Answer:

y = 1, x = - 8

(-8, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + 4y = 12

x + y = -7

add the equations together

0x + 5y = 5

5y = 5

y = 1

substitute y for 1 in one of the original equations to find x

x + y = -7

x + 1 = -7

x + 1 - 1 = - 7 - 1

x = - 7 - 1

x = -8

Answer:

vertex

Step-by-step explanation:

vertex

If the coefficient a > 0, then the parabola opens upward and the vertex is the lowest point on the parabola. We say that k is the minimum value of the quadratic function. On the other hand, if the coefficient a < 0, then the parabola opens downward and the vertex is the highest point on the parabola.

Answer:

8.3 L/s

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer you need to find the slope also known as the rate of change. When you find slope it is always change in y over change in x.

$\frac{399-150}{40-10}$
