Answer:

x=1, y=7

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x + 10 - first equation

y=-3x + 4 - second equation

rearrange the expression to

-3x-y= -10

3x-y= -4

pick an equation and simplify; lets pick the second equation

3x-y= -4

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{-4+y}{3}  

divide 3 by both sides

x= \frac{-4+y}{3} - third equation

substitute the value of x into an equation; lets pick the first equation

-3x-y= -10

-3(\frac{-4+y}{3})- y = -10

simplify. -3 cancels 3 so we are left with

-1(-4+y)-y = -10

simplify

4-y-y= -10

4-2y= -10

subtract 4 from both sides

-2y= -10-4

-2y= -14

divide -2 by both sides

y=7

substitute the value of y, (y=7) in an equation, we are using the second equation

3x-y= -4

3x-7= -4

3x = -4+7

3x= 3

divide 3 by both sides

x=1

so the answer is x=1, y=7

What’s the correct answer for this?
Lynna [10]

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

tan x= 6/8

usually tan θ = perpendicular / base

So,

we get perpendicular = 6, base = 8

Now using Pythagorean Theorem to find hypotenuse

hyp² = base² + Perp²

hyp² = 8² + 6²

hyp²= 64 + 36

hyp²=100

Taking sq root on both sides

hypotenuse = 10

Now

sin θ = Perpendicular / Hyp

sin x = 6 / 10

Now

cos θ = base / Hyp

cos x = 8 / 10

The house has a form of a rectangle with one side two and a half times as long as the other side. a Construct the expression for
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer: A=2.5x^{2}


Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's write the following formula for calculate the area of a rectangle:

A=yx

Where y is the lenght (the longer side) and x is the width (the shorter side).

2. You know that the length is 2.5 times as long as the other side, which indicates a multiplication. Then:

y=2.5x

3. So, you must substitute y into the equation for calculate the area of the rectangle and then you must simplify.

4. Then, you obtain the following expression:

A=(2.5x)(x)\\A=2.5x^{2}

from 1970 to 1980 the consumer price index increased from 38.8 to 82.4. If a container of onion dip cost $0.48 in 1970 and the p
Vikki [24]
We need to find the percent increase from 38.8 to 82.4, so

x * 38.8 = 82.4
x = 82.4/38.8
x = 2.1237

Multiply by 100 to convert to percentage (move decimal 2 places to the right)

2.1237 = 212.37%

Now we can apply this percentage increase to the onion dip...

0.48 x 212.37% =
0.48 x 2.1237 = 1.019 
 
Round to the nearest cent $1.02 is the amount of increase.  Now add it to the original price to get today's price...

$1.02 + .48 = $1.50
