Answer:

(2 , 10) or x = 2 & y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x + 8

4x – 2y = -12​

1. Substitute x + 8 in for the y in the other equation.

2. Solve for x

3. Take the solution for x and substitute the number in for the x in y = x + 8.

4. Solve for y.

5. Your answer is the result.

4x - 2(x + 8) = -12                       Distributive Property

4x - 2x - 16 = -12                        Combine like terms

2x - 16 = -12                               Isolate the x, so start by moving -16

    <u>+ 16   +16</u>                              

2x + 0 = 4                                  Delete the 0. It is a place holder you don't need

      <u>2x</u> = <u>4</u>                                 Isolate the x by dividing both terms by 2.

        2    2

        x = 2

y = x + 8                      Substitute the 2 in for x and solve the one step equation.

y = 2 + 8

y = 10

Answer:

x = 14

y = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x + 8

4x - 2y = -12

Solve

_____________

Since we see that the first equation has y alone, we can substitute it into the values of y in the second equation.

4x - 2(x + 8) = -12

Distribute :

4x - (2(x) + 2(8)) = -12

4x - 2x +16 = -12

Combine like terms :

2x + 16 = -12

Subtract 16 from both sides :

2x = -28

Divide 2 from both sides to get x alone :

x = 14

Now that we know what x is, substitute it in the first equation to get y :

y = (14) + 8

y = 22

Shyam invested money in the stock market
sergiy2304 [10]
Given that question: Shyam invested money in the stock market. In the first year, his stock increased 20%. He paid his stock broker $300 and then lost $450. He withdrew $500, and then his remaining investment doubled. Shyam’s investment is now worth $7100. How much was Shyam’s original investment?

The solution is as follows:

Let the amount Shyam invested in the stock market be x, then in the first year his stock increased by 20% giving 1.2x.

He paid his stockbrocker $300 to have 1.2x - $300 left, and he lost $450 to have 1.2x - $300 - $450 = 1.2x - $750 left.

He withdrew $500 to have 1.2x - $750 - $500 = 1.2x - $1,250 left.

His remaining investment doubled to have 2(1.2x - $1,250) = 2.4x - $2,500

Shyam's investment is now worth $7,100 which means that
2.4x - $2,500 = $7,100
2.4x = $7,100 + $2,500 = $9,600
x = $9,600 / 2.4 = $4,000

Therefore, the value of Shyam's original investment is $4,000

Explain how the Quotient of Powers property was used to simplify this expression.
pav-90 [236]

We have been given the expression 2^5/8=2^2

8 can be rewritten as 2^3

Hence, the given expression becomes

2^5/2^3=2^2

After subtracting the exponents on left hand side of the equation we get:

2^2=2^2

we can do it by simplifying 8 to 2^3 to make both powers base two, and subtracting the exponents.
