Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + y = -2………… Equation 1

-3x + 6y = -12 ………… Equation 2

Using substitution

Make y the subject in equation 1 and substitute it into equation 2 and solve for x

That's

y = 5x - 2

We have

- 3x + 6( 5x - 2) = - 12

- 3x + 30x - 12 = - 12

27x = - 12 + 12

27x = 0

Divide both sides by 27

x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into y = 5x - 2

We have

y = 5(0) - 2

y = - 2

So the solutions are

Hope this helps you

Given that AB is a line segment and the angle a = 75°, work out the value of x.

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

given : angle a = 75

we need to find the value of x.

To find the value of x.

we know that it is a straight angle so the sum of angles on a line will be 180

3x + 2x + a = 180

5x + 75 = 180

5x = 180 - 75

5x = 105

x = 105/5

x = 21

Given the mapping f:x-7x-2, determine f(2)

Degger [83]

Answer:

Value of F(2) = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

F(x) = 7x - 2

Find:

Value of F(2)

Computation:

F(x) = 7x - 2

putting x = 2

f(2) = 7(2) -2

f(2) = 14 - 2

f(2) = 12

So, Value of F(2) = 12
