5x - 7y =58
y =-x +2
Using the substitution method, replace y in the first equation with the second equation:
5x - 7(-x+2) = 58
Simplify by using the distribution property:
5x - (-7x) - 14 = 58
Simplify by combining like terms:
12x -14 = 58
Add 14 from each side of the equation:
12x = 72
Divide both sides by 12:
X = 72/12
x = 6
Now you have x, replace x in the second equation and solve for y:
y = -x +2
y = -6 +2
y = -4
X = 6, y = -4
Answer:
D. 29.75
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the mean, you must add up all the numbers and then divide that number by how many numbers you added.
Here,
21 + 23 + 35 + 40
= 119
You added 4 numbers (21, 23, 35, 40),
so, 119 / 4
= 29.75
Hope this helps and a thank won't hurt! :)
Answer:
35.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the scale factor and the height.
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute the -2 to (x+1) you end up with -2x-2=8 (multiplication property). Add 2 to both sides to get rid of the -2 of the left (addition property). 8+2=10. -2x=10 divide the -2 to both sides. x=-5 (division property).
