Yes, they're equivalent values.
To find y, divide the first equation by 2.
y = 4
To find x, use that value for y in the second equation. Add 4, then divide by 2.
15·4 = 2x -4
60 +4 = 2x
64/2 = x = 32
The solution is (x, y) = (32, 4).
Answer:
There may be 1 or 3 tricycles in the parking lot.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since at any point in time, there could be bicycles, tricycles, and cars in the school parking lot, and today, there are 53 wheels in total, if there are 15 bicycles, tricycles, and cars in total, to determine how many tricycles could be in the parking lot, the following calculation must be performed:
13 x 4 + 1 x 3 + 1 x 2 = 57
11 x 4 + 1 x 3 + 3 x 2 = 53
10 x 4 + 3 x 3 + 2 x 2 = 53
8 x 4 + 5 x 3 + 2 x 2 = 51
10 x 2 + 1 x 3 + 4 x 4 = 39
9 x 3 + 1 x 2 + 5 x 4 = 49
Therefore, there may be 1 or 3 tricycles in the parking lot.
Answer:
6 =k
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation for inverse variation
xy = k
We know x=-3 and y = -2
Substituting these values in
(-3) (-2) = k
6 =k
