Answer:

(- 1, 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x + 4 → (1)

y = - 5x - 2 → (2)

Substitute y = x + 4 into (2)

x + 4 = - 5x - 2 ( add 5x to both sides )

6x + 4 = - 2 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

6x = - 6 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = - 1

Substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (1)

y = - 1 + 4 = 3

solution is (- 1, 3 )

Answer:

(-1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve using substitution, you have to know the value of either x or y. in this example, they gave you the value of y already: y=x+4.

this means you can substitute the y for (x+4). if we substitute y for (x+4) in the equation y=-5x-2, we get this:

(x+4)=-5x-2

then solve for x

6x=-6

so x=-1

since we know the x value, we can solve for y

y=x+4

y=-1+4

y=3

so the final answer is (-1, 3)

A movie theater decreased the size of its popcorn bags by 20%. If the old bags held 15 cups of popcorn, how much do the new bags
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

<em>Your answer will be </em>12<em> cups of popcorn.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much the new bags hold, you need to find out the discount.

\frac{20}{100 } = .2

15 * .2 = 3

<em>We know that the discount is </em>3<em>.</em>

<em>To figure out how much the new bags hold, subtract by the old bags.</em>

15 - 3 = 12

<em>The new bags hold 12 cups of popcorn. </em>

Log(x+6)-log(x-3)=1<br><br> I need to show work, please show me how
Illusion [34]

Answer:

x = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

log(x + 6)- log(x - 3) = 1

Using the law log a - log b = log a/b:

log (x + 6)/ (x - 3) = 1

Removing logs:

(x + 6)/ (x - 3) = 10

x+ 6 = 10x - 30

9x = 36

x = 4 (answer).
