Answer:

x=9,y=27

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x+9,........equation 1

y=4x-9..........equation 2

from equation 1 and 2

we get

2x+9=4x-9

9+9=4x-2x

x=18/2=9

substituting value of x in equation 1

y=2×9+9=18+9=27

Answer:

Your solution is (9, 27) or x = 9, y = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 9

y = 4x - 9

We can see that both of these equations equal y, so we can set them equal to each other.

2x + 9 = 4x - 9

Add 9 to both sides.

2x + 18 = 4x

Subtract 2x from both sides.

18 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2.

9 = x

Now we want to find y. To do this, plug x = 9 back into one of the original equations.

y = 2(9) + 9

Multiply.

y = 18 + 9

Add.

y = 27

Your solution is (9, 27)

Check your answer by plugging x = 9 and y = 27 back into the original equations.

y = 2x + 9

27 = 2(9) + 9

27 = 18 + 9

27 = 27

y = 4x - 9

27 = 4(9) - 9

27 = 36 - 9

27 = 27

Your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!

What is an equation of the line passing between(4, -6) and (12, -8)?*

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

y= -1/4x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to find the slope.

to do this you can use the equation: change in y/change in x which is also y2 - y1/x2-x1

-8 - (-6)/12-4

-2/8

-1/4 = slope

since the line's equation is y = mx + b, we still need to find the y-intercept. we can do this by just plugging in one of the points

-6 = -1/4(4) + b

-6 = -1 + b

-5 = b

so the final equation is y= -1/4x - 5

Answer:

58 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

So I attached a diagram that illustrates the triangle that is formed. We know an angle, as well as the hypotenuse. We are looking for the height, or in other words the opposite side of the angle. There is a trigonometric function defined as: $sin(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ . Using this we can plug in known values and solve for the opposite side, which I'll simply represent as x.
