Answer:

(5,-1)

x=5

y= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we're going to solve for one variable in either equation

so we have

x+y=4

We can subtract y and 4 from both sides to get

x-4= -y

Then divide by -1 so that y will be a positive number

-x+4=y

We can plug this in for y in the other equation

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

Distribute the -2 and get

2x+2x-8=12

Combine like terms and add 8 to get

4x=20

divide and get x=5

Plug in x=5 into the first equation to get

5+y=4

subtract 5 to get y= -1

Our answer is (5,-1) or x=5 y= -1

I checked this on desmos and the math is correct

Answer:

The solution to the system of equations will be:

x = 5, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equations

x + y = 4

2x - 2y = 12

Isolate x for x + y = 4:    x = 4 - y

substitute x = 4 - y in the equation 2x - 2y = 12

2(4-y) - 2y = 12

8 - 2y - 2y = 12

8 - 4y = 12

4y = 8 - 12

4y = -4

divide both sides by 4

4y/4 = -4/4

y = -1

substitute y = -1 in x + y = 4

x + y = 4

x + (-1) = 4

x - 1 = 4

x = 5

so

(x, y) = (5, -1)

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations will be:

x = 5, y = -1

Emma has a board 5 feet long and cuts it into 6 equal pieces how long in feet is eacgpeace if the board in a fraction
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Imagine an easier version of this problem:  You have a board 5 feet long that you must cut (divide, right?) into two equal parts.  It is probably clear to you that you simply divide the length (5) by the number of parts you're dividing it into (2) to obtain the length of each piece (2.5 feet).

Use the same method for your problem 5 feet divided by 6 is 0.83 feet per piece.

We do not ordinarily divide feet into decimal portions, but instead into inches.  Since an inch is 1/12 of a foot, you could simply say 5/6 = how many twelfths?  or 5/6 = n/12  Solve this by inspection or by cross multiplying 5 times 12 equals n times 6.  So n must equal 10, and your pieces of board are each 10 inches long.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given lines (0,-2) and (4,1)
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Slope Formula: m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Step 1: Define

(0, -2) y-intercept

(4, 1) random point

Step 2: Find slope <em>m</em>

<em />m=\frac{1-(-2)}{4-0}<em />

<em />m=\frac{1+2}{4}<em />

<em />m=\frac{3}{4}<em />

y = 3/4x + b

Step 3: Write linear equation

y = 3/4x - 2
