To find the ordered pair solution, you need to find the zero(s) (which are the x-values for which y is equal to zero). This is called the Zero Product Property. Here's the math:

-2x-y=4             convert the equation into slope form

-y=2x+4            multiply both sides by -1

y=-2x-4             convert into factored form

y=-2(x+2)          now, we need to find what x equals that makes y equal zero

0=-2(x+2)          replace y with zero

0/-2=x+2           divide both sides by -2

-2=x                  x=-2 when y=0

Therefore, the zero of the equation (aka the solution) is the ordered pair (-2,0). 

Answer: (-2,0)

If you have access to a graphing calculator, you can just convert the equation to y=mx+b form and enter it as a function. The solution is wherever the graph intercepts the x-axis. Hope this helps!

A clothing store spends $11 for each pair of shorts it produces and has fixed costs of $450. If the store makes 40 pairs of shor
zalisa [80]

Answer:

amt. the shop spends on 40 pairs

= $11 × 40

= $440

amt. paid extra (due to fixed cost) per pair

= ($450 - $440) ÷ 40

= $0.25

amt. per pair to break even

= $11 + $0.25

= $11.25

Maria’s family hosts a barbeque every month in the summer. In May, they bought 3.2 pounds of hamburger and 3 packages of hot dog
Sindrei [870]
Given:

May:
hamburger: 3.2 pounds * 4.25 = 13.60
hotdogs:     3 packages * 4      = 12
Total cost: 13.60 + 12 = 25.60

June:
hamburger: 3.2 pounds * 1 1/2 = 4.8 pounds * 4.25 = 20.4
hotdogs:      3 packages * 1/3    = 1 package * 4        =   4
Total cost: 20.4 + 4 = 24.4

25.60 - 24.40 = 1.20

They spent more on May by $1.20. Choice C.

Samuel can type nearly 40 words per minute. Use this information to find the number of hours it would take him to type 2.9 × 105
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Samuel can type 40 words per minute

Step-by-step explanation:.

Then how many hours will it take for him to type 2.6 words times 10 to the power of five words

=> 2.6 words time 10 to the power of 5

=> 2.6 x 10^5

=> 2.6 x 100 000

=> 260 000 words in all.

Now, we need to find the number of words Samuel can type in a hour

=> 40 words / minutes , in 1 hour there are 60 minutes

=> 40 x 60

=> 2 400 words /hour

Now, let’s divide the total of words he need to type to the number of words he can type in an hour

=> 260 000 / 2 400

=> 108.33 hours.

The length of one side of a square pond is 15 feet. The pond is surrounded by a 3 foot wide walkway. What is the total area of t
rewona [7]

Answer:

Area = 324 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length = 15ft

Walkway = 3ft

Required

Determine the area of the pond + the walkway

To calculate the required area, we need to get the total length of a side .

This is calculated by adding the length of a side of the pond and the side of the walkway

Total Length = Pond Length + Walkway

Total Length = 15ft + 3ft

Total Length = 18ft

Now, the required area can be calculated as thus:

Area = Total Length * Total Length

Area = 18ft * 18ft

Area = 324 ft²
