Answer:

(x, y) = (-4, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

The two equations have the same coefficient for y, so you can eliminate y by subtracting one equation from the other. Here the x coefficient is largest for the first equation, so it will work best to subtract the second equation.

(3x +y) -(2x +y) = (3) -(7)

x = -4 . . . . . . . . simplify

Now, we can find y by substituting this value for x.

2(-4) +y = 7

y = 7 +8 = 15 . . . . . add 8 to both sides of the equation

The solution is (x, y) = (-4, 15).

3. For the equation-4y = &r, what is the constant of variation? (1 point)<br> ООО<br> 02

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

3).

$- 4y = 8x \\ \frac{y}{x} = \frac{8}{ - 4} \\ \frac{y}{x} = - 2 \\ y = - 2x \\ hence \: constant \: is \: - 2$

4).

$y \alpha x \\ y = kx \\ where \: k \: is \: the \: constant \: of \: proportionality \\ when \: y = 24 \: and \: x = 8 \\ substitute \: in \: y = kx \\ 24 = 8k \\ k = \frac{24}{8} \\ k = 3 \\ value \: of \: constant = 3$

If it was by 10, k = 3 by 10

k = 30

5).

$general \: equation \: of \: line \\ y = mx + c \\ but \: m = \frac{2}{3} \: and \: c = 9 \\ substitute \: for \: m \: and \: c \: in \: y = mx + c \\ y = \frac{2}{3} x + 9 \\ alternatively \\ 3y = 2x + 27$

I don't understand number 8

Norma-Jean [14]

Let's try plugging in some negative numbers. Let's do x=-1. 5+-1=4. So we know that if we put in a negative number for x, then n will be positive. But what if we do a number greater than -5, because 5+-5=0. So let's try x=-6. So 5+(-6)=-1. Hmm. So here it is. We know that any number under -5 will be positive and any number above -5 will be negative.

Use the function below to find F(3).

arlik [135]

Answer:

The choice D.

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = {( \frac{1}{6} })^{x} \\ \\ f(3) = {( \frac{1}{6} })^{3} = \frac{ ({1})^{3} }{( {6})^{3} } = \frac{1}{216}$
