What is the solution to the system of equations?

Mathematics

MariettaO [177]3 years ago

Answer:

x=-4 y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by substitution.

−3x−8y=20;y=5x+19

Rewrite equations:

y=5x+19;−3x−8y=20

Step: Solve y=5x+19for y:

y=5x+19

Step: Substitute5x+19foryin−3x−8y=20:

−3x−8y=20

−3x−8(5x+19)=20

−43x−152=20(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−43x−152+152=20+152(Add 152 to both sides)

−43x=172

−43x

−43

=

172

−43

(Divide both sides by -43)

x=−4

Step: Substitute−4forxiny=5x+19:

y=5x+19

y=(5)(−4)+19

y=−1(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=−4 and y=−1

The area of the rectangular faces of the box are shown . What is the volume of the box
Gnoma [55]
Label the 3 distinct sides of the box.  I arbitrarily chose the letters a, b and c.
Use the info about areas as follows:

ab=54 in^2
ac=90 in^2
bc=60 in^2

Here you have 3 equations in 3 unknowns (a, b and c), which is enough info to use to determine a, b and c.  Then the volume of the box is a*b*c.

Example:  bc = 90, but c = 60/b.  You could subst. 60/b for c in the 2nd and 3rd equation, which will eliminate c completely and leave you with 2 equations in 2 unknowns.

Continuing this procedure, I determined that a=9, b=6 and c=10.  Thus, the volume of the box is V = 9*6*10 = 540 cubic inches (answer)

The slope of the line that passes through the points (-2, -3) and (8, -3) is....
andre [41]

Answer:

<h2>Zero</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-2,\:-3\right),\:\\\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(8,\:-3\right)\\\\m=\frac{-3-\left(-3\right)}{8-\left(-2\right)}\\\\m=0

What is the y-intercept of the line shown?
lys-0071 [83]
Simple.....

always remember the y-intercept is where your line hits the y-axis... or where it hits the vertical axis...

As we can see this line hits the y-axis at (0,3)-->> y-intercept=3

Thus, your answer.

Answer:

= 54 miles per hour

Showing WorkThis is a fraction equal to

324 miles ÷ 6 hours

We want a unit rate where

1 is in the denominator,

so we divide top and bottom by 6

324 miles

÷ 6

6 hours

÷ 6

=

54 miles

1 hour

=
