Answer:

b=-19

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that one of the solutions is x=-4/5

That is a solution to x. So if we plug in (-4/5) into the x in the equation, then it should equal 0.

5(-4/5)^2+b(4/5)+12=0

Now, just solve for b.

5(16/25)+b(4/5)+12=0

(16/5)+(4/5)b+12=0

(76/5)+(4/5)b=0

(4/5)b=-(76/5)

b=-19

You plan to take $450 u.s. on a trip to south africa. how many rands is this if one u.s. dollar equals 3.70 rands?
Mumz [18]
$1 = 3.70 rand

$450 is the same as 450 * $1, so multiply both sides of the conversion equation above by 450.

450 * $1 = 450 * 3.70 rand

$450 = 1665 rand

Montano1993 [528]

Using a system of equations, it is found that the correct option is:

A) 1389x+1660y=787x+1121y.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, considering the amounts in each olympics(1389 men and 787 women participated on the 19th, 1660 men and 1121 women in the 22th), the system is:

A) 1389x+1660y=787x+1121y.

  PLZZZZZZZ HELPP  Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of equations? {y=2x−15} {4x+3y=−5} (5, −5) (4, −7) (0, 6) (7
Sophie [7]

solution is (4, - 7 )

given the equations

y = 2x - 15 → (1)

4x + 3y = - 5 → (2)

substitute y = 2x - 15 into (2)

4x + 3(2x - 15) = - 5

4x + 6x - 45 = - 5

10x - 45 = - 5 ( add 45 to both sides )

10x = 40 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 4

substitute x = 4 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = (2 × 4 ) - 15 = 8 - 15 = - 7

solution is (4, - 7 )
