Since y=(3/2)x-2
subsitute 3/2x-2 for y in 2nd equation
2x+3/2x-2=-4
add 2 to both sides
2x+3/2x=-2
times  2 both sides
4x+3x=-4
7x=-4
divide both sides by 7
x=-4/7
sub that back
y=3/2x-2
y=3/2(-4/7)-2
y=-12/14-2
y=-6/7-2
y=-6/7-14/7
y=-20/7


(x,y)
(-4/7,-20/7)

Rewrite the 2nd equation as 

y = -4 -2x

then substitute into the 1st equation so you get

-4 - 2x =  \frac{3}{2} x - 2

then solve for x. 

when you get the value of x, substitute it into either equation to find y

hope it helps

Solve x 2 - 4x - 7 = 0 by completing the square. What are the solutions?
Bingel [31]

Answer:

x = 2±sqrt(11)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 -4x - 7 =0

Add 7 to each side

x^2 -4x -7+7 =0+7

x^2 -4x =7

To complete the square take the coefficient of the x term and  divide by 2 and then square it.  Add it to both sides

-4 /2 = -2 then square

(-2)^2 = 4

Add 4 to both sides

x^2 -4x+4 =7+4

x^2 -4x+4 = 11

Factor the left side into (x-b/2)^2

(x-2)^2 =11

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-2)^2) =±sqrt(11)

x-2 = ±sqrt(11)

Add to to each side

x-2+2 = 2±sqrt(11)

x = 2±sqrt(11)

A car rental company charges $10 a day and 17 cents per mile to rent their cars. If the total charge for a 2-day rental were $61
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

245 miles driven.

Step-by-step explanation:

A car rental company charges $10 a day and 17 cents per mile to rent their cars. 17 cents = 0.17 dollars

Let x be the number of miles and y be the number of days

total change =0.17x  + 10y

Given total change is 61.65 and number of days = 2

plug in the values and find out the number of miles

61.65 = 0.17 x + 2(10)

61.65 = 0.17 x + 20

subtract 20 on both sides

41.65 = 0.17x

Divide by 0.17 on both sides

x = 245

245 miles driven.

Factor Polynomial<br> 3y^2+y-14
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

<em>Factored Form: </em><em> </em><em>( y - 2 )( 3y + 7 )</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>1. Let us first write down the problem at hand: </em>3y^2 + y - 14

<em>2. Now let us break this expression into groups:  </em>

3y^2 - 6y + 7y - 14  ⇒ ( 3y^2 - 6y )( 7y - 14 )

<em>3. Factor 3y from 3y^2 - 6y:</em>

3y^2 - 6y ⇒ 3y( y - 2 )

<em>4. Factor 7 from 7y - 14:</em>

7y - 14 ⇒ 7( y - 2 )

<em>5. Substitute Step #3, 4 ⇒ Step #2:</em>

3y( y - 2 ) + 7( y - 2 )

<em>6. Factor common term y - 2:</em>

<em>Answer: ( y - 2 )( 3y + 7 )</em>

Matteo spends a total of 38 min exercising. He walks for 6 min to warm up and then runs at a constant rate of 8 min per mile for
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

No, he not correct because he only ran 4 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

If he walks for 6 min out of the 38 min, then he ran for 32 min.

d = rt        1 mi = 8r

r = 1/8 = 1 mi/8 min   Since he ran 32 min we have

d = 1/8(32) = 4 mi.

No, he not correct because he only ran 4 mi
