Answer:
The solution is x = -2, y = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start with the equation 3x + y = -9
Substitute the y for 5x+7 seen in the second equation
Now you have 3x + (5x+7) = -9
Lets solve:
Let's add the x's
Now we have 8x + 7 = -9
Substracy seven from each side
Now we have 8x = -16
Now let's divide 8 on each side
Now we have x = -2
Now lets plug in -2 to the second equation
The second equation is y = 5x+7
When we plug in -2 we get y=5(-2)+7
We multiply
We now have y = -10+7
Add
y = -3
The solution is x = -2, y = -3
Answer:
I'd swap with one on the table (the left one) but with my luck it would be a sword made of rubber
The degree refers to the x to some exponent where the highest exponent is the degree.
Degree: 3
The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the term we just found(of the highest exponent)
Leading Coefficient: 1
The constant term is the term without an x in it.
Constant Term: 1
Answer:
reggie made an error
the correct scale factor is 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
we want to get from A to A', B to B', and ultimately C to C'
to get there, we must multiply each value in each point by the scale factor.
let's start out with reggie's scale factor. he multiplies each value in C by 3/2 to get to C'. we can try this out with one point, e.g. A
for A: 3/2 * (-12, -6) = (-18, -9). this is not A' = (-8, -4)! thus, 3/2 cannot be the scale factor
now, onto hillary's scale factor of 2/3
for A: 2/3 * (-12, -6) = (-8, -4). this is A'! thus, hillary is correct and reggie made an error
the correct scale factor is thus hillary's: 2/3
