Answer:
(-2, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 5y = 7
3x - 2y = -12
Let's solve this by elimination. We want to eliminate one variable at a time. This means we need to multiply the equations to create a common multiple to cancel out a variable.
Let's work with y.
5y and -2y: For these values to cancel out, we need to multiply each term to create a common multiple.
2(4x + 5y = 7)
5(3x - 2y = -12)
Multiply.
8x + 10y = 14
15x - 10y = -60
Eliminate.
23x = -46
Divide both sides by 23.
x = -2
Now that we know x, let's plug it back into one of equations to find y.
4x + 5y = 7
4(-2) + 5y = 7
Multiply.
-8 + 5y = 7
Add.
5y = 15
Divide.
y = 3
Now we know x and y; let's plug both back into the equation we have not checked yet.
3x - 2y = -12
3(-2) - 2(3) = -12
Multiply.
-6 - 6 = -12
Subtract.
-12 = -12
Your solution is correct.
(-2, 3)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
2x - y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 2x - 1 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 2
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus
y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (1, 2) into the partial equation
2 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 2 = 0
y = 2x ← equation in slope- intercept form
Subtract y from both sides
0 = 2x - y , that is
2x - y = 0 ← equation in standard form
Answer: 5%
Step-by-step explanation:
A meteorologist predicted that Monday's hight temperature would be 76F and on Monday, the temperature reached 80F.
The percentage error will be
Percentage error=
(Exact value-Forecasted value)/exact value x 100
= 76-80/80 × 100
= -4/80 × 100
=4/80 × 100
= 400/80
= 5%
The percentage error is 5%.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this sort of problem, there can be an infinite number of answers.
It can be convenient to choose one of the simpler answers by looking at the operations that are performed on the variable. Here, you have ...
- 2 multiplies it
- 4 is added to the product
- the square root is taken
- 8 is divided by that root
You can work from the bottom up and define the outer function (f(x)) to be any of these operations. In our answer above, we have elected to include the "square root" and the "8 divided by that root" in our definition of f.
Then our function g takes care of the other operations.
