Answer:

The solution would be (-4, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this simply add the two equations together.

-9x+7y=22

9x-5y=-26

----------------

2y = -4

y = -2

Now we have the y value, we can solve for the x value.

9x-5y=-26

9x-5(-2)=-26

9x+10=-16

9x=-36

x = -4

Write a scenario that could be represented by this equation: 3/4x = 12

Aneli [31]

Answer:

x=1 or x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4x = 12 or 0.75x = 12

3/4x/3/4 = 12/3/4 or 0.75x/0.75 = 12/0.75

x=12/1 / 3/4

x= 4/4

x = 1 or x = 16

To find the height of the peak, list the corresponding sides and angles of the two triangles you and Tyler have created. (6 poin

sukhopar [10]

We know that

Right triangles PBM and MTF are similar
because
angle PMB=angle TMF
and
angle BPM=angle FTM
and
angle B =angle F=90 degrees
so
corresponding sides are
BM and MF
PB and TF
PM and MT
(PB/TF)=BM/MF
solve for PB
PB=(TF*BM)/MF
where
TF=6ft
BM=20 ft
MF=3 ft
so
PB=(6*20)/3------> 40 ft

the answer is
the height of the peak is 40 ft

Simplify the following: 7-3[(n^3+8n)/(-n)+9n^2]

Pachacha [2.7K]

If you would like to simplify 7 - 3[(n^3 + 8n) / (-n) + 9n^2], you can do this using the following steps:

7 - 3[(n^3 + 8n) / (-n) + 9n^2] = 7 - 3[(-n^2 - 8) + 9n^2] = 7 - 3[-n^2 - 8 + 9n^2] = 7 - 3[ - 8 + 8n^2] = 7 - 3[8n^2 - 8] = 7 - 24n^2 + 24 = - 24n^2 + 31

The correct result would be - 24n^2 + 31.

O.9c + 1.89r = 17.01 c=18.9 - 2.1r equation answer

ikadub [295]

Answer:

$c=18.90-2.1r$

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

A chef bought $17.01 worth of ribs and chicken. Ribs cost 1.89 per pound and chicken costs 0.90 per pound. The equation 0.90 +1.89r = 17.01 represents the relationship between the quantities in this situation.

Show that each of the following equations is equivalent to 0.9c + 1.89r = 17.01.

Then, explain when it might be helpful to write the equation in these forms.

a. c=18.9-2.1r. b. r= -10÷2c+9

we have that

The linear equation in standard form is

$0.90c+1.89r=17.01$

where

c is the pounds of chicken

r is the pounds of ribs

step 1

Solve the equation for c

That means ----> isolate the variable c

Subtract 1.89r both sides

$0.90c=17.01-1.89r$

Divide by 0.90 both sides

$c=(17.01-1.89r)/0.90$

Simplify

$c=18.90-2.1r$

step 2

Solve the equation for r

That means ----> isolate the variable r

Subtract 0.90c both sides

$1.89r=17.01-0.90c$

Divide by 1.89 both sides

$r=(17.01-0.90c)/1.89$

Simplify

$r=9-0.48c$

therefore

The equation $c=18.90-2.1r$ is equivalent

The equation is helpful, because if I want to know the number of pounds of chicken, I just need to substitute the number of pounds of ribs in the equation to get the result.
