Since they’re both in standard form and they both say that y is equal to something, you just have to set them up with one another
2x-10=4x-8
Subtract 2x
-10=2x-8
Add 8
-2=2x
Divide by 2
-1=x
x=-1
Check it by inserting it
2(-1)-10=4(-1)-8
-2-10=-4-8
-12=-12
So x=-1 is the answer

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Move all terms containing  x

to the left side of the equation.

Tap for fewer steps...

Subtract  4x from both sides of the equation.

2 x−10−4x= −8 y=4x−8

Subtract  4 x  from  2 x − 2 x− 10= − 8 y = 4 x − 8

Move all terms not containing  x  to the right side of the equation.

Tap for more steps...

− 2 x = 2 y = 4 x − 8

Divide each term by  − 2  and simplify.

Tap for fewer steps...

Divide each term in  − 2 x= 2  by  − 2 .

− 2 x − 2 = 2 − 2 y = 4 x − 8

Simplify the left side of the equation by cancelling the common factors.

Tap for fewer steps...

Reduce the expression by cancelling the common factors.

Tap for more steps...

− ( − 1 ⋅ x ) = 2 2 y = 4 x − 8

Rewrite  

− 1 ⋅ x  as  - x . x = 2 − 2 y = 4 x − 8

Divide  2  by  − 2 .

x = − 1 y = 4 x − 8

Replace all occurrences of  x  with the solution found by solving the last equation for  x . In this case, the value substituted is  − 1 . x= − 1 y = 4 ( − 1 ) − 8

Simplify  4 ( − 1 ) − 8 .

Tap for fewer steps...

Multiply  4 by  − 1 .

x = − 1 y = − 4 − 8

Subtract  8  from  - 4 .

x = − 1 y = − 12

The solution to the system of equations can be represented as a point.

( − 1 , − 12 )

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Point Form:  ( − 1 , − 12 )

Equation Form:  x  =− 1  ,y = − 12

A grocery store will only accept yellow onions that are at least 2.75 in. In diameter. A grower has a crop of onions with diamet
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate z-score firstly

z-score = (x-mean)/SD = (2.75-2.5)/0.25 = 0.25/0.25 = 1

P( x greater than or equal to 2.75) = P(z greater than or equal to 1)

= 1 - p(z <1)

P(z<1) from table = 0.84134

1-p(z<1) = 0.15866 or 15.866%

U - 4u + 4 = 7 what is U
valentina_108 [34]
Try to get the u’s on one side so for this to happen, you would subtract the four from both sides.
u - 4u = 7 - 4

combine like terms

-3u = 3

divide by -3

u = -1

What number should Rihanna use for the height of the parallelogram if she uses 28 inches for the base
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Height = 7in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for parallelogram

Base = 28in

Required

What is the height?

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal and the height is the distance between the parallel sides.

From the question, we have:

Base = 28in

Also from the question, the difference between the two parallel sides is 7in.

<em>Hence, the height of the parallelogram in 7in</em>
