3x-5y=4------eq1
4x+3y=15-------------eq2
multiply 3 to first eq and 5 to second eq.
9x-15y=12
20x+15y=75
subtract both eqs
29x=87 x=3 so put x in eq 1
3(3)-5y=4
5y=5
y=1
Answer:
Perpendicular: -2/5
Parallel: 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept formula is y=mx+b, where mx is the slope.
So in the equation y = 5/2x, 5/2 is understood as the slope.
To find a perpendicular slope you have to do the opposite (sign), reciprocal (flip denominator and numerator) of the original number.
Therefore 5/2 become negative, and then the numerator and denominator switch sides. (-2/5)
Parallel slope is the exact same as the original one so nothing changes. (5/2)
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract the y values and put them in the numerator (top of fraction). 9-4=5.
Subtract the x values and put them in the denominator (bottom) 5-0=5.
Put the numbers in the fraction and simplify. 5/5 = 1.
Think of x(symbol)y as a function like f(x)=3x-y. Since the first symbol we see is in parenthesis, we know that x=-1 and y=-2. Plug that into f(x), and you get 3(-1)-(-2)=-1. So know we have the x value for the second symbol, which is -1, and the y value, which is seen to the right: (-3). Plug that back into f(x), and you get 3(-1)-(-3)= 0. Your answer should be A: 0.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>From the similarity of triangles GHJ and JHI we get:</u>
- JH / HI = GH / JH ⇒ JH ² = GH · HI ⇒ JH = √GH · HI
This is a expression of the geometric mean
