Answer:

(-3,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve using substitution, first isolate one variable in one of the given equations. Then, substitute the value you received from that equation for the matching variable in the second equation. Finally, substitute that value back into any of the equations to have both the x and y values.

1) The y in y = x + 8 is already isolated, so let's substitute that value for the y in x + y = 2. Substitute x + 8 for y in x + y = 2, then solve:

x + y = 2\\x + (x + 8) = 2 \\x + x + 8 = 2\\2x + 8 = 2 \\2x = -6\\x =-3\\

Therefore, the x-value of the solution is -3.

2) Substitute the x value back into any of the one equations to find the value. Any choice is fine - in my work, I chose to substitute -3 for the x in y = x + 8:

y = x + 8 \\y = (-3) + 8\\y = -3 + 8\\y = 5

Therefore, the y-value of the solution is 5.

3) Thus, the solution is (-3, 5).

Stolb23 [73]
Since he has to give 50, and 12.25*p is the amount of money he has to spend (since it's 12.25 per pizza), we have 50-12.25=change

What will be the multipicative inverse of 2/3?
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplicative inverse also known as reciprocal implies it is something that is the opposite.

The given value is 2/3, so the opposite would just mean you flip the numerator and denominator. Thus, the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2.
