Answer:

Equation: -5 + 12

Overall change: 7 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

In the problem, it says "lost 5 yards". "Lost" is another way of saying subtraction or negative. Therefore, our starting number is -5.

The problem also says "gained 12 yards". "Gained" is another was of saying addition or positive. Therefore, our second number is positive 12.

Together, these two numbers look like this: -5 + 12. To add them, go 12 to the right of -5 if on a number line. That would be like this: -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, etc until you get to 7 which should be 12 more than -5.

Therefore, the answer is 7 yards.

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

graph y = -3/2x - 2

x Intercept:  0 = -3/2x -2

               3/2x = -2

                    x = <u>-2 (2)</u>

                            3

                    x = -4/3

                   (-4/3,  0)

y intercept: (0, -2)

X^2+y^2=169, 3x+2y=39 please answer using substitution and each step
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

x=13,y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a system of equations

{x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2}  = 169 -  - eqn \: 1 \\ 3x + 2y = 39 -  - eqn \: 2

For equation 1,square all terms to reduce it

√x²+√y²=169

x+y=13

Make x the subject as required by the question to use substitution method

x=13-y

Plug x=13-y into eqn 2

3(13-y)+2y=39

39-3y+2y=39

39-y=39

y=39-39=0

Plug y=0 into equation 1

x+0=13

x=0
