We are given the value of y.....y = -2x + 21...so we are going to sub in -2x + 21 in for y in the other equation.

-4x + 6y = -18
-4x + 6(-2x + 21) = -18....now we distribute through the parenthesis.
-4x - 12x + 126 = -18... simplify
-16x + 126 = -18.....subtract 126 from both sides
-16x + 126 - 126 = -18 - 126....simplify
-16x = -144...now divide both sides by -16
(-16/-16)x = -144/-16...simplify
x = 9

now we can use either equation...sub in 9 for x and solve for y
y = -2x + 21
y = -2(9) + 21
y = -18 + 21
y = 3

now we can check our answers...
-4x + 6y = -18
-4(9) + 6(3) = -18
-36 + 18 = -18
-18 = -18 (correct)

so ur solution is : (9,3)

Her jump rope Ella can make 17 jumps in 15 second.at this rate how make jumps can she make in20 minute?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

1360

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 1200 seconds in 20 minutes. if Ella can do 17 jumps in 15 seconds, you would divide 1200 by 15 (which equals 80) because that would be the number of 15 seconds in 20 minutes. then you would divide 80 by 17, which gives you your final answer of 1360 jumps in 20 minutes.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (−7,5) and (-7,-8).
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the slope using

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = ( -8 - 5)/( -7 - -7)

   = (-8-5)/(-7+7)

   = -13/0

This means the slope is undefined and the line is vertical

Vertical lines are in the form

x= constant and the constant is the x value of the points

x = -7
