Answer: Yes, it is the solution to the system.

=========================================================

Explanation:

The point (-3,-4) means that x = -3 and y = -4 pair up together.

Let's plug those values into the first equation and simplify

y = 2x+2

-4 = 2(-3)+2 .... replace x with -3; replace y with -4

-4 = -6+2

-4 = -4 ... we get a true equation

Let's repeat for the other equation as well

y = x-1

-4 = -3-1

-4 = -4 .... this is also true

Since both equations are true, this means (-3,-4) is the solution to the system. The two lines intersect at (-3,-4).

Answer:

y = 2x + 2

-4 = 2(-3) + 2

-4 = -6 + 2

-4 = -4

y = x - 1

-4 = -3 - 1

-4 = -4

It is the solution

Answer:

$arc\ DC=30^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

The point P is the center of the circle (the drawing is not a scale )

step 1

Find the measure of angle ∠CPD

we know that

$m\angle CPD+150^o=180^o$ ---> by supplementary angles (form a linear pair)

$m\angle CPD=180^o-150^o=30^o$

step 2

Find the measure of arc DC

we know that

Central angle is the angle that has its vertex in the center of the circumference and the sides are radii of it

$arc\ DC=m\angle CPD$ ----> by central angle

therefore

$arc\ DC=30^o$

Round tables seating 8 people and rectangular tables seating 12 people are being used at a banquet for 8th graders. The ratio of

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

36 tables are used to seat the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Round tables = 8 seats

Rectangular tables = 12 seats

Ratio of round tables to rectangular tables = 2:1

Number of students = 336

2. How many tables are used to seat 336 students at the banquet, if no table has an empty seat?

x = Number of rectangular tables

2x = Number of round tables

Let's solve for x, using this equation:

12x + 8 (2x) = 336

12x + 16x = 336

28x = 336

x = 336/28

x = 12 ⇒ 2x = 24

12 + 24 = 36

36 tables are used to seat the students at the banquet: 12 rectangular and 24 round.
