Solve by substitution
Just plug in y=-x-1 into y+x=3
So we get:
Simplify that:
And since that is not true, that means this system of equations has no solutions!

Answer: (2, 3)</h3>
=================================================
Explanation:
1/4 = 0.25 is the scale factor
Multiply this with each coordinate of the given point
0.25*8 = 2 is the new x coordinate
0.25*12 = 3 is the new y coordinate
So (8,12) moves to (2,3) after applying the dilation
The scale factor k makes 0 < k < 1 true, so the point is closer to the origin after applying the dilation.
--------
Side note: this trick of multiplying the scale factor by each coordinate only works if the dilation is centered at the origin. For any other center, you'll need to apply a translation first, dilate, then translate back again.
Answer: 31
Step-by-step explanation:
179 - 148 = 31
Answer:
74 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
If his cousin is 40 inches tall, and Zach is 6 inches less than twice his height, solve for 40*2-6, which is 74.
Answer:
- table: 14, 16, 18
- equation: P = 2n +12
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter values will be ...
rectangles . . . perimeter
1 . . . 14
2 . . . 16
3 . . . 18
__
The perimeter of a figure is twice the sum of the length and width. Here, the length is a constant 6. The width is n, the number of rectangles. So, the perimeter is ...
P = 2(6 +n) = 12 +2n
Your equation is ...
P = 2n +12 . . . . . . . . perimeter P of figure with n rectangles.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
You may be expected to write the equation using y and x for the perimeter and the number of rectangles. That would be ...
y = 2x +12 . . . . . . . . . perimeter y of figure with x rectangles
