Answer:

x = - 2

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to do this is to put - 3x in for y in the second equation.

4x - 2(-3x) = - 20 Watch the signs. You have 2 minus signs.

4x - - 6x = -20 Change - - 6x to 6x

4x + 6x = - 20 Add

10x = - 20 Divide by 10

x = -20/10

x = - 2

============================

Find y

y = - 3x

y = -3 * -2

y = 6

Suppose lines EF and GH are reflected over the line Y equals X to form the lines JK and LM which statement would be true about t

katrin [286]

Answer:

A) JK and LM will be parallel to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

On reflection on $y=x$ line the x co-ordinate changes with y co-ordinate and y co-ordinate changes with x co-ordinate

$(x,y)\rightarrow (y,x)$

Points on line EF

$(0,6) , (-5,-2)$

On reflection of this line on $y=x$ the new points we get for line JK are

$(6,0),(-2,-5)$

Points on line GH

$(-4,9),(-9,1)$

On reflection on y=x line the new points we get for line LM are

$(9,-4),(1,-9)$

Slope of line JK

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x2-x1}\\m=\frac{(-5)-0}{(-2)-6} \\m=\frac{-5}{-8}=\frac{5}{8}$

Slope of line LM

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x2-x1}\\m=\frac{(-9)-(-4)}{1-9} \\m=\frac{-9+4}{-8}=\frac{-5}{-8}\\m=\frac{5}{8}$

For two line to be parallel, their slopes will be same.

$m_{JK} =\frac{5}{8} , m_{LM}=\frac{5}{8}$

Since slopes of lines JK and LM are same therefore we can say that these are parallel to each other.

you pay 3.3 cents per minute for long-distance phone calls on your phone. your phone bill is $3.40 write and solve an equation t

MaRussiya [10]

If you would like to know the number of minutes of long-distance calls you made, you can calculate this using the following steps:

3.3 cents = $0.033
m = $3.40 / 3.3 cents
m = $3.40 / $0.033 = 3.40 / 0.033
m = 103.03 minutes

The correct result would be <span>103.03 minutes.</span>
