Can someone help me with system of equations?
umka21 [38]

#1)

Answer:

x=1 and y=12

Explanation:

y=5x+7

y=2x+10

This system should use substitution because the value of y is given in terms if x.

Substitution:

5x+7=2x+10

Solve:

3x=3

x=1

Substitute x to solve for y by plugging x into one if the original equations(doesn’t matter which one is used).

y=5x+7

y=5(1)+7

y=5+7

y=12

#2)

Answer:

x=-8 and y=2

Explanation:

y=2x+18

9y=-2x+2

This system also uses substitution. The value of y us already given in terms if c in the first equations, so we will substitute in the second equation.

Substitute:

9(2x+18)=-2x+2

Solve:

18x+162=-2x+2

20x=-160

x=-8

Now that we have the value if x, plug it into one of the original equations(doesn’t matter which equation) and substitute to find y.

y=2x+18

Substitute:

y=2(-8)+18

Solve:

y=-16+18

y=2

What’s 0.85 in simplest form
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

17/20

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the simplest form of 0.85 you need to turn it into a fraction.

To turn it into a fraction you put 85 over 100 since 0.85 is in the hundredths place.

85/100 can be simplified to 17/20 because 85/5 is 17 and 100/5 is 20

Is 81/4 considered a rational number
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction p/q where p and q are integers and q!=0. A rational number p/q is said to have numerator p and denominator q. Numbers that are not rational are called irrational numbers. The real line consists of the union of the rational and irrational numbers. The set of rational numbers is of measure zero on the real line, so it is "small" compared to the irrationals and the continuum.

The set of all rational numbers is referred to as the "rationals," and forms a field that is denoted Q. Here, the symbol  Q derives from the German word Quotient, which can be translated as "ratio," and first appeared in Bourbaki's Algèbre (reprinted as Bourbaki 1998, p. 671).

Any rational number is trivially also an algebraic number.

Examples of rational numbers include -7, 0, 1, 1/2, 22/7, 12345/67, and so on. Farey sequences provide a way of systematically enumerating all rational numbers.

The set of rational numbers is denoted Rationals in the Wolfram Language, and a number  x can be tested to see if it is rational using the command Element[x, Rationals].

The elementary algebraic operations for combining rational numbers are exactly the same as for combining fractions.

It is always possible to find another rational number between any two members of the set of rationals. Therefore, rather counterintuitively, the rational numbers are a continuous set, but at the same time countable.

(30 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST) Show all work to solve 3x^2 + 5x − 2 = 0.
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:    (x + 2)(3x - 1) = 0

x1 = -2

x2 = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

                                           3x² + 5x − 2 = 0

Multiply 3 x -2 = -6

Find two numbers that added = +5 and multiply -6

These numbers are +6  and -1

Then:

                                           3x² + 6x -1x − 2 = 0

Factorize                           3x (x + 2) - 1(x + 2) = 0

Factorize again                (x + 2)(3x - 1) = 0

Finally

                         x + 2 = 0               3x - 1 = 0

                         x = -2                     x = 1/3
