Answer:

x=14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-y=6

+ -2x+y=8

----------------

5x+(-2x)-y+y=6+8

5x-2x-y+y=6+8

3x=14

x=14/3

I apologize if something is incorrect, please me know how to fix it. Thank you!

What value of b will cause the system to have an infinite
kvasek [131]

Hi there!

The way that an infinite number of solutions is achieved is when the two equations, when solved together, get an answer which is just a number equal to the same number. To do this, first substitute 6x-b in for y in the second equation.

-3x+\frac{1}{2}(6x-b)=-3

-3x+3x-\frac{1}{2}b=-3

-\frac{1}{2}b=-3

Now, we see that b needs to be equal to -3 when multiplied by -1/2. When both sides are divided by -1/2, b becomes equal to 6. Thus, b must be 6.

Check work:

6x-6=y

-3x+\frac{1}{2}(6x-6)=-3

-3x+3x-3=-3

-3=-3

Thus, as they are equal to each other, the answer is correct. b = 6.

Hope this helps!

Evaluate the function at the indicated values. f(x)= 6x^2+ 5x -12
seropon [69]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of the function at the indicated value.

f(x)= 6x^2+ 5x -12

Indicated values are : f(-7), f(0), f(6), f(7)

To find f(-7), put x = -7 in the given function

f(-7)= 6(-7)^2+ 5(-7) -12=247

To find f(0), put x = 0 in the given function

f(0)= 6(0)^2+ 5(0) -12=-12

To find f(6), put x = 6 in the given function

f(6)= 6(6)^2+ 5(6) -12=234

To find f(7), put x = 7 in the given function

f(7)= 6(7)^2+ 5(7) -12=317

Hence, this is the required solution.
