Help please math ..??

Answer:

(3, - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 4y = -11

2x + 3y = -9

Multiply the top equation by 2 and the bottom equation by - 5 to cancel out the x's.

10x - 8y = - 22

- 10x - 15y = 45

Cancel out x's.

-8y = - 22

- 15y = 45

Add like terms.

- 23y = 23

Can't have a negative variable to flip them.

-23 = 23y

Divide.

y = - 1

Input y into one of the equations and solve for x.

2x + 3(-1) = -9

Simplify.

2x -3 = -9

Cancel out -3 by adding 3.

2x = -6

Divide.

x - -3

$5 PAYPAL + BRAINLIEST TO ANSWER THS

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Quadratic Equation:

$3x^2=2x +5$

$\text{Standard Form: } 3x^2-2x-5=0$

From the standard form of a Quadratic Function, we get:

$a=3,\:b=-2,\:c=-5$

Discriminant:

$\Delta=\left(-2\right)^2-4\cdot \:3\left(-5\right)$

$\Delta=\left(-2\right)^2+4\cdot \:3\cdot \:5$

$\Delta=64$

From the discriminant, we conclude that the equation will have two real solutions.

State that:

$b^2-4ac$

$b^2-4ac =0:\text{The equation has 1 real solution}$

$b^2-4ac >0:\text{The equation has 2 real solutions}$

By the way, solving the equation given:

$x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{64}}{2\cdot \:3}$

$x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{64}}{6}$

$x=\frac{2\pm8}{6}$

$x_{1} =\frac{10}{6}=\frac{5}{3}$

$x_{2}=\frac{-6}{6} =-1$

Find the area of the irregularly-shaped hexagon below

Ber [7]

let each box length be 1

for white triangle

area = ½bh

=½(4)(2)

=4

for orange triangle

area=½(2)(3)

=3

for blue marked boxes

each of the box

area=l²

=(1)²

=1

there are 16 boxes

so the total area will be 16

total area of the hexagon = 4+3+16

=23 square units

What is slope intercept form?

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line is written in the slope-intercept form, which is: y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept. In our equation, y = 6x + 2, we see that the slope of the line is 6.

Hope this helps :)

Write the expression in simplest form: 5n - 6 + n - 1

nata0808 [166]

To write this equation in simplest form, we simply need to combine all like terms. The like terms in this particular expression are the terms with an n-variable and the terms with no variable. So we can combine them to simplify our expression.

5n - 6 + n - 1

First step, we can reorder our terms so that like terms are near each other

5n + n - 6 - 1

Now we can combine easily

(5n + n) - (6 - 1)

6n - 5

And that is your simplified expression.

5n - 6 + n - 1 in simplest form is 6n - 5.
Hope that helped! =)
