Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a piecewise function.

Since the value being asked to evaluate is -6, choose the part of the function that is applicable.

You would focus on $x\geq -6$ since you were given a -6 to evaluate.

Then use the expression that describes the function at that location.

$x^{2} - 1$

Plug in your value of -6

$(-6)^{2}-1\\ 36-1\\35$

1. What is the value of the y variable in the solution to the following system of equations?

ollegr [7]

Part 1)

we have

$3x-6y=3$ ------> equation A

$7x-5y=-11$ ------> equation B

Multiply by $-7$ the equation A

$-7(3x-6y)=-7*3$

$-21x+42y=-21$ ------> equation C

Multiply by $3$ the equation B

$3*(7x-5y)=-11*3$

$21x-15y=-33$ -------> equation D

Adds equation C and equation D

$-21x+42y=-21 \\21x-15y=-33\\---------- \\ 42y-15y=-21-33\\27y=-54 \\ y=-2$

therefore

the answer Part 1) is the option A

$y=-2$

Part 2)

we have

$3x+y=6$

$y=-3x+6$ ------> equation A

$6x+2y=8$

Simplify Divide by $2$ both sides

$3x+y=4$

$y=-3x+4$ ------> equation B

the lines A and B are parallel lines, because the slope m is equal

The system has no solution

therefore

the answer Part 2) is the option D

There is no x value as there is no solution to the system.

Part 3)

we have

$4x+2y=6$ ------> equation A

$x-y=3$

$y=x-3$ ------> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$4x+2[x-3]=6$

$6x-6=6$

$6x=12$

$x=2$

therefore

the answer part 3) is the option D

$x=2$

Part 4)

Let

x---------> The number of one-step equations

y---------> The number of two-step equations

we know that

$x+y=1,120$

$x=1,120-y$ -------> equation A

$3x-2y=1,300$ ------> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$3[1,120-y]-2y=1,300$

$3,360-5y=1,300$

$5y=3,360-1,300$

$5y=2,060$

$y=412$

therefore

the answer part 4) is the option D

$y=412$

Solve for x. 5(x – 10) = 30 – 15x

SIZIF [17.4K]

Hey!

The first step to solving this problem would be to distribute the parenthesis. We do this so that we can get rid of the parenthesis.

Original Equation :
5 ( x - 10 ) = 30 - 15x

New Equation {Changed by Distribution} :
5x - 50 = 30 - 15x

The next step would be to 50 to both sides. The reason we do that is to get rid of the 50 that is on the left side of the equation.

Old Equation :
5x - 50 = 30 - 15x

New Equation {Changed by Adding 50 to Both Sides} :
5x = 80 - 15x

And now we would add 15x to both sides to get rid of the -15x on the right side of the equation.

Old Equation :
5x = 80 - 15x

New Equation {Changed by Adding 15x to Both Sides} :
20x = 80

Now we divide both sides by 20 to get x on it's own.

Old Equation :
20x = 80

New Equation {Changed by Dividing Both Sides by 20} :
$\frac{20x}{20}$ = $\frac{80}{20}$

Finally, all we have to do is solve to find x.

Old Equation :
$\frac{20x}{20}$ = $\frac{80}{20}$

Solution {Old Equation Solved} :
x = 4

So, in the equation 5 ( x – 10 ) = 30 – 15x, x = 4.

Hope this helps!
