We have y = -2 - 2x ;
Then, x + ( -2 - 2x ) = 5 ;
x - 2 - 2x = 5;
- x - 2 = 5 ;
-x = 7 ;
x = - 7;
Finally, y = - 2  - 2 × ( - 7 ) ;
y = - 2 + 14 ;
y = 12;
<span>The x coordinate of the solution to the system is - 7 .</span>

A plumber charges $130 2 hours of work and $235 for 5 hours of workWhat is the of change in dollars per hour
kogti [31]

Answer:

235

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure the rates per hr.

110/3 = 36 2/3

160/5 = 32.

So, the rates are not the same.

Knowing a bit about plumbers, they normally charge a basic fee to just show up, and then they charge per hr.

In cases like these, where we're asked to project to a new data point (in this case an 8-hr job), you should immediately think of a graph. The x-axis would be the hours worked. The y-axis would be the charge for the work (the cost of the job).

We're given two pairs of values:

(3,110) and (5,160).

The next step is to fit a line to them.

y = mx+b is the general equation for a line.

m = the slope = rise/run = change in y / change in x

Call the change in y, dy (for delta y).

Call the change in x, dx (for delta x).

m = dy/dx = 50/2 = 25

The slope is thus 25, which means for each hour, the price goes up by $25. That means the plumber charges $25/hr.

We also know the plumber charges $110 for a 3-hr job. 3*25 = $75. So the base charge would be $110-75 = $35.

y = 25x + 35

Checking this formula at x=3, we know it is 110.

Checking it at x=5, we obtain:

y = 25*5 + 35 = 125 + 35 = 160.

That checks.

Now to figure an 8-hr job, set x=8 and use the equation"

y = 25*8 + 35.

y = 200 + 35.

y = 235.

That means an 8-hr job costs $235.

What if f(-2) for f(x)=1/2x 2 squared
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = \frac{1}{2} x²

To evaluate f(- 2), substitute x = - 2 into f(x)

f(- 2) = \frac{1}{2} × (- 2)² = \frac{1}{2} × 4 = 2
