x = -4 and y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Solve for x :

–8x + 6y = –4

2x + 2y = –20 (times 3)

Elimination

–8x + 6y = –4

6x + 6y = –60

_____________ _

-14x = 56

x = -4

  • Solve for y :

–8x + 6y = –4

2x + 2y = –20 (times 4)

Elimination

–8x + 6y = –4

8x + 8y = –80

_____________ +

14y = -84

y = -6

Height of the top of your head as you bounce on a pogo stick

The "n" and "U" should be drawn as curved lines (I'm drawing using the keys available to me but if this were hand-drawn the graph would be more ~ -curvy/wavy looking)

The Y-axis "Height in Feet": shows the height of their head from the ground in feet as they bounce
The X-axis "Length of Passing Time in Seconds": shows the seconds as they pass while jumping on the pogo stick
The assumption being made: The head isn't starting from 0 feet off the ground so we began the line near the 5-foot mark
Remember to label your x and y axises

You purchase an iPhone for $599 a case for $49 and a charging station for $61. You charge it to your credit card annual interest
mixer [17]

Answer:

$404.13

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you start by adding together 599, 49, and 61, which gives you 709. Then, you want to do 709(1.19) to find the amount he would pay including interest in a year, and your answer is 843.71. You want to next subtract that by 709, so you do 843.71-709, and get 134.71. Finally, since it says 3 years, you have to multiply that by 3, and 134.71(3) gives you your final answer, $404.13. I hope this helped you understand better!

Mai, Clare, and Noah are making signs to advertise the school dance. It takes Mai 6 minutes to complete a sign, it takes Clare 8
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

There is no question here, but suppose you want to find the number of signs they can make in half an hour, the answer is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Times it take to complete a sign.

Mai = 6 minutes

Clare = 8 minutes

Noah = 5 minutes.

Since they keep working for half an hour, which is 30 minutes. Suppose we want to find how many signs they can all make in that time, all we have to do is determine how many signs each person can make and then sum it.

Mai, who makes one every 6 minute, can make only 30/6 signs in 30 minutes. 30/6 = 5

Mai can make 5 signs in that time

Clare, who makes one every 8 minute, can make only 30/8 signs in 30 minutes. 30/8 = 3.75

She can only make 3 signs.

Noah, who makes one every 5 minute, can make only 30/5 signs in 30 minutes. 30/5 = 6

He can only make 6 signs.

In total, they can make 6 + 5 + 3 = 14 signs in half an hour.
