5x - 9 ≤ 21
5x ≤ 21 + 9
5x ≤ 30
x ≤ 30 ÷ 5
x ≤ 6
7x+2=23
Move 2 to the other side
7x=23-2
7x=21
To isolate the x divide both sides by 7
x=3
To check plug the value of x back in
7(3)+2=23
21+2=23
23=23
Answer:
A. x=2, y = 7.
B. (2, 7).
Step-by-step explanation:
A. You can eliminate y by subtracting the equations:
y = 8x - 9
y = 4x - 1 Subtract:
0 = 4x - 8
4x = 8
x = 8/4 = 2.
Now substitute for x in the first equation:
y = 8(2) - 9 = 7.
Check in the second equation:
y = 4x - 1
7 = 4(2) - 1 = 7. Check is OK.
B. On the graph they will intersect at the point (2, 7).
They will intersect here because the values x=2 and y=7 satisfy both the 2 equations.
Answer:
Oh, how morbid these interest problems are.
Are you asking how much they would recieve in a year?
If so:
40000/100=400
400*60=$24000 a year
