Answer:

x = -4 and y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you have y = -x + 8 you can substitute this into the first equation where y was so you have 3x + 4(-x + 8) = 36.

That way, there is only one variable and it is easier to solve.

3x + 4(-x + 8) = 36

3x -4x + 32 = 36

-x +32 = 36

-x = 4

x = -4

Plugging this into the equation y = -x +8,

y = -(-4) + 8

y = 4 + 8

y = 12

A panther cub weighs 890 grams. At birth the cub weighed 450 grams. What is the percent increase in the panther cub's weight rou
Ksju [112]

Answer: 98%

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract the birth weight from the new weight (890-450=440). To find what percent of 450 that is, divide the difference by 450 (440/450=97.78). Round to the nearest whole number (97.78==>98).

What is the answer to this problem? Ignore the work. What is the correct answer?
yan [13]

Answer:

c = 42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The legs of the triangle are a and b and the hypotenuse is c

Let a be the shorter leg

The hypotenuse is 5 more than the longest leg

c = b+5

The shortest leg is 20

a = 20

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 +b^2 = c^2

Substituting in what we know from above

20 ^2 + b^2 = (b+5)^2

FOIL  (b+5)^2 = b^2 +5b+5b +25 = b^2+10b+25

400 + b^2 = b^2+10b+25

Subtract b^2 from both sides

400+b&2-b^2 = b^2 -b^2 +10b+25

400 = 10b+25

Subtract 25 from both sides

400-25 = 10b+25-25

375 = 10b

Divide by 10

375/10 = 10b/10

37.5 = b

But we want to find c

c=b+5

c = 37.5+5

c = 42.5

The smaller triangle is a dilation of the larger triangle with a center of dilation at (2,−1) .
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Option B. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller triangle is a dilation of the larger triangle with the center of dilation at (2, -1).

we have to calculate the scale factor of the dilation.

One point of the large triangle is (-4, -1). After dilation it has become (-1, -1) of the smaller one.

If we consider the x coordinates of the point x = -4 has reduced down to -1 therefore scale factor = side of small triangle/side of the large triangle = (2 + 1)/(2 + 4) = 3/6 = 1/2

Therefore Option B. 1/2 is the answer.

Write the equation of line in slope-intercept form :Line parallel to the y-axis that passes through the point (77,88) PLZ HELP
sammy [17]

A line parallel to the y-axis that passes through (77,88) is x = 77.  There is no slope-intercept form of this equation if our coordinate system is based upon a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis.
