What is the value of x in the solution to the following system of linear equations? Y=3x+2 y=x-4

Mathematics
1 answer:
omeli [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:-3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=3x+2................(1)

y=x-4......................(11)

Subtract (11) from (1)

y-y=3x-x+2-(-4)

0=2x+2+4

0=2x+6

Collect like terms

0-6=2x

-6=2x

Divide both sides by 2

-6/2=2x/2

-3=x

x=-3

What is the y value in the solution to this system of linear equations?
Travka [436]

Answer:

The y-value is -20

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's solve this by Elimination method;

-2(4x + 5y = -12)

4(2x + 3y = -16)

Let's Distribute;

-8x - 10y = 24

8x + 12y = -64

So x cancels out because -8 + 8 = 0

-10y + 12y = 2y

24 - 64 = -40

2y = -40

Divide both sides by 2;

y = -20

Now lets plug in y to find the value of x;

4x + 5(-20) = -12

4x - 100 = -12

Add 100 to both sides;

4x = 88

Divide both sides by 4;

x = 22

Could ΔABC be congruent to ΔADC by SSS? Explain.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
There are 5 ways to test if two figures are congruent, namely;
side-angle-side(SAS)
Angle-side-angle (ASA)
Angle-angle-side(AAS)
Hypotenuse-leg (HL)
3 Sides (SSS)
here we shall focus on SSS. When the three corresponding sides of 2 figures say a triangle have the same length we will conclude that the triangles are congruent by SSS.
Therefore from our choices we can conclude that   triangles ABC and ADC are only congruent if the two other side have the same length and BC=DC.

The answer is yes;
B] Yes, but only if BC=DC

1/8 inch thick
inner diameter of 8.5

volume shell=volume total-volume shell


1/8=0.125

diameter/2=radius
radius inner=8.5/2=4.25
radiustotal=inner+outer=4.25+0.125=4.375


so

Vouter-Vinner=(4/3)pi4.375³-(4/3)pi4.25³
Vshell=(4/3)(pi)(4.375³-4.25)
Vshell=(4/3)(pi)(83.740234375-76.765625)
Vshell=(4/3)(pi)(6.974609375)

Solve.<br> 45 = 4(a + 3) – 3
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

a = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

45 = 4(a + 3) – 3

Add 3 to both sides.

48 = 4(a + 3)

Divide both sides by 4.

12 = a + 3

Subtract 3 from both sides.

9 = a

a = 9

Answer: a = 9
