Answer:

Your solution is (-10/7, 92/7)

Step-by-step explanation:

12x + y = -4

y = 2x + 16

To use substitution, we want to plug one variable's equation into the other equation.

We can see that y is already solved for us. Plug y into the first equation.

12x + y = -4

12x + (2x + 16) = -4

Combine like terms.

14x + 16 = -4

Subtract 16 from both sides.

14x = -20

Divide both sides by 14.

x = -20/14

x = -10/7

Now that we know x, we will plug it into one of the other equations.

y = 2x + 16

y = 2(-10/7) + 16

Multiply.

y = -20/7 + 16

Add.

y = -20/7 + 112/7

y = 92/7

Your solution is (-10/7, 92/7)

Hope this helps!

Translate the following sentence into an algebraic inequality: Three times a number, v, added to eight is greater than or equal

Kazeer [188]

Hi there!

»»————-　★　————-««

I believe your answer is:

$3v + 8 \geq 22$

»»————-　★　————-««

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{Breaking down the phrase...}}\\\\\text{Three times a number, v, added to eight is greater than or equal to twenty-two. }\\------------------\\\rightarrow \text{"Three times a number, v..."} - 3v \text{ This expresses the product of '3' and 'v'.}\\\\\rightarrow \text{"added to eight..."} - + 8 \text{ The product gets added to eight.}\\\\--------------\\\text{The First Part Is:}}\\\\3v + 8\\---------------\\\rightarrow \text{is greater than or equal to twenty-two. } - \geq 22$

$\text{The value of '3v + 8' is greater than or equal to 22.}\\---------------\\\text{\underline{Putting it together, we would have:}}\\\\\boxed{3v + 8 \geq 22}}$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Find the average rate of change of the function defined by the following table

prohojiy [21]

In short, the average rate of change is plainly the slope of the set, so we can pick any two points off there, say 2, 35 and 10, 115,

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{35})\qquad 
(\stackrel{x_2}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{115})
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{115-35}{10-2}\implies \cfrac{80}{8}\implies 10$
