The correct answer is x=1 and y=-2

to solve for x and y, you can either substitute equations or add or subtract the equation.
for my explanation, I will subtract equations.

to start, you must look at the xs and ys to find similarities. since they both have 8y, we can easily subtract the equations to cancel the y for now and find x
x+8y=-15. x+8y=-15
-(7x+8y=-9. = -7x-8y=9

when you subtract the equations you get
-6x=-6
dividing each side by -6 to get the x by itself will give you
x=1
then, solve for y by substituting the 1 in the x stop of either equation
I will be substituting the x in the first equation
1+8y=-15
8y=-16
y=8
both equations should give you the same answer
to check, substitute the x and y in the other equation
7(1)+8(-2)=-9
7-16=-9
-9=-9
so x=1 and y=-2

2(x-3)=3/4(8x-12)<br> step by step please
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

x = \frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-3)=\frac{3}{4} (8x-12)

2x-6 = \frac{3}{4}8x- \frac{3}{4} 12

2x-6 = 6x - 9

-6+9 = 6x - 2x

3 = 4x

x = \frac{3}{4}

Which value is closest to the perimeter of the window
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

9.82 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter of the window is the circumference of a semi-circle with a diameter of 5

P = (πd)/2     (divided in half because it's only half a circle)

P ≈ 3.14(3.5) which is approx 11

11 is closest to 9.82
