Answer:

A. 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between 3 times a number x and 2 is 19 is the same as writing an equation that is 3x-2=19.

Use this equation to solve for x.

3x-2=19 (Add 2 to both sides)

3x=21 (divide by 3)

x = 7

Which system has the same situation below?
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve the given system of equations.

<u>Given system</u>

x +3y= 10 ----(1)

-2x -2y= 4 ----(2)

From (2):

-2(x +y)= 4

Dividing both sides by -2:

x +y= -2 ----(2)

Thus, options 3 and 4 are incorrect as x +y≠ -2.

(1) -(2):

(x +3y) -(x +y)= 10 -(-2)

Expand:

x +3y -x -y= 10 +2

2y= 12

Divide both sides by 2:

y= 12 ÷2

y= 6

Substitute y= 6 into (2):

x +6= -2

x= -6 -2

x= -8

Options (1) and (2) differs only by the value of the expression of -x +y. Thus, let's find its value in the given system of equations.

-x +y

= -(-8) +6

= 8 +6

= 14

Thus, option 2 is the correct option.

Can someone answer this for me

The linear equation in standard form is:

6x - 7y = -11

Which is the last option.

<h3>How to get the equation of the line?</h3>

The line in slope-intercept form is written as:

y = a*x + b

We can see that the line passes through the points (-3, -1) and (1/2, 2), then the slope is:

a = \frac{2 - (-1)}{1/2 - (-3)}  = \frac{3}{3.5}  = \frac{6}{7}

Then we can write:

y = (6/7)*x + b

To find the value of b, we use the first point. It means that when x = -3, the value of y is -1, then we get:

-1 = (6/7)*-3 + b

-1 + 18/7 = b

-7/7 + 18/7 = b

11/7 = b

Then the equation is:

y = (6/7)*x + 11/7

If we multiply both sides by 7 we get:

7y = 6x + 11

Now we move the term with "x" to the left:

7y - 6x = 11

That is the line in standard form.

If we multiply both sides by -1, we get the last option:

6x - 7y = -11

Which equation describes a line that passes through (-6, 8) and is parallel to the line described by y = 2x − 4?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

hey, there!

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is a point (-6,8) through which a line passes. And is perpendicular to the line y = 2x-4

The equation for point (-6,8) is,

(y-8)= m1(x+6)...........(i)

and given equation is y = 2x-4............(ii)

Now, from equation (ii).

slope (m2)= 2 { as equation (ii) is in the form of y= mx+c where m is a slope}.

Now, For perpendicular,

m1×m2= -1

m1×2= -1

Therefore, m1 = -1/2.

Putting, the value of m1 in equation (i).

(y-8) = -1/2×(x+6)

2(y-8)= -1(x+6)

2y - 16 = -x -6

x+2y-10 = 0......... is the required equation.

Hope it helps...
