Answer:find the solution to the system of equations below.start by adding the equation

{-2x+2y=-8

{2x+y=5

Step-by-step explanation:The given system of equation are:

1----  y= x -4

2----- y=4 x+2

Equation (1) - Equation (2)

→0= x -4 - (4 x+2)

→0=  -3 x -6-----[Adding and subtracting like terms]

Adding 3 x on both sides

→3 x= -6

Dividing by 3 on both sides

→x = -2

→Substituting the value of x in equation 1, we get

y= -2 -4

y =-6

→Solution set =(x,y)=(-2, -6)

Don't used the graph to find the solution.

Find the y-intercept of a line parallel to 8x – 2y = 12 and passes through the point (5, 3).
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

-17

Step-by-step explanation:

8x -2y= 12

<em>Divide</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>whole</em><em> </em><em>equation</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>:</em>

4x -y= 6

<em>Rewrite the equation into the slope-intercept form (y=mx+c, where m is the gradient while c is the y-intercept).</em>

-y= -4x +6

y= 4x -6

Thus, gradient of given line= 4.

Since parallel lines have the same gradient, gradient of line= 4.

y= 4x +c

<em>To find the y-intercept of the lone, substitute a pair of coordinates.</em>

When x=5, y=3,

3= 4(5) +c

3= 20 +c

c= 3 -20

c= -17

Thus, the y-intercept of the line is -17.

Given rectangle QUAD, If DU = 5x - 4 and QP = 2x + 7, then find the length of DU.
ira [324]

Answer:

DU = 86

Step-by-step explanation:

Properties of a rectangle,

- Opposite sides are equal in measure.

- Diagonals of a rectangle are equal.

- Diagonals bisect each other.

In the given rectangle QUAD,

Diagonals AQ and DU bisect each other at P.

AQ = DU

2(QP) = DU [Since, AQ = 2(PQ)]

2(2x + 7) = 5x - 4

4x + 14 = 5x - 4

5x - 4x = 14 + 4

x = 18

Since, DU = 5x - 4

DU = 5(18) - 4

     = 90 - 4

     = 86

Therefore, measure of DU = 86 units

Tomas is making trail mix using granola and walnuts. He can spend a total of $12 on the ingredients. He buys 3 pounds of
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The first error that Tomas made was added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> represents the number of pounds of granola

y ----> represents the number of pounds of walnuts

we know that

The linear equation that represent this scenario is

2x+6y=12 -----> equation A

x=3 -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

2(3)+6y=12

6+6y=12

Subtract 6 both sides

6+6y-6=12-6

6y=6

Divide by 6 both sides

6y/6=6/6

y=1

so

The number of pounds of walnuts is 1

therefore

The first error that Tomas made was added 6 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 6

What is the perimeter of JKLM?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

KL = 12 because the triangle is isosceles ( base angles are congruent)

KJ = JM = 12 because the triangle is equilateral ( all angles are equal 60°)

the perimeter is

P = 9 + 12 + 12 +12 = 9 +36 = 45
