Answer:
2(2y - 1) - y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
I guess the 2 equations are
2x - y = 7
x = 2y - 1
substitution message that you use one equation to express one variable by the other, and then you use that in the other equation to get one equation for one variable. then you solve for that, and use that result in the first equation to since for the second variable.
the equations are already defined that way, that the second equation directly defines x as an excision of y.
so, this needs to be used then in the first equation.
and that makes
2(2y - 1) - y = 7
the correct first step.
It would help if we were able to see the previous exercises to help you with these.
Answer:
a) For a constant increment in x-variable, there is a constant increment in y-variable, for example, for x = 0 to x = 0.5 (increment = 0.5) y-variable goes from 60 to 62 (increment = 2); the same is valid for any couple of (x,y) values. This behaviour is characteristic of linear equations.
b) slope:
m = (increment in y-variable)/(increment in x-variable) = 2/0.5 = 4
y-intercept:
y1 = m*x1 + h
60 = 4*0 + h
60 = h
equation: y = 4x + 60
where y represents scores and x represents hours spent studying
c) The slope indicates that you need to study 1 hour to increase your score in 4 points
The y-intercept indicates that you will get at least a score of 60, even though you hadn't studied
8 1/2 = 8 4/8, so…
8 4/8-2 5/8= 6 1/8
Final answer is…
6 1/8
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
4/5x+2<7/5x+5
subtract 7/5x from both sides
-3/5x<3
multiply both sides by 5/(-3)
x>-5
