Answer:
10 or x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
First we can combine like-terms.
8x+6=86
Then subtract 6 from both sides
8x=80
Divide by 8
x=10
Answer:
(a) (6, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The system of equations has one of them in y= form, so it lends itself to solution by substitution.
__
Using the equation for y to substitute into the first equation, we have ...
2x -y = 10
2x -(-1/2x +5) = 10 . . . . . substitute for y
2x +1/2x -5 = 10 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
5/2x = 15 . . . . . . . . . add 5, collect terms
x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2/5
Using the equation for y, we have ...
y = -1/2(6) +5 = -3 +5
y = 2
The solution is (x, y) = (6, 2).
RS => y - 5 = (8 - 5)/(1 - (-1)) (x - (-1))
y - 5 = 3/2 (x + 1) => slope = 3/2
ST => y - 8 = (-2 - 8)/(7 - 1) (x - 1)
y - 8 = -10/6 (x - 1) = -5/3 (x - 1) => slope = -5/3
TU => y - (-2) = (0 - (-2))/(2 - 7) (x - 7)
y + 2 = 2/5(x - 7) => slope = 2/5
UR => y = 5/(-1 - 2) (x - 2)
y = -5/3 (x - 2) => slope = -5/3
The median is the line joining the midpoints of the non-parallel sides.
Midpoint of RS = ((-1 + 1)/2, (5 + 8)/2) = (0, 13/2)
Midpoint of TU = ((7 + 2)/2, -2/2) = (9/2, -1)
Equation of the line joining (0, 13/2) and (9/2, -1) is given by y - 13/2 = (-1 - 13/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = (-15/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = -15/9x
18y - 117 = -30x
30x + 18y = 117
Given,
A sign company charges $28 per yard for each custom-made banner.
Ms.Gill orders two banners that are each 178 yards long, and one banner that is 258 yards long.
To find,
Total money paid by Ms. Gill.
Solution,
Total length of 2 banners of 178 yards = 356 yards
Third banner is 258 yards long.
Total length of the banners = 356 + 258
= 614 yards
The cost of each banner = $28 per yards.
Total amount paid by Ms. Gill is :
= $28 × 614
= $17,192
Hence, she will pay $17,192 for all the three banners.
Answer:
Ratio [Pam to her brother] = 2:5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Pam saves every two dollar
Her brother saves fives dollar (For every two dollar)
Find:
Ratio [Pam saving and his brothers saving]
Computation:
It is given that if Pam saves $2 her brother saves $5
So,
Ratio [Pam to her brother] = 2/5
Ratio [Pam to her brother] = 2:5
