Answer:

y=4 x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x ⇒ I

y=10x-16 ⇒ II

y/2=2x/2

x=y/2 OR 1/2(y)

substitute I in II

y=10(y/2)-16

y=5y-16

SWAP -16 AND y

5y-y=16

4y/4=16/4

y=4

y=2x

(4)/2=2x/2

x=2

You would first plug in y to the other equation. It doesn’t matter which one you do. So it would look like...
2x=10x-16
Then you would move the like terms to one side
2x-10x=-16
-8x = 16
Then make the x alone by dividing -8 on both sides to solve for x.
X= 16/-8
x = -2
Hope this helped!

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse of a function, switch the variables and solve for y.

The inverse of f(n)=-(n+1)^3:

$y=-(n+1)^3$

$n=-(y+1)^3$

$\sqrt[3]{n} =-(y+1)$

$\sqrt[3]{n} =-y-1$

$\sqrt[3]{n} +1=-y$ $-(\sqrt[3]{n} +1)=y$

$-\sqrt[3]{n} -1=y$

Prove that root 7 is irrational by the method of contradiction

Alchen [17]

Let assume that $\sqrt7$ is a rational number. Therefore it can be expressed as a fraction $\dfrac{a}{b}$ where $a,b\in\mathbb{Z}$ and $\text{gcd}(a,b)=1$ .
