Answer: x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Concept:</u>

There are three ways to solve the system of equations

  • Substitution
  • Elimination
  • Graphing

Here, we would use <u>substitution </u>because we have two same variables.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<u>Solve:</u>

Given

y = -2x + 8

y = x - 4

Substitute

-2x + 8 = x - 4

Add 4 on both sides

-2x + 8 + 4 = x - 4 + 4

-2x + 12 = x

Add 2x on both sides

-2x + 12 + 2x = x + 2x

12 = 3x

Divide 3 on both sides

12 / 3 = 3x / 3

x = 4

Hope this helps!! :)

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (-5, 19) and (5.13).
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

y=-3/5x+16

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(13-19)/(5-(-5))

m=-6/(5+5)

m=-6/10

simplify

m=-3/5

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-19=-3/5(x-(-5))

y-19=-3/5(x+5)

y=-3/5x-15/5+19

y=-3/5x-3+19

y=-3/5x+16

Find the sum of the first 18 terms of the arithmetic sequence whose nth term is an = 3n - 1.
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

495

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the sum of the first 18 terms you have to find the 18th term and the first term using the equation given.

a1=3(1)-1        a1=2

a18=3(18)-1   a18= 53

Then plug in 53 for an, 18 for n, and 2 in for a1 in the sum equation: Sn=n/2(a1+an)  

Sn=18/2(2+53)  Solve for sn= 495
