What is the result of subtracting the second equation from the first?

Mathematics

dusya [7]4 years ago

Answer: 11x-8y=-9

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise you need to remember:

1) The mulitplication of signs:

(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-\\(+)(-)=-

2) By definition, like terms contain the same variables with the same exponent.

Then knowing this, and given the equations:

8x - 4y = -4 and -3x+ 4y = 5

You must subtract the like terms, which means that you must subtract the numerical coefficients of each term.

Then, you get the result is:

8x - 4y = -4\\-3x+ 4y = 5\\...............................................\\8x-(-3x)-4y-4y=-4-5\\8x+3x-8y=-9\\11x-8y=-9

you are planning a scavenger hunt for 20 campers. You plan to have 5 teams.one camper for each team will be recorder and the res
nikitadnepr [17]

Total number of campers = 20

Total number of teams = 5

⇒ Number of campers in each team = Total number of campers ÷ Total number of teams

⇒ Number of campers in each team = 20 ÷ 5

⇒ Number of campers in each team = 4

Number of recorders in each team = 1

⇒ Number of searchers in each team = Number of campers in each team - Number of recorders in each team

⇒ Number of searchers in each team = 4  - 1

⇒ Number of searchers in each team = 3

Hence, there will be 3 searchers in each team

Simplify |-3| + 6 ÷ (4 - 1) • 8.<br><br> 8<br> 13<br> 19<br> 24
zzz [600]

Answer:

C: <u>19</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

To start we would resolve the absolute value of |-3|. We know that absolute value is the distance from zero so it would be 3.

Our new equation is 3+6/(4-1)*8

Now we need to solve in the order of PEDMAS starting with parenthesis to get 3+6/3*8

Next in PEDMAS we have Division/Multiplication since we don't have any exponents. We do all the division and multiplication left to right so we would divide to get 3+2*8  and then multiply to get 3+16.

Finally, we only have addition left over so our answer would be 19

Assume that the sales of a certain appliance dealer are approximated by a linear function. Suppose that sales were $14,500 in 19
Korolek [52]
A linear function has the form : f(x)=ax+b

we are given that 

f(0)=a*0+b=b is <span>$14,500.

so the sales in the first year were </span>$14,500.

f(1) gives the sales in the second year     (year 83)
f(2) gives the sales in the third year          (year 84)
.
.
f(5) gives the sales in the sixths year        (year 87)


the slope of the line, a, is given by : 

\frac{f(5)-f(0)}{5-0}= \frac{65,500-14,500}{5}= 10,200

thus,

S=ax+b=10,200x+<span>14,500
</span>

Answer: S=10,200x+14,500
