Which coordinate pairs make the equation x-9y=12 true?

asambeis [7]

Answer:

(12,0) and (3, -1) and (0,-4/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find if a point makes an equation true, just substitute its x and y values in in the equation and simplify.

1) Let's test the point (12,0). Substitute 12 for x and 0 for y in the equation:

$x-9y=12\\(12)-9(0)=12\\12-0=12\\12=12$

12 does equal 12, so (12,0) makes the equation true.

2) Let's test the point (0, 12). Substitute 0 for x and 12 for y in the equation:

$x-9y=12\\(0)-9(12) = 12\\0-108 = 12\\-108 = 12$

However, -108 does not equal 12, so (0,12) does not make the equation true.

3) Let's test the point (3, -1). Substitute 3 for x and -1 for y in the equation:

$x-9y=12\\(3)-9(-1) = 12\\3 + 9 = 12\\12 = 12$

12 does equal 12, so (3, -1) makes the equation true.

4) Let's test the point (0, -4/3). Substitute 0 for x and -4/3 for y in the equation:

$(0) -9(-\frac{4}{3} ) = 12\\0 + \frac{36}{3} = 12\\0 + 12 = 12 \\12 = 12$

12 does equal 12, so (0, -4/3) makes the equation true.

Can you help me please

Answer:

$log_372 = 3.8928$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$log_38 = 1.8928$

Required

Evaluate $log_372$

We have:

$log_372 = log_3(8 *9)$

Apply law of logarithm

$log_372 = log_38 +log_39$

Express 9 as 3^2

$log_372 = log_38 +log_33^2$

Evaluate the exponents

$log_372 = log_38 +2log_33$

$log_33 = 1$ .

So:

$log_372 = log_38 + 2 * 1$

$log_372 = log_38 + 2$

Substitute $log_38 = 1.8928$

$log_372 = 1.8928 + 2$

$log_372 = 3.8928$

Two trains are 500 miles apart when they first enter a collision course. If, after two hours, the distance between them is 300 m

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The faster train goes 60mph

Step-by-step explanation:

s= speed

s+20 is the faster train.

Then you are given:

200/s+s+20=2

200=2*(2s+20)

4s+40=200

4s=160

s=40 is the slower train

40+20= speed of faster one

s=60 ;)
