s do this by dividing each term by 3.

3y= -3x-15
y= -x-5


This is your answer. Hope this helps! Comment below for more questions.

The perimeter of a triangle is 61 in. The shortest side is 8 in. less than the longest side. The middle side is 19 in. less than
Marianna [84]

Answer:

since the lengths are consecutive odd numbers and the perimeter of the triangle is 51cms. Let x be the unknown length.

so 3x=51 ; x=17 . now the sides can be 15cms, 17cms, 19cms.

check Add them up it is 51cms  which is the perimeter and the consecutive odd numbers

exis [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

cartesian plane :

quadrant 1 : both x and y are positive

quadrant 2 : x is negative, y is positive

quadrant 3 : both x and y are negative

quadrant 4 : x is positive and y is negative

(-2,4)......we have x is negative and y is positive...so we are in quadrant 2

(3,-1)....we have x is positive and y is negative...in quadrant 4

(-1,0) ...if u have a 0 in ur points, they do not lie in any quadrant because they are located on an axis....this is located on axis x

(1,2)....both are positive....located in quadrant 1

(-3,-5)...both are negative.....quadrant 3
