You would have to change it into an improper fraction which you would just subtract 14 from the numerator
y = 8 -2x
x + 2 (8 - 2x) = 1
x + 16 - 4x = 1
x - 4x = -15
-3x = -15
x = 5
If x = 5, then we can substitute in...
5 + 2y = 1
2y = -4
y = -2
Now let us check that by substituting those values in to the equation
2x + y = 8
2 (5) + (-2) = 8
That is correct so we have the right values for x and y/
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3000 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Initial Ascent to steady altitude = 35,000 feets
Descent to steady altitude = 32,000 feets
Number of feets the plane descend :
(Initial ascent to steady altitude - descent to steady altitude)
(35000 - 32000) feets = 3,000 feets
