PLEASE PLEASE HELP SOLVE THE EQUATION USING ELIMINATION 3x+8y=-5 -2x+2y=18

Mathematics
1 answer:
frosja888 [35]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+8y=-5

-2x+2y=18

Ok, so you want to get either x or y to cancel out so lets multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 3.

6x+16y=-10

-6x+6y=54

Now x can cancel out. The new equation is:

22y=44

y=2

Now you input 2 into one of the original problems.

-2x+2(2)=18

-2x+4=18

Now subtract 4 from both sides.

-2x=14

Divide

x=-7

Now check your answer.

-2(-7)+2(2)=18

14+4=18

The developers of a web site are tracking its number of adult users and teenage users. They found that the equation
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

x = 5.7 years after 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

So the year when both the amount of users were the same can be found by using the both equations to solve for x  (since y is the same)

48x + y = 729

we will take the value of y from this equation and use it in the other equation

y = 729 - 48x

135x - 2y = -140

135x - 2(729 - 48x) = -140

135x -1458 + 98x = -140

231x = 1318

x = 1318/231

x = 5.7 years after 2000

Given:• PQRS is a rectangle.• mZ1 = 50°Р21SRWhat is mZ2?130°85°70°65°
Over [174]

To answer this question, we need to recall that: "the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other"

Thus, if we assign the point of intersection of the two diagonals in the rectangle as point O, we can say that the triangle OQR is an "isosceles triangle". Note that this is because the lengths OR and OQ are equal since we know that: "the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other". See the below diagram for clarity.

Now, we have to recall that:

- the base angles of any isosceles triangle are equal. This is a fact, and this means that the angles

- also the sum of all the angles in any triangle is 180 degrees

Now, considering the isosceles triangle OQR, we have that:

\angle OQR+\angle ORQ+\angle ROQ=180^o

Now, since the figure already shows that angle m\angle2+\angle ORQ+50^o=180^oNow, since we have established that the base angles m\angle2+m\angle2+50^o=180^owe can now solve the above equation for m<2 as follows:

\begin{gathered} m\angle2+m\angle2+50^o=180^o \\ \Rightarrow2m\angle2+50^o=180^o \\ \Rightarrow2m\angle2=180^o-50^o \\ \Rightarrow2m\angle2=130^o \\ \Rightarrow m\angle2=\frac{130^o}{2}=65^o \end{gathered}

Therefore, the correct answer is: option D

Given the expotential function f(x) = 4(3)^x find f(0) and f(1)
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

4 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 4(3)^{x} , then

f(0) = 4(3)^{0} = 4 × 1 = 4 [ a^{0} = 1 ]

f(1) = 4(3)^{1} = 4 × 3 = 12
