Answer:

(0, 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x = y - 4 → (1)

2x + 3y = 12 → (2)

Substitute x = y - 4 into (2)

2(y - 4) + 3y = 12 ← distribute and simplify left side

2y - 8 + 3y = 12

5y - 8 = 12 ( add 8 to both sides )

5y = 20 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = 4

Substitute y = 4 into (1) for corresponding value of x

x = 4 - 4 = 0

solution is (0, 4 )

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you know that x = y - 4, you can plug that value into the equation 2x + 3y = 12 for x. This would look like:

2(y - 4) + 3y = 12

Simplify:

2y - 8 + 3y = 12

5y - 8 = 12

add 8 to both sides

5y = 20

divide both sides by 5

y = 4

Now, substitute y = 4 back into the equation x = y - 4:

x = 4 - 4

and simplify:

x = 0

This means that the answer is x = 0 and y = 4.

After a 20% discount and 5% sales tax, a book costs $16.80. What was the original price of the book?
natka813 [3]

<u>Answer:</u>

16.80 x 5% = 0.84

16.80 - 0.84 = 15.96

15.96 x 20% = 3.19

15.96 + 3.19 = 19.15

PLSS HELP ASAP TYSM &lt;33 SORRY I COULDN'T FIND SCIENCE LOLL ​
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Rock D.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can assume that the force that the catapult does is always the same.

So, here we need to remember Newton's second law:

F = m*a

force equals mass times acceleration.

Where acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity.

So, if we want the rock to hit closer to the catapult, the rock must be less accelerated than rock B.

So, we can rewrite:

a = F/m

So, as larger is the mass of the rock, smaller will be the acceleration of the rock after it leaves the catapult (because the mass is in the denominator). So if we want to have a smaller acceleration, we need to choose a rock with a larger mass than rock B.

Assuming that the mass depends on the size, the only one that has a mass larger than rock B is rock D.

So we can assume that rock D is the correct option.

The sum of an infinite geometric series is 450, while the common ratio of the series is 4/ 5 . What is the first term of the ser
pogonyaev

Answer:

answer is 90 for first term

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the terms be  

First term x

We will use the formula s∞=x/1−r to find the sum of an infinite geometric series, where −1<r<1.  

We know the sum and the common ratio, so we'll be solving for x where r =4/5

s∞=x/1−r

450=x/1−4/5

450=x/1/5

450=5x

x=90

this is the first term x1 = 90

we know that common ratio is 4/5, so multiplying the first term by factor 4/5 to get the second term  

90 x 4/5=   72 second term

What is 10^-3 in math
Alborosie
It is 1/1000 or 1/10∧-3
that is because whenever there is a negative exponent put it as the denominator and the numerator by default, if there isn't any, should be one. 
so put it under and then figure it out
