Answer:

<h2>x = 2, y = 6 → (2, 6)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\bold{ELIMINATION\ METHOD}\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=-x+8\\y=x+4&\TEXT{change the signs}\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=-x+8\\-y=-x-4\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad0=-2x+4\qquad\text{add}\ 2x\ \text{to both sides}\\.\qquad2x=4\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\.\qquad\boxed{x=2}\\\\\text{Put it to the second equation}\\y=2+4\\\boxed{y=6}

\bold{SUBSTITUTION\ METHOD}\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=-x+8&(1)\\y=x+4&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\\text{Substitute (1) to (2)}\\\\-x+8=x+4\qquad\text{subtract 8 from both sides}\\-x=x-4\qquad\text{subtract}\ x\ \text{from both sides}\\-x-x=-4\\-2x=-4\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\boxed{x=2}\\\\\text{Put it to the second equation}\\y=2+4\\\boxed{y=6}

What vaule of x makes th question true? 3x+2(x-5)=50 a. 8 b.9 c.11 d.12
Ainat [17]
Hey Tierra7l, 

Lets solve your equation together step by step. 

3x+2\left(x-5\right)=50 

\mathrm{Expand}\:2\left(x-5\right):\quad 2x-10 

\mathrm{Distribute\:parentheses\:using}:\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac 

                                    a=2,\:b=x,\:c=-5 

2\cdot \:x+2\left(-5\right) 

\mathrm{Apply\:minus-plus\:rules} 

\:\:+\left(-a\right)=-a 

2x-2\cdot \:5 

\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:5=10 

2x-10 

3x+2x-10=50 

\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:3x+2x=5x 

5x-10=50 

\mathrm{Add\:}10\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides} 

5x-10+10=50+10 

\mathrm{Simplify} 

5x=60 

\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5 

\dfrac{5x}{5}=\dfrac{60}{5} 

\mathrm{Simplify} 

x=12 

Hope this helps,

How many ways can a 7 question multiple choice test be answered? (assume that there are 5 possible responses per question?
sweet [91]
I am assuming that you can only pick one answer per question.

Let's imagine there are two questions on the test. I would:

1) Consider the first question. How many possible ways could you answer it?

2) Consider the second question. How many ways can you answer that?

If you wrote out all the possibilities, how many combinations of answers would you get across the two questions?

What constant term should be used to complete the square? x 2 - 5x + _____ = 7
amm1812
The quadratic equation in its generic form is:
 ax2 + bx + c
 To complete squares we must add the following term:
 (b / 2) ^ 2
 The equation is:
 ax2 + bx + c + (b / 2) ^ 2
 We have the following equation:
 x ^ 2 - 5x + k = 7
 By completing squares we have:
 x ^ 2 - 5x + (-5/2) ^ 2 = 7 + (-5/2) ^ 2
 Rewriting:
 x ^ 2 - 5x + 6.25 = 7 + 6.25
 Answer:
 
A constant term should be used to complete the square is:
 
6.25

-3/5 x 2/-9 x 8 write your answer in simplest form.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

  16/15

Step-by-step explanation:

  \dfrac{-3}{5}\cdot\dfrac{2}{-9}\cdot 8=\dfrac{3\cdot 2\cdot 8}{5\cdot 9}=\dfrac{2\cdot 8}{5\cdot 3}=\dfrac{16}{15}

The two minus signs cancel, so the result is positive.
