A.  We have two lines:  y = 2-x   and   y = 4x+3 Given two simultaneous equations that are both required to be true.. the solution is the points where the lines cross...  Which is where the two equations are equal..  Thus the solution that works for both equations is when 2-x = 4x+3 because where that is true is where the two lines will cross and that is the common point that satisfies both equations.   B.  2-x = 4x+3   x     2-x      4x+3
______________

-3     5       -9
-2     4       -5
-1     3       -1
 0     2        3
 1     1        7
 2     0      11
 3    -1      15

The table shows that none of the integers from [-3,3] work because in no case does
2-x = 4x+3   To find the solution we need to rearrange the equation to the form x=n 2-x = 4x+3 2 -x + x = 4x + x +3 2 = 5x + 3 2-3 = 5x +3-3 5x = -1 x = -1/5   The only point that satisfies both equations is where x = -1/5 Find y:   y = 2-x  = 2 - (-1/5) = 2 + 1/5 = 10/5 + 1/5 = 11/5 Verify we get the same in the other equation y = 4x + 3   =  4(-1/5) + 3 = -4/5 + 15/5 = 11/5   Thus the only actual solution, being the point where the lines cross, is the point (-1/5, 11/5)   C.  To solve graphically  2-x=4x+3 we would graph both lines...   y = 2-x  and   y = 4x+3 The point on the graph where the lines cross is the solution to the system of equations ... [It should be, as shown above, the point (-1/5, 11/5)]   To graph y = 2-x   make a table.... We have already done this in part B   x     2-x                x    4x+3 _______              ________ -1    3                   -1      -1  0    2                    0       3  1    1                    1       7   Just graph the points on a cartesian coordinate system and draw the two lines.  The solution is, as stated, the point where the two lines cross on the graph.  

Hope this helps.

You probably mean the equations are y = 4 - x and y = 2x -1. Else with given equations, the solution is not possible. The steps of the solution are listed below:

Part A) 

The solution to the equation 4 - x = 2x + 1 are the points where both the equations have same value for a given value of x. This means, if a points (x,y) lies on both the lines it will be the solution of the given equations. Since that point lies on both the lines, both lines will cross that point. Crossing that point can be seen as intersection of two lines at that point. 
Therefore, x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of equations y = 4 -  x and y = 2x + 1 intersect are the solutions of the equation 4 - x = 2x + 1

Part B)
The table is attached in the images below. As seen from the table, both lines have same value of y for x =1. So x=1 is the solution to the equation 4 - x = 2x + 1

Part C)
In order to solve the equation 4 - x = 2x + 1 , we plot the individual lines y = 4 - x and y = 2x + 1 on the graph. The point of intersection of two lines will be the solution to the equation. The graph of lines is attached below.

Very important!! Solve the inequality 6r + 30 ≥ 12 or -r > 12 (the question is important for high school application c:)
Fofino [41]

First simplify the one inequality, 6r + 30 greater than or equal to 12 just divide by 6 then subtract 30 from both sides of the inequality. You should get r is greater than or equal to -3. For this one you need to reverse the inequality symbol then divide both sides by -1 to get a positive r, and you get r is less than -12. It's not A because there's two solutions, and it's not D for the same reason. It's not C because r isn't greater than -12. In conclusion it's B because it correctly represents the solutions that make the inequality true. I hope this helps you on your high school application :)

devlian [24]

Answer:

The frequency distribution is given below:

Class                      Frequency

0 - 9                               9

10 - 19                             6

20 - 29                           3

30 - 39                           3

40 - 49                           3

From the given 4 options, the histogram in option A accurately displays this data. Hence the option A is correct.

Rhett decides to build a square room for his movie and music collection. If the area of the room is 16x2 − 24x + 9 square feet,
timurjin [86]

Answer:

16x^2 - (12+12)x + 9

16x^2 -12x -12x +9

4x(4x-3)-3(4x-3)

(4x-3)(4x-3)

hence length of one side is 4x-3
