Answer:

3x−4y=9 −3x+2y=9

Add these equations to eliminate x: −2y=18

Then solve−2y=18

for y: −2y=18 −2y −2 = 18 −2 (Divide both sides by -2)

y=−9

Now that we've found y let's plug it back in to solve for x.

Write down an original equation: 3x−4y=9

Substitute−9for y in 3x−4y=9: 3x−(4)(−9)=9

3x+36=9(Simplify both sides of the equation)

3x+36+−36=9+−36(Add -36 to both sides)

3x=−27 3x 3 = −27 3 (Divide both sides by 3) x=−9

Answer: x=−9 and y=−9

Hope This Helps!!!

A famous basketball player scored 97 points in a high scool game, breaking a national record. She made 43 more 2-point baskets t
ziro4ka [17]
X - 3pt  baskets  (he reaches 3x points)
y - 2pt baskets  (he reaches 2y points)

We know, that  y=x+43

97 - 1 free throw = 97 - 1 = 96
Sum of points:  96

3x + 2y = 96.   Substitute  to "y"  an expression "x+43" :

3x + 2(x+43)=96
3x+2x+86=96
5x=10    |:5
x=2 

So y=x+43=2+43=45 

He has made 2  three points baskets and 45 two points baskets

describe the graph of y=x^2 in words so that someone in a different room could understand exactly what it looks like explain wha
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

* y = x² is a quadratic function represented graphically by parabola opened upward with minimum vertex  (0 , 0) and y-intercept = 0

* The graph will move vertically up 5 units and its vertex will be

 (0 , 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ y = ax² + bx + c is a quadratic function

  Represented graphically by parabola, its vertex is (-b/2a , f(-b/2a))

∵ The value of a > 0 then the parabola open upward

∴ Its vertex is minimum

∵ The value of a < 0 then the parabola oped downward

∴ Its vertex is maximum

∵ The coefficient of x² = 1

∴ The parabola open upward

∵ The coefficient of x = 0

∴ Its vertex is (0 , 0) ⇒ x = 0/2(1) = 0 , f(0) = (0)² = 0

∴ The y-intercept = 0

∴ The parabola is oped upward , has minimum vertex (0 , 0)

   and passing through the origin

∵ 5 is added to y = x² , that means we add 5 to f(x) ⇒ f(x) + 5

∴ y = x² + 5 ⇒ that means the graph move vertically up 5 units

∴ Its vertex will be (0 , 5)

a shipping company charged $15 to ship a package and 5% to ensure the package what was total cost to ship this
postnew [5]

Answer:

15.75

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know 5% is 1/20 out of 100 (20x5=100) so then we need to set up the equation to find how much 5% of 15 is. Which is .75 cents. So we then add the 75 cents to the already $15 shipping fee to get an answer of 15 dollars and seventy five cents.
