X= fancy, y= plain
x+y= 7
28x+ 15y=131
solve by substitution
Answer: (-8, -80)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
y = 10x
y = -3x - 104
Substitute "y" with "10x" into the second equation, then solve for x:
10x = -3x - 104
13x = -104 <em>added 3x to both sides</em>
x = -8 <em>divided both sides by 13</em>
Next, substitute -8 for x into the first equation to solve for y:
y = 10(-8)
= -80
Answer:
x = -1 and x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly solve the quadratic expression of
2x^2-6x-8 = 0....it gives you the two brackets of.....(2x-8)(x+1)=0
then...you equate the two brackets to 0.separately
2x-8 = 0....which gives you...x = 4...as the first solution..then..;
x+1 = 0....which gives you...x = -1...as the second solution
Y equals volume of water, x equals time. If they ask to find the coordinates at one minute, then the first thing you should do is set x equal to 1. That leaves two possible answers. Finally you need to decide how much water is lost in one minute. if you need more help leave a comment.
