Answer:
(1,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation? y = 7 x − 3
a. (1,4) b. (-1,-4) c. both d. neither
Solution
y=7x-3
Solve by trying each ordered pair
a. (1,4)
x=1, y=4
Substituting the value of x and y into the equation
y=7x-3
4=7(1)-3
4=7-3
4=4
This is a true statement
b. (-1,-4)
x=-1, y=-4
Substitute the value into the equation
y=7x-3
-4=7(-1)-3
-4= -7-3
-4= -11
This is not a true statement
This true statement is when x=1 and y=4
So, the ordered pair (1, 4) is the solution
Answer:
137 votes
Step-by-step explanation:
considering an election with 681 votes and 5 candidates up for the election
dividing the votes among'st 5 candidates
= 681 / 5 = 136.2 hence the least number of first-place votes needed by a candidate using the plurality method would be = 137 votes
136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 = 681 ( dividing the votes equally )
136 + 136 + 136 + 136+136 = 680
hence the remaining vote = 681 - 680 = 1
least first-place vote = 136 + 1 = 137 votes
2(3x - 4) = 2x + 12
6x - 8 = 2x + 12
4x = 20
x = 5
AB = 3(5) - 4 = 11
AC = 2(5) + 12 = 22
BC = 7(5) - 2 = 35 - 2 = 33
AC:BC = 22:33 = 2:3
Answer:
h = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming your periods are multiplication signs.
(h + h) X (h X h) = 16
When adding two variables like the first set of parentheses, it would become 2h. When multiplying two like variables, you add the exponents. h is the same as writing h¹. So h¹ x h¹ gives you the answer of h².
So now your equation would look like:
2h X h² = 16
As above, when you multiply two like variables you would add the exponents. Also if any number are in front of the variable you would multiply those numbers. So you have 2h¹ x 1h² and that would be 2h³. If it had been
2h¹ x 2h², your answer would have been 4h³.
But so far you have 2h¹ x 1h² = 16
2h³ = 16
Dividing both sides by 2 you get
h³ = 8
To find h you have to take the cubed root of 8. What number multiplied by itself 3 times gives you 8? 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 2 x 2 = 4 and x 2 = 8.
h = 2
If you put this into the original equation you have:
(2 + 2) x ( 2 x 2) = 16
( 4 ) x ( 4 ) = 16
