What is the solution to this system of equations? 4x + 5y = 7

Answer:

(-2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 5y = 7

3x - 2y = -12

Let's solve this by elimination. We want to eliminate one variable at a time. This means we need to multiply the equations to create a common multiple to cancel out a variable.

Let's work with y.

5y and -2y: For these values to cancel out, we need to multiply each term to create a common multiple.

2(4x + 5y = 7)

5(3x - 2y = -12)

Multiply.

8x + 10y = 14

15x - 10y = -60

Eliminate.

23x = -46

Divide both sides by 23.

x = -2

Now that we know x, let's plug it back into one of equations to find y.

4x + 5y = 7

4(-2) + 5y = 7

Multiply.

-8 + 5y = 7

Add.

5y = 15

Divide.

y = 3

Now we know x and y; let's plug both back into the equation we have not checked yet.

3x - 2y = -12

3(-2) - 2(3) = -12

Multiply.

-6 - 6 = -12

Subtract.

-12 = -12

Your solution is correct.

(-2, 3)

Hope this helps!

Am I correct? ( top question)
EastWind [94]

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

<1 and <2 are not equal to each other

Let the angle  directly above angle 2 (on the right side of the line) be angle 3

<1 and <3 are corresponding angle, which means they are equal

<2 and <3 are supplementary angles since the form a line

<2 + <3 = 180

We know <1 = <3

<1 + <3 = 180

We are given <1 = 2x+12  and <2 = 3x+18

2x+12 + 3x+18 = 180

Combine like terms

5x+30 = 180

Subtract 30 from each side

5x+30-30 = 180-30

5x= 150

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 150/5

x=30

<1 = 2x+12

Substitute 30 in for x to find angle 1

   = 2*30 +12

   =60+12

  = 72
