Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x + 4y = -20

y = x - 4

Put the second equation into the first equation in place of y.

-3x + 4 (x - 4) = -20

Multiply everything in the parenthesis by 4.

-3x + 4x - 16 = -20

Combine like terms.

x - 16 = -20

Add 16 to both sides.

x = -4

Put this into the second equation in place of x.

y = -4 - 4

y = -8

Your solution set is (-4,-8).

Hope this helps!

Find the value of x.

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{x=\sqrt{70}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC and ΔADB are similar (AAA).

Therefore the corresponging sides are in proportion:

$\dfrac{AB}{AD}=\dfrac{AC}{AB}$

Substitute:

$AB=x\\AC=7+3=10\\AD=7$

$\dfrac{x}{7}=\dfrac{10}{x}$ <em>cross multiply</em>

$(x)(x)=(7)(10)\\\\x^2=70\to x=\sqrt{70}$

aleena has a watering can. she uses 3/8 gallonto water her roses and1/3 gallon to water the geraniums . How much water did. Alee

WINSTONCH [101]

The answer is simple to work out you do 3/8 + 1/3

but the denominators are different so you find the lowest common multiple in this case 24 .
the frection is now 9/24 + 8/24 this is 17/24
I changed the fraction by doing this 24(common multiple) divided by 8 (denominator) that's how I got it if you don't understand just ask me
