Answer:

x = 5; y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5y = 0

3x - 4y = 23

Let's eliminate y. Multiply the first equation by 4. Multiply the second equation by 5. Then add them.

         8x + 20y = 0

(+)      15x - 20y = 115

------------------------------

          23x         = 115

x = 5

Now we substitute 5 for x in the first equation and solve for y.

2(5) + 5y = 0

5y = -10

y = -2

Solution: x = 5; y = -2

Hey there! :)

Answer:

(5, -2), or x = 5 and y = -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the two equations algebraically by eliminating a variable:

2x + 5y = 0

3x - 4y = 23

Eliminate the x variable by finding the least common multiple and multiplying both equations:

3(2x + 5y = 0)

2(3x - 4y = 23)

Distribute and subtract the bottom equation from the top:

6x + 15y = 0

6x - 8y = 46

------------------

0x + 23y = -46

23y = -46

y = -2.

Plug in y into an equation to solve for x:

2x + 5(-2) = 0

2x - 10 = 0

2x = 10

x = 5. Therefore:

The solution to this equation is (5, -2), or x = 5 and y = -2.

Number 15. Find the equation of the line that passes through (3,-1) and is perpendicular to the line that passes through (-5, 2)
MArishka [77]
For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:

m1*m2=-1

So we first need to find the slope of the reference line.

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(7-2)/(-1--5)=5/4

So the perpendicular line will have a slope of:

5m/4=-1

m=-4/5

So our perpendicular line so far is:

y=-4x/5+b, now we can use point (3,-1) to solve for the y-intercept, "b"

-1=-4(3)/5+b

-1=-12/5+b

-5/5+12/5=b

7/5=b

So the line is:

y=-4x/5+7/5 or more neatly

y=(-4x+7)/5

y=-0.8x+1.4

After simplifying, how many terms does the expression 4y-6+y2-9 contain?​
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

There are three terms in the simplified expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to simplify the expression and have to count the number of terms that the expression has.

The expression is 4y - 6 + y² - 9

= 4y + y² - 6 - 9

= y² + 4y - 15

Therefore, there are three terms in the simplified expression, one for y² term, another is y term and the constant term. (Answer)
