What property would you use first to solve 1/2x-6=10

Mathematics

NISA [10]3 years ago

I don't know what you mean by property. Do you mean like, commutative, distributive, etc?

but, if this is what you mean:

to solve this:

The operation here is subtraction. Do the inverse. So, add 6 to both sides of the equation

10 + 6 = 16

1/2x - 6 + 6 = 1/2x. (the 6 cancels out)

1/2x = 16

Now, I'm going to assume 1/2 is supposed to be a fraction (not division). So, 1/2 is right next to x which represents multiplication, so do the opposite which is division.

16 divided by 1/2 = 32

1/2x divided by 1/2 = x

x = 32.

Which ordered pair is a solution to the inequality?<br><br> Help please!!
Murrr4er [49]

Choice A is the answer which is the point (1,-1)

=========================================

How I got this answer:

Plug each point into the inequality. If you get a true statement after simplifying, then that point is in the solution set and therefore a solution. Otherwise, it's not a solution.

-------------

checking choice A

plug in (x,y) = (1,-1)

y - 2x \le -3

-1 - 2(1) \le -3

-3 \le -3

This is true because -3 is equal to itself. So this is the answer.

-------------

checking choice B

plug in (x,y) = (2,4)

y - 2x \le -3

4 - 2(2) \le -3

0 \le -3

This is false because 0 is not to the left of -3, nor is 0 equal to -3. We can cross this off the list.

-------------

checking choice C

plug in (x,y) = (-2,3)

y - 2x \le -3

3 - 2(-2) \le -3

7 \le -3

This is false because 7 is not to the left of -3, nor is 7 equal to -3. We can cross this off the list.

-------------

checking choice D

plug in (x,y) = (3,4)

y - 2x \le -3

4 - 2(3) \le -3

-2 \le -3

This is false because -2 is not to the left of -3, nor is -2 equal to -3. We can cross this off the list.

Has a slope of 2 and passing through (10, 17)
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b

We know that m = 2

We can plug in x and y values to find b

17 = 2(10) +b

b = 17 - 20

b = -3

Therefore,

y = 2x - 3

Which equation can be solved by using this system of equations?
Pavel [41]
To solve the two sets of equations simultaneously, subtract one equation from the other to obtain
3x^5 + 2x^2 - 10x + 4 - (4x^4 + 6x^3 - 11) = 0
3x^5 - 4x^4 - 6x^3 + 2x^2 - 10x - 7 = 0

This is a polynomial of degree 5 to be solved for zeros.
A graphing calculator will yield 3 real zeros (verifiable by Descartes Rule of Signs).
