Answer:
2x-y=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 9 = 2(x + 5)
y + 9 = 2x + 10 [distribute]
y = 2x + 1 [subtract 9 from both sides]
y - 2x = 1 [subtract 2x from both sides]
-2x + y = 1 [put x first]
2x - y = -1 [multiply by -1 to make x coefficient positive]
Answer:
(x, y) = (3, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
given the 2 equations
2x + 3y = 9 → (1)
x + 5y = 8 → (2)
multiplying (2) by - 2 then adding to (1) will eliminate the term in x
multiply (2) by - 2
- 2x - 10y = - 16 → (3)
add 1(1) and (3) term by term
(2x - 2x) + (3y - 10y) = (9 - 16)
- 7y = - 7 ( divide both sides by - 7 )
y = 1
Substitute y = 1 in either (1) or (2) and solve for x
(1) : 2x + 3 = 9 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 3
Solution is (3, 1 )
Answer: y=−2x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
X = measure of each of the legs
"perimeter is 8 more than 2 times one of the legs" ---> P = 2x+8
P = 28 is the given perimeter
So,
P = 2x+8
28 = 2x+8
2x+8 = 28
2x = 20
x = 10
If x = 10, then the two legs add up to x+x = 10+10 = 20
Leaving P-20 = 28-20 = 8 inches left over for the base
You have the correct answer (choice D, 8 inches) though your steps are a bit confusing at some parts. Such as the part where you wrote 2x = 10 twice. I think I know what you were trying to say.
