Answer:

Multiply x + y = 3 by 3 and add it to -3x - 2y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

When using elimination to solve a system of equations, you multiply one equation by some number. The reason for doing this is that when you add it to the second equation, you want one variable to cancel out. When one variable cancels out (in this case x), you can solve for the other variable (in this case y). I will show this:

3(x + y = 3) = 3x + 3y = 9

   3x +  3y =  9

+ -3x + -2y = -7

---------------------------

              y  = 2

Now, knowing that y = 2, you can substitute y=2 into either equation to solve for x.

-3x - 2(2) = -7

-3x -4 = -7

-3x = -3

x = 1 | to double check (1, 2) as your answer plug these values into both equations

Finding this solution would not have been possible if not for cancelling out the x's above. The other three are wrong because none of the other options cancels out one of the variables.

Find the radius of the circle whose equation is x^2 + y^2 = 4.
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Radius of the given circle is r = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of the circle is x^2 + y^2 = 4.

Now we need to find the radius of the given circle x^2 + y^2 = 4.

To find that let's compare with the formula of the circle with is x^2 + y^2 = r^2, where r is the radius.

We get r^2 = 4

take square root of both sides.

r=2

Hence radius of the given circle is r = 2.

Suppose y varies directly with x, and y = -4 when x = 25. What is x when y = 10? SHOW ALL YOUR WORK HERE OR YOU WON'T GET CREDIT
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

x = -62.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx

-4 = k(25)

k = -4/25

y = (-4/25)x

10 = (-4/25)x

x = 10 × 25/-4

x = -62.5
