Answer:

(2,1) is an example of an ordered pair that is a solution to the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following equation:

$3x - y = 5$

Finding a solution:

To find an ordered pair (x,y) that is a solution to this equation, first we attribute a value to one of the variables, and then replace in the equation and find the other.

I am going to attribute $y = 1$

$3x - y = 5$

$3x - 1 = 5$

$3x = 6$

$x = \frac{6}{3}$

$x = 2$

(2,1) is an example of an ordered pair that is a solution to the equation.

19. find the value of z.<br><br><br><br> PLEASEEEEE HELLPPPPPPP

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

6sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use the Right Triangle Altitude Theorem.

There are two parts to this theorem.

Here is the part you need for this problem.

If the altitude is drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle, the length of each leg of the right triangle is the geometric mean of the segment of the hypotenuse adjacent to the leg and the entire hypotenuse.

In this case, you end up with this proportion:

Length of leg: z

Length of entire hypotenuse = 8 + 1 = 9

Length of segment of hypotenuse adjacent to leg of interest: 8

8/z = z/9

z^2 = 72

z = sqrt(72)

z = sqrt(36 * 2)

z = 6sqrt(2)

If bcd~gef find value of x

ddd [48]

Answer:

$x = 13$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment

Required

Find x

From the attachment, we have:

$BC = x + 4$

$BD = 2x - 7$

$GE = 51$

$GF = 57$

Because both triangles are similar, we use the following equivalent ratios:

$BC : BD = GE : GF$

Substitute values for each parameter

$x + 4 : 2x- 7 = 51 : 57$

Convert to fractions

$\frac{x + 4}{2x- 7} = \frac{51 }{ 57}$

Simplify the right-hand side

$\frac{x + 4}{2x- 7} = \frac{17}{19}$

Cross Multiply

$19(x + 4) = 17(2x - 7)$

$19x + 76 = 34x - 119$

Collect Like Terms

$19x - 34x = -76 - 119$

$-15x = -195$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{-195}{-15}$

$x = 13$

If the consumption function is C = $200 billion + 0.5Y, Note: some values are in 'trillions' and others are in 'billions'. (

Strike441 [17]

Answer: The marginal propensity to consume (MPC) in the given equation is 0.5.

The formula above is in slope intercept form. The MPC is like the slope of the equation. It gives the change in consumption, C, over the change in income, Y.

For example, if we let Y = 1, then the consumption will go from 200 to 200.5. It was a change of 0.5 over 1. Or just 0.5.
