Answer:

x = 1, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Original equations:

x+y=3\\2x+5y=12

Substitute y and solve for x:

y=3-x\\2x+5y=12

2x+5(3-x)=12

2x+15-5x=12

-3x=-3

x=1

Plug in x to solve for y:

1+y=3

y=2

x = 1, y = 2

Note: You can also substitute x and solve for y, then plug in y to solve for x. I did not do that here.

Answer:

x+y=3

x=3-y equation 1

2x+5y=12

2(3-y)+5y=12

6-2y+5y=12

6+3y=12

3y=12-6

y=6÷3

y=2 equation 2

again ,

putting value of equation 2 in equation 1

x=3-y

x=3-2

x=1

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!

Answer:

y = -2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form of an equation is written as

y = mx + c              ...............(i)

Where m is the slope and c is the constant

Now we Know that the equation is

y + 2 = -2(x-5)

and the given points are

m= -2

x = 5

and y= -2

Putting these values in equation (i) to find the value of c

y = mx + c

it becomes

-2 = -2(5) + c

-2 = -10 + c

Adding 10 on both sides

-2 + 10 = -10 + 10 + c

8 = c

or c=8

Now we have the values of m and c

where m= -2 and c = 8

Point slope form of an equation is

y = mx + c

putting the values of m and c to get equation in slope intercept form is

y = (-2)x + 8

or

y = -2x + 8


Other method:

The given point slope form is

y + 2 = -2(x-5)

We have to change it in y= mx + c      form

so solving it

y + 2 = -2x + 10

Subtracting 2 from both sides

y + 2 -2 = -2x + 10 -2

y = -2x + 8

which is same is

y=mx + c

so the required equation is

y = -2x + 8

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

(3x + 5)(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x(3x + 5) - 4(3x + 5) ← factor out (3x + 5) from each term

= (3x + 5)(x - 4) ← in factored form

A survey of a random sample of voters shows that 29% plan to vote for Martin and 71% plan to vote for
Iteru [2.4K]

Range=±7%

Martin=71%, Lang=29%

Range for Martin=71%±7%

So, highest %=71%+7%=78%

Lowest %=71%-7%=64%

Therefore,range for Martin is between 64%-78% which is 14%
