Answer:

(x, y) = (-7, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 7

-3 - 2x = 7

<em>Substitute the given value of y into the equation</em>

- 3x - 2 x 7 = 7

<em>Solve for the equation for x </em>

x = -7

<em>The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair (x, y)</em>

(x, y) = ( -7, 7)

<em>Check if the given ordered pair is the solution of the system of equations</em>

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

= 7 = 7 = 7

Answer:

x = -3

(-3,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = –3x – 2,

y = 7

We know the value of y, y=7

Substitute into the first equation

7 = –3x – 2

Add 2 to each side

7+2 =  –3x – 2+2

9 = -3x

Divide each side by -3

9/-3 = -3x/-3

-3 = x

A superhero recently asked his nemesis how many cats she has. She answered with a​ riddle: ​"One-half of my cats plus two​."
mixer [17]
I got ten. Here's the equation. 

x = 1/2x + 5 

<span>Subtract 1/2x from both sides to get all x's on one side </span>

<span>x - 1/2x = 1/2x - 1/2x + 5 </span>

<span>1/2x = 5 </span>

<span>Now multiple the left by 2 to get x, but since it's an equation, you need to also multiply the right by 2 to keep it =. </span>

<span>2 * 1/2x = 2 * 5 </span>

<span>x = 10 cats</span>

After reading 80% of her e-mails in her inbox, Danette still has M unread emails. Which of the following expressions could repre
Fofino [41]

Answer:

m/(1 - .8)

Step-by-step explanation:

She read 80% of her emails, which is .8 of the total.  So her unread emails would be 100% - 80% = 1 - .8

that means me can be written as:

m = (1 - .8)t

where t is the total

If we solve for t, we get:

t = m/(1 - .8)

Heidi solved the equation 3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4). Her steps are below: 3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x – 20 3x + 14 = 5x – 18 14 = 2x
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

Step 1: distributive property

3(x + 4) + 2 = 2 + 5(x – 4)

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

Step 2: collect like terms

3x + 12 + 2 = 2 + 5x - 20

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

Step 3: Addition property of equality

3x + 14 = 5x - 18

3x + 14 + 18 = 5x - 18 + 18

3x + 32 = 5x

Step 4: subtraction property of equality

3x + 32 - 3x = 5x - 3x

32 = 2x

Step 5: division property of equality

32 = 2x

32/2 = 2x/2

16 = x

x = 16

Rabbit populations can double every 30 days. If there are 26 rabbits on a farm, how many rabbits will be on the farm after 240 d
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

7680 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the number of rabbits after x days and let x represent the number of days. This is an exponential growth equation in the form:

y=ab^x

Since there is an initial value of 26 rabbits on the farm and the rabbits double every 30 days, hence the equation becomes:

y=26(2^{(\frac{x}{30} )})\\\\for\ 240\ days, i.e\ x=240:\\\\y=26(2^\frac{240}{30} )\\\\y=7680\ rabbits
