X=275+55= 330 biked
y=275-55= 220 bus
Answer:
x = -4, y = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Normally, if it's allowed, I would use a graphing calculator which basically turns the equations (-2x+y=4) and (y=
x-2) into two straight lines, which represent the line of possible values that can fit into the equations. However, since you want the value of x and y in both equations to be the same, you have to look for the intersection of the two graphs. I use desmos.com/calculator to just type in the equations and the lines would be drawn automatically. By hovering over the equation, I can get the two values of x and y (the first value is for x, and the second one is for y).
Here is the working if you want to work it out by hand: (I'm using algebra for this one)
-2x+y=4 -------------------------------- Equation 1
y=x-2 ---------------------------------- Equation 2
Substitute Equation 2 into Equation 1:
-2x+x-2=4
Simplify:
-1x-2=4
-1x=4+2
-1x=6
1x=-6
x=-6
3x=-6×2
3x=-12
x=-12÷3
x=-4 ------------------------------------ Equation 3
Substitute Equation 3 into Equation 1:
-2(-4)+y=4
Simplify:
8+y=4
y=4-8
y=-4
Thus, x=-4, y=-4
Answer:
1 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3/2 = 1 1/2 = 1.5
Answer:
x = 10 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Initial deposit = $100
Weakly deposit = $15
Solution:
We need to create an equation where total amount is y is equal to initial deposit plus multiplication of weakly deposit and month x, so the equation is written as.
---------(1)
Where:
Y = Total amount
x = Number of months.
Second thing we need to find the month for y = $250
Now, we substitute y = 250 in equation 1.
x = 10 months
Therefore, we need to required 10 months for $250.
Answer:
A. x=3, y= -6
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 2y = 15
2x + 4y= -18
<em>Solving for x</em>
x-2y=15
<em>Subtract x from both sides</em>
-2y= -x+15
<em>Multiply both sides by -1</em>
2y=x-15
<em>Multiply both sides by 2</em>
4y=2x-30
2x+4y= -18
<em>Subtract 2x from both sides</em>
4y= -2x-18
<u>Combine equations:</u>
-2x-18=2x-30
<em>Add 2x to both sides</em>
-18=4x-30
<em>Add 30 to both sides</em>
12=4x
4x=12
<em>Divide both sides by 4</em>
x=3
Solving for y
x-2y=15
<em>Add 2y to both sides</em>
x=2y+15
<em>Multiply both sides by 2</em>
2x=4y+30
2x + 4y= -18
<em>Subtract 4y from both sides</em>
2x= -4y-18
<u>Combine equations:</u>
-4y-18=4y+30
<em>Add 4y to both sides</em>
-18=8y+30
<em>Subtract 30 from both sides</em>
8y= -48
<em>Divide both sides by 8</em>
y= -6
