Answer:

x = 12 , y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x , y are two numbers.

x > y

1 ) Three times the greater is 18 times their

difference

3x = 18( x - y )

x = 6( x - y )

x = 6x - 6y

6y = 5x

y = 5x/6 ——-( 1 )

2 ) 4 times the smaller is 4 less than twice

the sum of the two

4y + 4 = 2 ( x + y )

2y + 2 = x + y

y = x -2 ——( 2 )

From ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) ,

5x/6 = x -2

( 5x /6 ) - x = -2

( 5x - 6x ) /6 = -2

-x = -12

x = 12

Put x = 12 in equation ( 2 ) , we get

y = 12 - 2

y = 10

Therefore ,

x = 12 , y = 10

If 2x+y=8 and x-1=y then what is y? Please be detailed I want to know more then just the answer but how to solve
IgorLugansk [536]
This is Bridge Algebra 2 stuff. Well you see that 2x+y=8 and x-1=y. To slove for y you have to slove for x first to find y. So 2x+x-1=8 ( the reason I did that is because there is a y in that equation and I placed it on that equation) now lets slove this equation for x. So 3x-1=8( I add 2x with x) 3x=9 ( I made -1 a positive one and add it to 8) x=3 ( I divided 9/3 to get 3). Now that you have slove x we will use x to slove for y. So 3-1=y, 2=y. Your answer is y=2.

Which graph represents y = StartRoot x EndRootWhat is the solution of StartFraction 1 Over c minus 3 EndFraction minus StartFrac

The equation is undefined for singularity points at 0, 3, then c ≠ 0, c ≠ 3

<h3>What is the graph of the parent function (y)?</h3>

The set of all coordinates (x, y) in the plane that satisfy the equation y = f(x) is the graph of the function. Suppose a  function is only specified for a small set of input values, the graph of the function will only have a small number of points, in which each point's x-coordinate represents an input number and its y-coordinate represents an output number.

From the given information,

  • The domain for the \mathbf{y=\sqrt{x}} is at x ≥ 0,
  • The range is the set of values that the dependent variable for which the function is defined. f(x) ≥ 0.

In the second question:

\mathbf{\dfrac{1}{c-3}-\dfrac{1}{c}= \dfrac{3}{c(c-3)}}

Multiply by LCM

  • c - (c - 3) = 3

Solve c - (c - 3) = 3: True for all c

c ≠ 0, c ≠ 3

Therefore, we can conclude that since the equation is undefined for singularity points at 0, 3, then c ≠ 0, c ≠ 3
