2x-y and 7y= -7 +3x solve by substitution

Mathematics
1 answer:
miss Akunina [59]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -7/11, y = -14/11

Step-by-step explanation:

2x = y ------- (1)

7y = -7+3x -------- (2)

from (1)

2x = y

y = 2x ------- (3)

substitute (3) into (2)

7y = -7+3x

7(2x) = -7+3x

14x = -7+3x

14x-3x = -7

11x = -7

x = -7/11

substitute x = -7/11 into (3)

y = 2x

y = 2(-7/11)

y = -14/11

x = -7/11, y = -14/11

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x^2+42x    The greatest common factor is 6x so we have:

6x(x + 7).

x^2 - 7x - 30

Note that:  + 3 * -10 = -30 and + 3 - 10 = -7 so the factors are:

(x - 10)(x + 3).

x^2 + 9x + 20

Note that + 5 * +4 = +20 and +4 + 5 = + 9;

= (x + 5)(x + 4).

x^2 - 14x + 48

Note that -6 * -8 = 48  and -6 - 8 = -14 so:

= (x - 6)(x - 8).

2x^2 + 21x - 11

When the leading coefficient is greater than 1 we can use

the ac method:

2 * -11 = -22

Now  we need 2 numbers whose sum is + 21 and whose product is -22.

They are +22 and -1. So we write:

2x^2 + 21x - 11

= 2x^2 + 22x - 1x - 11     Factor this by grouping:

=  2x(x + 11) - 1(x + 11)

The x + 11 is common so the answer is:

(2x - 1)(x + 11).

5a^2 - 125       The GCF is 5 so we have:

5(a^2 - 25)    Now we have the difference of 2 squares in the parentheses so

this is  5(a - 5)(a + 5).

Three friends each have some ribbon. Carol has 90 inches of ribbon, Tino has 7.5 feet of ribbon, and Baxter has 3.5 yards of rib
erastovalidia [21]

Answer: 306 inches or 25.5 feet or 8.5 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Carol has 90 inches of ribbon, Tino has 7.5 feet of ribbon, and Baxter has 3.5 yards of ribbon.

1 feet = 12 inches

length of ribbon Tino has = 12 x 7.5 = 90 inches

1 yard = 36 inches

length of ribbon Baxter has = 3.5 x 36 = 126 inches

Total ribbon they have = (length of ribbon Carol has) + (length of ribbon Tino has) + (length of ribbon Baxter has)

= (90+90+126) inches

= 306 inches

In feet , Total ribbon = \dfrac{306}{12}\text{ feet}   [\text{ 1 inch}=\dfrac{1}{12}\text{ feet}]

=\text{25.5 feet}

In yards, Total ribbon =\dfrac{25.5}{3}\text{ yards}    [\text{1 feet}=\dfrac{1}{3}\text{ yard}]

=\text{ 8.5 yards}

Hence, the total length of ribbon the three friends have is 306 inches or 25.5 feet or 8.5 yards.

What is the solution to the equation 3c/8 = c+4/4
saul85 [17]

Answer:

c=8

Step-by-step explanation:

3c/8 = (c+4)/4

We can use cross products to solve

3c          c+4

-----  =   ----------

8             4

 3c*4 = 8 *(c+4)

12c = 8c+32

Subtract 8c from each side

12c-8c = 32

4c = 32

Divide by 4

4c/4 = 32/4

c =8
