D, Because the equation must be in slope intercept (y=mx+b) and since it is going upwards (all positive nunbers) then the slope would be positive as well. I hope this helps!
<h3>The solution as an ordered pair is (x,y) = (2,2)</h3><h3>x = 2 and y = 2 pair up together.</h3>
===============================
Work Shown:
4x+2y = 12
4x+2( y ) = 12
4x+2( 2x-2 ) = 12 ... replace y with 2x-2
4x+2( 2x ) + 2( -2 ) = 12 ... distribution rule
4x+4x-4 = 12
8x-4 = 12
8x-4+4 = 12+4 ... add 4 to both sides
8x = 16
8x/8 = 16/8 ... divide both sides by 8
x = 2 is the first part of the answer
Use x = 2 to find y
y = 2x-2
y = 2(2)-2 ... replace x with 2
y = 4-2
y = 2 is the second part of the answer
So here is what you would do:
lets just pretend that there is no x in the equation
so this is what the equation would look like:
first, is 4 to the power of 2=16 and now we are going to put the x back into the equation so: 4x to the power of 2, but we did the exponents so, now x is the missing number. We can use the 32 because it is the solution to the equation. So we would do 32-16=16 so the missing number is 16 so x=16
Answer: x=16
Answer:
Any number smaller than 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You would graph this by wrighting a solid, filled in circle with an arrow point toward the negative numbers, because those numbers are smaller than 2
6. One variable only so pretty straightforward.
length-x+4
width-x
x+x+4=80
2x=76
x=38
x+4=42
answer: length 42cm and width 38cm
7. Another money problem!
n-# of nickels
q-# of quarters
n=3+q
0.05n+0.25q=2.85
Substitution works like a charm!
0.05(3+q)+0.25q=2.85
0.15+0.05q+0.25q=2.85
0.3q=2.7
q=9
n=3+q
n=3+9
n=12
answer: 9 nickels and 12 quarters
8. One variable situation again.
Ann's money-2b+9
Betty's money-b
b+2b+9=60
3b=51
b=17
2b+9=43
answer: Ann has $43 and Betty has $17.
9. # of red m&m's-x+1
# of blue m&m's-x
x+1+x=13
x=6
x+1=7
answer: 6 blue and 7 red m&m's
10. a-number of adult tickets
s-number of student tickets
a+s=785 ----> a=785-s
5a+2s=3280
5(785-s)+2s=3280
-3s=-645
s=215
a+s=785
a+215=785
a=570
answer: 215 children tickets and 570 adult tickets
