Step 1:
4y + x = 15
−9x + 5y = 20
Step 2: correct
4y + x = 15
x = 15 − 4y
Step 3: wrong
4y + x = 15
4y + (15 − 4y) = 15 wrong step
4y + 15 − 4y = 15
15 = 15
***once you have solved for a variable in one equation, you substitute it in the other equation
Corrected Step 3:
−9x + 5y = 20
-9(15 - 4y) + 5y= 20
(-9*15) + (-9*-4y) + 5y= 20
-135 + 36y + 5y= 20
-135 + 41y= 20
add 135 to both sides
41y= 155
divide both sides by 41
y= 155/41 or 3 32/41 or 3.78
ANSWER: The x value in step 2 should have been substituted in the opposite equation in step 3. The y solution would then be 155/41 or 3 32/41 or 3.78
Hope this helps! :) Would love to be marked brainliest.
The number is 6400.
We have given that,
divided 80 by my number, and then added 13.
<h3>What is the expression?</h3>
An expression or mathematical expression is a finite combination of symbols that is well-formed according to rules that depend on the context.
Suppose the number is x

Subtract 13 from both sides


Multiply both sides by 80

x=6400
Therefore the number is 6400.

Answer: ∠B = 50°
∠BCD = 40°
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
ACB is a right triangle where ∠A = 40° and ∠C = 90°.
Use the Triangle Sum Theorem for ΔABC to find ∠B:
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
40° + ∠B + 90° = 180°
∠B + 130° = 180°
∠B = 50°
BCD is a right triangle where ∠B = 50° and ∠D = 90°.
Use the Triangle Sum Theorem for ΔBCD to find ∠C:
∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 180°
50° + ∠C + 90° = 180°
∠C + 140° = 180°
∠C = 40°

Answer:
y=2x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b is point slope form.
let m= the slope
b=y intercept
the y intercept is -2
y=mx-2
then after finding the slope (2) put that in
y=2x-2
