Mathematics
1 answer:

Answer:

(3, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for a system of equations, use substitution.

First, solve for one variable in an equation.

2x - 3y = 15

Add 3y to both sides.

2x = 3y + 15

Divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself.

x = 1.5y + 7.5

Put this in the other equation.

5x + 2y = 9

Substitute the variable.

5(1.5y + 7.5) + 2y = 9

Distribute the 5 inside the 1.5y + 7.5.

7.5y + 37.5 + 2y = 9

Combine like terms.

9.5y + 37.5 = 9

Subtract 37.5 from both sides.

9.5y = -28.5

Divide both sides by 9.5.

y = -3.

Now take this value and put it in the other equation to get your x.

2x - 3y = 15

Substitute variable.

2x - 3(-3) = 15

Multiply.

2x + 9 = 15

Subtract 9 from both sides.

2x = 6

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 3.

Your pair is (3, -3).

Solve the system by substitution.<br> [-2.5x+y = 13.5<br> 12.25x - y=-12.25
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

x = 5/39 , y = 539/39

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{y - 2.5 x = 13.5

12.25 x - y = -12.25

In the first equation, look to solve for y:

{y - 2.5 x = 13.5

12.25 x - y = -12.25

y - 2.5 x = y - (5 x)/2 and 13.5 = 27/2:

y - (5 x)/2 = 27/2

Add (5 x)/2 to both sides:

{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)

12.25 x - y = -12.25

Substitute y = 1/2 (5 x + 27) into the second equation:

{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)

1/2 (-5 x - 27) + 12.25 x = -12.25

(-5 x - 27)/2 + 12.25 x = 12.25 x + (-(5 x)/2 - 27/2) = 9.75 x - 27/2:

{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)

9.75 x - 27/2 = -12.25

In the second equation, look to solve for x:

{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)

9.75 x - 27/2 = -12.25

9.75 x - 27/2 = (39 x)/4 - 27/2 and -12.25 = -49/4:

(39 x)/4 - 27/2 = -49/4

Add 27/2 to both sides:

{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)

(39 x)/4 = 5/4

Multiply both sides by 4/39:

{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)

x = 5/39

Substitute x = 5/39 into the first equation:

{y = 539/39

x = 5/39

Collect results in alphabetical order:

Answer: {x = 5/39 , y = 539/39

Look at the figure shown below: Which step should be used to prove that point A is equidistant from points C and B?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Combine points A with C and A with B. Consider ΔABD and ΔACD:


1. AD is common side, then  AD\cong AD;


2.   CD\cong BD  - given in the diagram;


3.  \angle ADB\cong \angle ADC .


By SAS Postulate,  \triangle ABD\cong \triangle ACD . Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding sides and congruent corresponding angles, so  AC\cong AB .


From this proof you can see that correct choice is option D (In triangles ABD and ACD, two sides and an included angle are equal.)

The amount of rhubarb in the original recipe is 3 1/2 cups. Using what you know of whole numbers and what you know of fractions,
Alexxx [7]
The easiest way, I think, is to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction, then multiply by 3.
3 1/2 = 7/2
7/2 · 3 = 21/2
now just change the improper fraction back to a mixed number by dividing and putting the remainder into fraction form
21/2 = 10 1/2

You could also multiply the whole number by 3 and the fraction by 3, ending up with 9 3/2, but then have to convert the improper fraction into a mixed number
3/2 = 1 1/2
then add the numbers together
9 + 1 1/2 = 10 1/2
either way works, whatever is easiest for you.
