Answer:
One solution
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + y = 8
15x + 15y = 14
Lets solve using substitution, first we need to turn "5x + = 8" into "y = mx + b" or slope - intercept form
So we solve for "y" in the equation "5x + y = 8"
5x + y = 8
Step 1: Subtract 5x from both sides.
5x + y − 5x = 8 − 5x
Step 2: 5x subtracted by 5x cancel out and "8 - 5x" are flipped
y = −5x + 8
Now we can solve using substitution:
We substitute "-5x + 8" into the equation "15x + 15y = 14" for y
So it would look like this:
15x + 15(-5x + 8) = 14
Now we just solve for x
15x + (15)(−5x) + (15)(8) = 14(Distribute)
15x − 75x + 120 = 14
(15x − 75x) + (120) = 14(Combine Like Terms)
−60x + 120 = 14
Step 2: Subtract 120 from both sides.
−60x + 120 − 120 = 14 − 120
−60x = −106
Divide both sides by -60

Simplify

Now that we know the value of x, we can solve for y in any of the equations, but let's use the equation "y = −5x + 8"





















So there is only one solution to the equation.
Answer:
C. (-1.5, 8.875)
Step-by-step explanation:
on a coordinate plane if point(x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is divided by a point p in ratio of m:n then coordinate of point p is given by
p = (nx1 + mx2/ m+n, ny1+my2/m+n)
_______________________________________________
Given point
A (-9, 4) and B (11, 17)
ratio 3:5
m:n = 3:5
m+n = 3+5 = 8
coordinate of point p that partition AB
x = (5*-9 + 3*11) / 5+3 y = (5*4 + 3*17) / 5+3
x = (-45 + 33) / 8 y = (20 + 51) / 8
x = (-12) / 8 y = (71) / 8
x = -3 / 2 = -1.5 y = 8.875
Thus, coordinate of point p is (-1.5, 8.875).
Subtracting -9 from any number is the same as

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To isolate <em>a</em>, we add -3.75 to both sides.
<em>a</em>-(-3.75)=6.11
<em>a</em>-(-3.75)<u><em>+(-3.75)</em></u>=6.11<u><em>+(-3.75)</em></u>
<em>a</em>=6.11<em><u>+(-3.75)</u></em> Simplifying, we get:
<em>a</em>=2.36
