Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

let the unknown be y (x is used as times(multiplication) )

(y-17)x-6=-138

add /-6 to both sides

y-17x-6/-6=-138/-6

y-17=23

make y independent/add 17 to both sides

y-17+17=23+17

y=40

or in an easier way

-138/-6 =23

23+17=40

simply reversing the question to get the answer

Answer:

We are given that the frame is 2 units wide, which means that we subtract the length of the outer frame by 2 units for each side:

7 - 2 -2 = 3

9 - 2 -2 = 5

Now, we have the length and width for the smaller rectangle, so we use the area formula (area = length*width) to get:

3*5 = 15

R:  3 < y < 9

2nd Graph)

D: -4<x<4

R: -4<y<4

3rd Graph)

-Note that this graph has an open and closed circle. Which means one is open and the other is closed on the interval. I will use brackets to make it easier.

Which of the following graphs best represents the solution to the pair of equations below? y = −x + 6 y = 2x − 3 A coordinate pl
spayn [35]

Answer:

The lines are 

i)  y=-x+6

ii) y=2x-3

The solution of the system of equations is found by equalizing the 2 equations:

-x+6=2x-3

-2x-x=-6-3

-3x=-9

x=-9/(-3)=3

substitute x=3 in either i) or ii):

i)  y=-3+6=3

ii) y=2(3)-3=6-3=3

(the result is the same, so checking one is enough)

This means that the point (3, 3) is a point which is in both lines, so a solution to the system.

In graphs, this means that the lines intersect at (3, 3) ONLY

Answer: The graph where the lines intersect at (3, 3)
