Hey there!
y = -2x + 19
y = x + 7
We gonna solve this system of equation by using the substitution method.
We wanna solve y = -2x + 19 for y
Let start by substitute -2x + 19 for y in y = x + 7
y = x + 7
-2x + 19 = x + 7
Subtract x from both sides
-2x + 19 - x = x + 7 - x
-3x + 19 = 7
Now subtract 19 on both sides
-3x + 19 - 19 = 7 - 19
-3x = -12
Then divide both sides by -3
-3x/-3 = -12/-3
x = 4
We have the value of x. Now we gonna use that same value to find the value for y.
We gonna do that by substitute 4 for x in y = -2x + 19
y = -2x + 19
y = -2(4) + 19
y = -8 + 19
y = 11
Thus,
The answer is: x = 4 and y = 11
Let me know if you have questions about the answer. As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!
Answer:
John have to pay back $23,327.50 at the end of two years
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple Interest (I) = (PRT) ÷ 100
where P = Principal, R = Rate, T= Time
I = ($150500 × 7.75 × 2) ÷ 100
I = ($2332750) ÷ 100
I = $23,327.50
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation of a circle with center (a, b) and radius r is given by the equation;
The constant in the right hand side of the equation is simply the square of the radius;
We have been given the following equation;
(x-3)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 16
Comparing this with the general equation above;
You use distributive property. So (5 x 2)-(5 x x)= 10 - 5x.

Step-by-step explanation:
Brittany paints the room in x hours, completing 1/x of the room per hour.
Ashley paints the room in x+2 hours, completing 1/(x+2) of the room per hour.
Working together, they complete 1/x + 1/(x+2) = ⅐ of the room per hour.
7(x+2) + 7x = x(x+2)
14x + 15 = x^2 + 2x
x^2 - 12x - 15 = 0
x = [12 ±√(12²+60)]/2= 6±√51
6-√51 is an extraneous solution.
x = 6+√51 ≈ 13.14
Brittany paints the room in 12.14 hours
