Step-by-step Answer:

What is the solution to the system of equations?

y = –3x – 2 ..............(1)

5x + 2y = 15..............(2)

Substitute (1) in (2) to give

5x + 2(-3x-2) = 15

5x-6x-4 = 15

-x-4=15

solve for x:

-4-15 = x

x=-19

Now substitute x=-19 into equation (1)

y = -3x-2 = 57-2 = 55

Therefore the solution is (-19, 55)

solniwko [45]

Answer:

y = -5x - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute into form of y - y1 = m(x - x1): (Take the point (-7,10) for x1 & y1, m would be the slope)

y - 10 = -5(x -(-7))

y - 10 = -5(x + 7)

y - 10 = -5x - 35

y = -5x - 25

Solve the following system of equations for all three variables.
nignag [31]
  5x - 2y + 1z = 8 ⇒   5x - 2y + 1z = 8
-9x + 2y + 2z = 5 ⇒ -9x + 2y + 2z = 5
-9x -  2y -  5z = 4             -4x + 3z = 13

 5x -  2y + 1z = 8
-9x + 2y + 2z = 5 ⇒ -9x + 2y + 2z = 5
-9z -  2y -  5z = 4 ⇒ -9x -  2y -  5z = 4
                                        -18x - 3z = 9

     -4x + 3z = 13
    -18x - 3z =   9
           -22x = 22
            -22    -22
                x = -1
    -18x - 3z = 9
-18(-1) - 3z = 9
       18 - 3z = 9
     - 18       - 18
             -3z = -9
              -3     -3
                z = 3

    5x - 2y + z = 8
5(-1) - 2y + 3 = 8
     -5 - 2y + 3 = 8
     -2y - 5 + 3 = 8
           -2y - 2 = 8
                + 2 + 2
                -2y = 10
                 -2     -2
                   y = -5
          (x, y, z) = (-1, -5, 3)

Simple math but I can't seem to understand it: x+y=2 becomes y=2-x, in order to find slope and y intercept y=mx+b The result bec
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we started off with the equation:

x+y=2

And we subtracted x from both sides to acquire:

y=2-x

Now, this is essentially slope-intercept form. Recall that the slope-intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If we rearrange our equation:

y=2-x\\y=-x+2

And put some parentheses:

y=(-1)x+(2)

We can see that this is indeed slope-intercept form.

And we can see that m is -1 and b is 2.

In other words, the slope is -1 and the y-intercept is 2.

A triangle has angles measuring 15° and 45°. What is the measurement of the triangle’s third angle?
nexus9112 [7]
First you need to know that the internal angles of a triangle always equals 180°. Therefore:

15+45= 90°

Then since the angles should equal 180, you do:

180-90=90

So the missing angle equals 90°
