Solve the system of linear equations by substitution.

Mathematics

Anastasy [175]3 years ago

Answer: The solution is the ordered pair (1/2,  -3/4) so x = 1/2 and y = -3/4 pair up together. The two lines, when graphed, cross at this location.

note: 1/2 = 0.5 and -3/4 = -0.75; so the intersection point can be written as (0.5, -0.75)

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

Explanation:

The second equation has y isolated. We can replace the y in the first equation with the expression 1/2x - 1

3x + 2y = 0

3x + 2( y ) = 0

3x + 2( 1/2x - 1) = 0 ... y is replaced with 1/2x-1

3x + 2(1/2x) + 2(-1) = 0 .... distribute

3x + x - 2 = 0 .... note how 2 times 1/2 is 1

4x - 2 = 0

4x = 2

x = 2/4

x = 1/2

Use this x value to find the y value it pairs with

y = (1/2)*x - 1

y = (1/2)*(1/2) - 1 ... replace x with 1/2

y = 1/4 - 1

y = 1/4 - 4/4

y = (1-4)/4

y = -3/4

The sum of 5 consecutive odd numbers is 135 what is the second number in this sequence
hoa [83]

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) + (x + 8) = 135

5·x + 20 = 135

5·x = 115

x = 23

So the sequence is

23, 25, 27, 29, 31

The second number is 25.

Do you agree?

Find the distance between each pair of points. Round to the nearest tenth<br> (-2,2) (5,2)
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Distance = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

d= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} \\d= \sqrt{(5-(-2))^2+(2-2)^2} \\d= \sqrt{(7)^2+(0)^2} \\d= \sqrt{49+0} \\d= \sqrt{49}\\ d= 7
